The proper management of boards allows for the full use of board-connected functionalities. These activities include but are not limited to minutes roll calls, e-voting, and delivery of Board Portal notifications. This article will show you how to add, edit, and manage boards.
Important Notes
To manage these settings, a user must have the "Access to User and Global Site Settings" permission and the "Has Access to Meetings Site Settings" permission in their User Profile.
To assign a member to a board, they must have an account listed in the Users section of the User and Global Settings.
A board alone has little functionality. Assign the board to a Meeting Type to activate board-connected functionality.
