How should we handle accounts for volunteers or temporary workers?

For volunteers or temporary workers, we recommend that each user has an individual login to access Altru. There are no security ramifications if they create a Blackbaud ID with their personal email address and your site administrator will be able to add their account to your organization's site ID on blackbaud.com. Also, Altru allows unlimited logins, so you can add as many users as you need.

When a user leaves your organization, you should disable their access in Altru. From the Application Users page, mark their user record as inactive. You can also have your site administrator remove them from your site ID on blackbaud.com. For users who later return to your organization, you can easily mark them active again in Altru.
