By default, every staff member you add to your account has no administrative functionality and can only login to the mobile app to view their schedule and complete appointments.
If you have a business partner, manager or someone else that needs to perform administrative functions, you can grant them different levels of access based on their needs.
Access Levels
Scout has four different access levels for staff members:
No admin access - this is the default for all new staff accounts and has no administrative functionality and can only login to the mobile app to view their schedule and complete appointments.
βAdministrator - access to all administrative functions without limitation except for accessing information related to your Scout subscription. This is a great option if you have a business partner or a trusted staff member that you'd like to control every option in Scout without limitation.
βManager - managers have access to all administrative functions with the exception of settings and financial reports. If you've already setup your business to your liking and need someone to run the day-to-day, this one's for you.
βScheduler - schedulers have full access to the schedule and limited access to staff, customers, and leads.
