Managing collaboration around to do list and tasks from procedures doesn't have to be a headache. That's where Checklist As A Service steps in, especially designed for Microsoft Teams. It's all about making your life easier with a set of roles tailored to fit different needs within your team.


Let's break down these roles and see how they can help you and your team stay on track.




Checklist Owner: The Administrative Anchor

At the helm of the Checklist instance is the Checklist Owner – akin to an admin in traditional applications. This role is granted the broadest spectrum of capabilities, from viewing all instance information to configuring settings. Owners exclusively manage templates and access a comprehensive dashboard that provides a snapshot of all tasks across all checklists.


Checklist Member: The Task Masters

Checklist Members don't have privileged access like a Checklist Owner, but they can contribute to checklists in various roles (see below).
