Relationships in the Console are as follows: A Person can have the following relationships to Companies:

  • Owner
  • Associate
  • Tech Support
  • General Contact

A Person can have the following relationships to Acountability Policies:

  • Accountability Contact

Company A Company can have the following relationship to an Accountability Policy:

People, Companies, and Accountability Policies:

The three types of records all play together: the flexible design of the DrawBridge Console accomodates the association of a single Person record to multiple entities (Companies/Accountability Policies). This can be leveraged to enable one Person to have access to the settings and reports of multiple companies.

Person

A Person can have the following relationships to Companies:

  • Company Owner
  • Company Associate
  • Tech Support
  • General Contact

A Person can have the following relationships to Acountability Policies:

For example, Person david_martin can be a Company Associate of Fred's Construction, as well as an Accountability Contact in the Golden Sands Christian Fellowship Accountability Policy, which will give him access to all member companies of the Golden Sands Christian Fellowship accountability policy.

  • Company Owner (requires association with a Company record)
  • Appstore Access
  • Can Submit Autofix Requests
  • Can Submit Sites for Human Review
  • Media Viewer
  • Company Media Room Admin
