Setting up the employee permissions correctly will make sure your business
is run as smoothly as possible.
Every new employee you add will have an assigned role. The employees can be entered as 'Admin', 'Office staff', or 'Worker'. A list of permissions for each role is set by default. However, you may customize the list or create a new role with a different set of permissions.
To add a new role go to 'Settings' on the left-side menu, click on the 'Accounts & Billing' drop-down menu and select 'Team'. Go to the 'Roles' tab and click 'Add'.
Enter a name for a new role and select the permissions you would like to enable.
Lists of permissions for new roles are based on the templates for 'Admin', 'Office staff', or 'Worker' types of employees in a drop-down menu.
By default 'Admin' has nearly the same permissions as the owner, 'Office staff' can schedule workers and interact with customers, and 'Worker' can only interact with customers, jobs, estimates, and tasks they are assigned to.
You can customize the list by selecting or deselecting the options below:
