Maxanet lets you add additional administrators with full access to your account, or create custom roles with limited permissions for specific responsibilities (Clerk, Inventory Manager, Employee) and assign those roles to company users. Each administrator or company user logs in with their own unique username and password, and their access is controlled by the role they're assigned.

All Maxanet users — admins and custom-role users alike — must have a unique email address. You cannot use the same email for two different accounts, so if a new employee is replacing someone, either create a new account with a different email or delete the old account first.

Full-access admins should be trusted partners in your business. To create one, log in as the top-level administrator, click the green Go to Admin button in the upper-right corner, then click Company Users → Add. Fill in the new user's information, select the Admin role, and click Add to save. The new admin receives an email with their login credentials.

For staff who should not have full access — clerks, inventory managers, customer service — create a custom role first, then assign users to it. Go to Admin → Roles & Permissions, click the green Add button, enter a role name (for example, Clerk, Inventory Manager, Employee), and save. Click the wrench icon on the new role to edit its permissions — the left column lists main feature areas and the right column lets you turn specific capabilities on or off. Save when done.

Go back to Go to Admin → Company Users → Add, fill in the new user's information, and select your custom role (instead of Admin) from the role dropdown. Click Add to save. The new user receives their login credentials and can only access the features you enabled for their role.

Go to Go to Admin → Company Users, find the user, and edit their role via the Actions menu. Permission changes apply immediately the next time the user logs in.

No. Every Maxanet user must have a unique email address. Use a different email or delete the old account first.

Start with a role name that describes the job (Clerk, Inventory Manager). Turn on only the permissions needed for that job — you can always add more later. Common setups: inventory managers need item and photo permissions, clerks need bid/invoice permissions, etc.

Yes. Edits to a role apply to everyone assigned to that role automatically on their next login.

Use Go to Admin → Company Users → Add and select the Admin role. Admins have full access to all data and features.

No. Each Maxanet user has one role at a time. To combine permissions, create a custom role that has all the permissions you need and assign that.
