Essentials
Invite Users & Roles & Permissions
Why It Matters
Giving the right level of access to your team members ensures:
- Sensitive actions (like sending payments or editing financial data) are limited to authorized users
- Team members only see the tools and information they need
- Your workflows stay secure, efficient, and error-free
Example:
Your accountant needs access to reports and transactions, but not the ability to invite new users or edit settings. Assigning the “Accountant” role keeps access focused and secure.
Available Roles
Each user is assigned one role, which comes with a pre-set group of permissions. Here are the most common roles:
| Role | What they can do |
|---|---|
| Admin | Full access |
| Bookkeeper | View and manage financial and accounting data |
| Employee | View and categorize their own transactions |
| Manager | Review their employees' transactions |
| Vendor | Vendor specific login access to upload invoices and monitor payment status |
| Custom | Tailored permissions of functionality |
Note: each role is further customizable to suit that user's persona within your organization.
