Put the Right Tools in Your Team's Hands

A busy flight school runs on shared responsibility. Someone handles reservations, someone helps new members get started, and someone reviews the month's billing. Those jobs do not all need the same access. School owners can now give instructors and employees the specific tools their work requires, while keeping control of who can do what.

Start with the job someone actually does

The school member controls separate everyday scheduling access from responsibilities such as managing reservations, maintaining resources, handling member requests, and working with invoices. An instructor who helps run the schedule can receive that responsibility without automatically receiving the school's billing tools.

Billing duties can be divided further. Working on open invoices, changing closed invoices, recording payments, managing the product catalog, and reviewing reports are separate responsibilities. That makes it possible to give a front-desk colleague useful access while reserving financial decisions for the people you choose.

For example, a team member might need to prepare an invoice but ask a manager to handle its payment. Another colleague might review billed activity without editing invoices at all. The owner can build access around those real working arrangements instead of making everyone an administrator.

Make member access easier to understand

Students and renters also have school-specific access settings. Owners can choose blocked, view-only, or standard Schedule access, subject to the school's reservation options. Personal billing visibility is a separate choice: no access, a summary, or the member's own detailed records.

Seeing a personal invoice does not give someone permission to manage the school's invoices. Similarly, ordinary member scheduling is different from being entrusted with the wider school schedule. Keeping those choices separate helps owners explain access to new members and adjust it as responsibilities change.

Set a starting point, then handle the exceptions

Role defaults give new students, instructors, and employees a consistent starting point. Owners can still adjust an individual's permissions when that person's work differs from the normal role.

Changing a default does not quietly rewrite every existing member's access. When you want to apply a default to current members, the bulk-apply workflow lets you preview the affected people and changes before confirming. That is useful when reorganizing front-desk coverage or standardizing how a new group of instructors joins the school.

Access belongs to the individual school relationship. For an instructor working with two schools, a change at one school does not rewrite the other school's arrangements. Read more about using one account across multiple schools.

Build a team that can share the workload

These member and delegation controls do not require Pro; individual tools still follow their own availability and school permissions. If you are building out your operation, create your school account, then explore Pro and join the early-bird list for the broader school toolkit. Start with clear responsibilities, and put the appropriate tools behind each one.
