The Security roles section enables the school to configure different levels of user login. This means that the school can limit certain functions of the system only to users who are authorised. For example, the school may wish that members of the ‘Operator’ role do not have permission to perform refunds at the Point of Sale whereas the ‘Supervisor’ and ‘Manager’ roles can.
By default, there are six roles created. These roles can be edited or added to as required by the school. The below table provides a brief description of the default security roles:
| Role name | Description |
|---|---|
| Administrators | This role is intended for users who will have unlimited access to the system. |
| Manager | The manager role is intended for kitchen managers that can access the majority of system features but are restricted from system configuration screens such as ‘Configure internet payments’. |
| Supervisor | Half-way between the manager role and the operator role. This would be a more senior/trusted member of staff who could perform refunds and allow overspends at the Point of Sale. |
| Operator | A typical Point of Sale user with limited access to the system. |
| Read Only | This user cannot make any changes to the system or it’s data but can still view it and run reports. |
| Reval Manager | Required by the internal Reval Manager login. This login runs the Revaluation (Top up) machines if the school have them. |
