Creating a user and assigning a role
What is it for?
Everyone who uses Nadigit IMS has their own account. Their role decides which menus they see; their assigned shop and assigned warehouse place their work.
Before you start
- You are an Administrator.
- The number of users depends on your plan: 1 on Starter, 5 on Pro, unlimited on Business and Enterprise.
- Choose the role using the table in Navigation and roles.
Steps
- Open System Settings → Users and permissions, then New.
- Fill in First Name, Last Name, Username (the login), Email and Password.
- Choose the Assigned Shop and the Assigned Warehouse.
- For a cashier, set the POS PIN: it unlocks the point of sale lock screen and is used for manager approval.
- In Role assignment, tick one or more roles: Accountant, Auditor, Vendor, Administrator, Cashier, Warehouseman.
- Click Save.
Give the person their username and password through a secure channel. Identities are kept by the authentication service (Keycloak).
Good to know
- Give everyone the minimum rights they need, and keep the Administrator role for very few people.
- Deactivate the account of anyone who leaves the company without delay.
- A Cashier only sees the point of sale: at login, they land straight on the till.
