How to create new system user

You can create a separate user for the person who needs to access your admin page in Manage -> Users page and assign the corresponding rights to that user.

After this, just enable the switch Send login information to user and save the user record.
The system will automatically send the email with the login credentials according to the template you have set in Settings -> Email and SMS Settings -> New user login notification.

Or you can manually send login and password to your users along with the link to your admin page after saving the user.

User Roles



Admin

If you created the system for your company at SimplyBook.me then you have admin rights by default. This means the highest access level among all users and you can create other administrators with the same access level.

Please note! To protect your system from mistakes, we do not allow to delete the default administrator so if he/she should no longer have admin rights, you need to change his/her email and password to limit the access. The second and further admins can be removed.

You can relate each user to one or several providers(employees) to allow them to view and/or manage bookings, schedules, etc. depending on their level of access.

Senior Employee

The Senior employee level allows the users to see the workload of others but they can only make changes to settings that relate to providers. These users do not have access to company configuration settings. Senior employee users are not tied to specific service provider/s. They have full access to all service providers added to the system, allowing them to view, add, edit, change schedules, and delete providers.

This is a list of functions they cannot access:

  • Dashboard
  • User managing
  • Tariffs and payments
  • Insights
  • Settings
  • Company worktime management
  • Company basic information and address
  • Homepage content management
  • Design settings
  • Custom CSS
  • Marketplace settings
  • Widgets generation

(for more details see table below)

Junior Employee

In cases, company has many employees with roles primarily focused on their own tasks, the Junior employee user can be created. This user level grants employees the ability to view their own workload and make modifications to their own schedule and bookings. When creating a Junior employee, the option to select the associated service provider/s is available. Notably, it is possible to connect more than 1 service provider to a Junior employee user, enhancing flexibility and control across various setup scenarios. The functionality of selecting multiple service providers for Junior employee is particularly advantageous in situations where a team member requires access to specific providers' schedules or several providers connected to multiple locations.

Junior employee has access to the following functions:

  • Calendar (can manage only own bookings and notes)
  • Worktime (can change only own schedules)
  • Service providers (can see only associated service provider/s)

(for more details see table below)

Please note! If a Junior employee user is not assigned to any service provider then his level of access will be automatically downgraded to Viewer level.

Viewer

In some cases you may want to allow someone to see what is going on with company bookings but not be able to make any changes. This user should be set as Viewer. Viewers can not change anything, and they can not add any bookings.
The following functions are available for this access group:

  • Calendar (view only)
  • Services (view only)

(for more details see table below)

Operator POS

This level was created mainly for managing POS interface and sell services, classes, packages, memberships, products and add-ons,
but also has access to Calendar, Clients, some reports and view only access to Memberships, Coupons&Gift Cards, Services/Classes and Providers.

Doorman

Only has the ability to validate Tickets.

Lab tester

This access level was created mainly for work with Medical Test custom feature and validate tickets, print test tube labels, update test result statuses and print results.
