When adding a new role or editing an existing one (for more information see our helpsheet on creating custom staff access), you have the option to grant or not certain permissions to staff accesses using this role. You will find below the meaning of each permission to help you create the role that matches your exact need.

Note that some permissions will be visible and editable on the Staff page only if the studio has the corresponding upsell

Navigation menu permissions

When one of the permissions in the navigation menu is not given, the related entry in the back-office menu will be hidden from the staff access

For collapsable sections, you can either choose to hide access to the entire entry in the navigation menu or only to one or several pages included in the section.

For example for the permission My Studio, you can remove permission to access all pages included in My Studio, or some specific ones.

AppBar actions

When one of the permissions of the AppBar actions is not given, the related icon will be hidden and not accessible in the navigation bar

You can either grant access or not to the Ledger, Notifications and alerts, and the message notification (that last one requires the Inbox upsell)

Session management

For each type of session (group activities, Workshops, and Appointments), you can choose whether the role is allowed to create, edit, or delete sessions, as well as view or edit sessions' notes.

  1. Create: when disabled, the staff will not be allowed to create a new session of activity, a workshop or a new appointment

  2. Edit: when disabled, the staff will be allowed to see the existing sessions but not to edit their details

  3. Delete: when disabled, the staff will be allowed to see the existing sessions but not to delete them

  4. View notes: when managing bookings of an existing session, the staff will not be able to see the notes related to a session

  5. Edit notes: when managing bookings of an existing session, the staff will be able to see the notes related to a session but will not be allowed to edit them

Actions on members

Each permission in Actions on members allows you to restrict or grant permissions on interactions that the role can have with the members.

You can choose to remove permissions to all actions on members or only some of them.

  6. Access to member profiles: if disabled, all clicks previously allowing to open a member profile will be disabled to prevent the staff from accessing it. For example, it will not be possible to click on a member's name on the list of booked members on a session's detail or on a report.
