Staff & roles
Who works in a supplier's Clipp account and what each person may do. A supplier adds team members on the Team page, gives each one a role, and the role decides which parts of the app that person can see or change. One person, the owner, always has full control.
Who uses it
- Admins invite people, assign roles, and build the roles themselves.
- Team members sign in with the access their role gives them. Anything their role doesn't allow is hidden or read-only.
At a glance
| Concept | What it means |
|---|---|
| Admin | Full access to everything. Not a role: it is a switch on the person, shown as Admin |
| Owner | The one admin who created or first claimed the business. Cannot be removed or demoted |
| Role | A named set of access levels, one per area of the app. A non-admin has at most one role |
| Access | For each area: Full Access, Read Only or No Access |
| Invitation | A pending offer to join the team as an admin or with a role, accepted by the invited person |

FAQ
Why can't I find an "Admin" role in the list? Admin isn't a role. It is a privilege on the person. See Admins & the owner.
I changed a role. Do people need to sign in again? No. The change applies to everyone with that role straight away. See Roles & permissions.
