When you create users, client users, and employees in the Back Office application, you must assign them to a particular role or multiple roles. This article will help you decide which role suits best for each of your users, client users, and employees.
User Roles
User roles define users’ access to the Back Office application data.
Administrators have access to all settings (clients, employees, teams, areas, services, devices, types, etc.), all operational (service requests, inspections, work orders, and invoices), and reporting data (reports and timesheets).
Accountants have access to all operational and reporting data, but only to some settings.
Technicians have access to repair orders and reporting data of the team they are assigned to (the Technician role is available if your Back Office application is subscribed to the TechnicianUsers feature).
Work Managers have access to some operational and reporting data.
Work Managers (Read-Only) have only “view” access to some operational and reporting data.
Team Work Managers have access to operational and reporting data of their teams only.
Area Work Managers have access to operational and reporting data of their areas only.
