Web Admins can now access the database of volunteers online. Viewing and updating volunteer profiles has never been easier!
VSP 6.1
Always With You
VSP 6.1 introduces mobile and web-based scheduling, letting you manage volunteers and schedules from the VSP App or any web-enabled device. This is the first in a series of updates that will bring more of VSP’s functionality to the web! Keep reading for other exciting updates.
Mobile and Web-Based Scheduling
Web Admins are a new type of administrator that have web-based access to Volunteer Scheduler Pro. The interface has been designed from the ground up to work on any device, giving you the flexibility to work from a laptop, tablet, or phone.
Import Custom Fields
Do you use custom fields to track volunteer information, like background checks, birthdays, or emergency contact info? It’s now easier than ever to add or update this information for multiple people at once using the web-based import.
Web-Based Repeating Assignments
Do you have volunteers that serve on a regular, repeating rotation? Now both Leaders and Web Admins can manage these Preassignments online or through the VSP App.
Secure Auto-Login Links
Volunteers can now access the Web Terminal without logging in. Email links are now encrypted in a JSON web token. This means a volunteer’s info stays secure and it’s quicker to find subs, sign up for empty positions, and keep preferences up-to-date. It also means fewer password reset requests from volunteers!

FAQs
How do I set up a new Web Admin?
Web Admins must first be added as a volunteer, then they can be given Web Admin privileges from the Web Terminal Settings. Get step-by-step instructions on how to set a volunteer as a Web Admin.
How do Web Admins access VSP?
Web Admins can access VSP’s Admin view through the VSP Mobile App or when they log in to the Web Terminal. They can navigate between the Volunteer, Schedule, and Announcements pane.
What is the difference between a Web Admin and a Leader?
Web Admins have access to all volunteers, shifts, and services. Leaders can be given access to only the volunteers, shifts, and services in their area of responsibility. As we continue to transition more VSP functionality to the web, Web Admins will have greater access to other areas of the program, too.
