Individual and Organization accounts
INDIVIDUAL ACCOUNTS
Each person who has an account with Facilitron has an individual account. This account is for persons who are requesting to use public facilities on behalf of themselves and not on behalf of an organization.
For example, I want to teach a photography class and use a classroom at a public school to conduct the class. I am requesting this on behalf of myself, or through my individual account.
REQUESTING ON BEHALF OF AN ORGANIZATION
An individual account can be associated with one or more organizations so that the requester may request on behalf of any of those organizations rather than on behalf of themselves as in the example above.
For example, in addition to my photography teaching class (above), I'm also the head of a youth sports organization and I routinely request to use sports fields at a public school to hold our organization's events. In this case, I'm requesting on behalf of the youth sports organization (Insurance requirements and approved rate categories may differ from that of an individual request). I must select my organization in the application/checkout process.
ASSOCIATING AN INDIVIDUAL ACCOUNT WITH AN ORGANIZATION
If an individual account is not associated with an organization and that organization already has an account with Facilitron, you must be added to the account by the account owner. (See the support article "Associating Users With Organization Accounts"). Creating a duplicate organization with the same name will not work.
If you are the designated point person of your organization and it doesn't already have an account, you may create a new organization of which you will be the account owner and you will be able to add other users to your organization's account.
