Volunteer Request Tool
The VSys Live Volunteer Request Tool is a special-purpose module that lets you delegate the creation of volunteer opportunities to staff throughout your organization, and even to outside community partners.
With the Volunteer Request Tool, authorized people can:
- Submit requests for volunteers for their department, agency, organization, etc.
- Edit and cancel open requests.
- View volunteer assignments and slots.
- Run designated reports about openings and assigned volunteers.
...all from within any standard web browser!
(The Volunteer Request Tool is an optional add-on for VSys Live.)
Requests
Volunteer requests can be for one-time or recurring/ episodic volunteers, plus options for interns and flex positions.
- Limit the people who are allowed to make requests.
- Set the job properties, required fields, other details.
- Approve requests before they go live.
Workflow
VSys One administrators approve, edit, or reject requests.
- Use VSys Security to limit who can approve openings.
- Define your own custom workflow.
- On approval, job openings will be posted to VSys Live for actual volunteers to sign up for.
