Organisational relationships
Definitions
-
Stock owning organisation: An organisation that owns housing stock. It may manage the allocation of people in and out of their accommodation, or it may contract this out to managing agents.
-
Managing agent: In scenarios where one organisation owns stock and another organisation is contracted to manage the stock and tenants, the latter organisation is often called a ‘managing agent’. Managing agents are responsible for the allocation of people in and out of the accommodation, and/or responsible for the services provided to support those people in the accommodation (in the case of supported housing).

Customer support users can access any case log
-
Data coordinators can access any case log for which the organisation they work for is ultimately responsible for, meaning they can see logs managed by a child organisation
-
Data providers can only access case logs for which their organisation manages (or directly owns)
Taking the relationships from the above diagram, and looking at which logs each user can access:
