Understanding User Views

Useful information for food banks, donor branches, donor organisations, charity branches, and charity organisations.

The User View is a filter that determines what information a User can see depending on their User Permissions. All Users login to Foodiverse as a particular type of User role. The User View filter is available in the Reports module of the Foodiverse application and will be rolled out to other modules in time.

The User View filter will be set according to your role permissions when you login to Foodiverse.

e.g. If your User Type is Org Admin, the User View filter will default to an Org Admin. If a user changes their default ‘user view’, this selected user view will follow them to other pages of the platform where ‘user view’ needs to be selected.
