Roles and Permissions

A short explanation of how roles and permission are used within eReception Book

Updated over a week ago

Roles

Each Employee can be allocated a specific role; you can create multiple roles to suit your site setup. A role dictates which permissions/notifications an employee group has access to.

For example, you could create a ‘Receptionist’ role that allows employees to see the dashboard but limits access to other parts of the system.
