How to Schedule Volunteers for Multiple Roles Using Non-Conflict Settings in Elvanto

This article explains how to adjust the settings in Elvanto so volunteers can be scheduled for more than one position during the same service. This feature is useful when a volunteer can serve in multiple roles where the responsibilities don’t overlap. In Elvanto, we refer to these as "non-conflicts."

Example

For instance, if someone volunteers for both the set-up team and the hospitality team on Sundays, you can configure a non-conflict setting, allowing them to serve in both positions. By default, a volunteer can only serve in one role per service, so this setting is important for those who can handle multiple responsibilities.

How to Add Non-Conflicts Between Positions 

  1. Log into Elvanto as an Admin. 
  2. Navigate to the Settings.
  3. Click on Departments.
