As of 2419, the ‘Include District Staff’ option in Messenger 2.0 tools will be placed behind a tool right. Those with the tool right can message anyone under the district staff category. District staff qualify as staff who do not have a district assignment or only have district assignment(s) at schools without a calendar in the active year.
District Staff Tool Right Details
- Users with access to message staff within Messenger 2.0 will maintain the ability to message school staff associated with any calendar they have access to.
- Users with an SIS Product Security role will maintain the ability to message district staff. The new tool right must be granted to any other user needing this ability.
- If messages that include district staff were previously scheduled, they will not be impacted and will still be delivered to all previously included recipients, including district staff.
- If a scheduled message or template is opened and the user does not have the district staff tool right, an alert will display informing them that the message has been saved with district staff recipients and the user no longer has access.
