There are four different roles in Giving, each with different permissions. When a person is added to the Admin side of Giving, they will be assigned one of these roles: Giving Administrator, Bookkeeper, Counter, or Reviewer.

Check out this clip from Planning Center University.

Add a User

To add a person, go to the Users tab on the People page, and click Add User.

You can also change their role from the person's profile. In the User Profile tab Permissions section, click Edit.

When someone's access is removed, their activity in the logs will remain intact, along with any other information on their Donor Profile. An Administrator will receive an email and notification of the change.

Notice

Giving access is also removed when the person is set to inactive in Planning Center People, which happens when a person leaves the church, passes away, or any other reason determined by the organization.
