What access level does our strata manager get?
Quick answer
Whatever the committee decides, page by page — from full visibility across the portal down to a handful of specific pages such as maintenance and compliance. There's no fixed default that assumes a manager needs to see everything.
Key takeaways
- Manager access is configured page by page, not a fixed package
- Committee Hub is commonly kept private even when other pages are shared
- Changing managers is a permissions change, not a data migration
Because Flex Strata is built around page-level access control, a manager's visibility isn't a fixed package — it's whatever the committee configures.
Common manager access patterns
- Full visibility, mirroring what the committee itself sees, for committees that want the manager fully looped in
- Operational pages only — maintenance, contractor register, compliance and documents — while Committee Hub stays private to the committee
- Read-only access to specific pages, useful where the manager needs visibility but the committee wants to retain control of edits
- No standing access at all, with the manager instead invited into individual Committee Hub threads as needed
Why committees often keep Committee Hub private
Committee Hub is generally the one area committees keep to themselves even when a manager has broad access elsewhere, since it's where candid internal discussion happens before a position is settled — the manager can still be invited into a specific thread where their input is useful.
Changing access over time
Manager access isn't locked in at setup. It can be widened if the relationship develops, or narrowed if the committee wants to bring more of the work in-house, without disrupting the manager's or committee's existing records.
What happens if you change managers
Because access is a permissions setting rather than a copy of your data handed to the manager, replacing a manager is a matter of removing the outgoing firm's access and granting it to the new one — your committee's records stay put throughout.
No fixed manager package
There's no default manager access level — the committee sets it page by page and can adjust it at any time.
