Roles and Permissions

Flincs has three roles. Each one controls what a user can see and do.

Owner

Full access to everything. The owner is typically the restaurant or business owner.

Owners can:

• View and edit all employees, schedules, time records, and leave requests
• Access salary details and bonus configuration
• Manage users (invite, edit roles, remove)
• Change shift rules, appearance, and system settings
• Reset overtime (Month Close)
• See employee notes and financial data

There is always at least one owner per organization.

Admin

Same access as the owner, with three exceptions:

• No billing access
• No user management -- cannot invite or remove users
• No salary visibility -- cannot see salary details or the Salaries page

Admins are typically trusted managers or shift leads who need to build schedules and track hours but don't handle payroll.

Admins can:

• View and edit employees (except salary fields)
• Build and edit schedules
• Record and edit time tracking entries
• Approve or reject leave requests
• Change shift rules and appearance settings
• Reset overtime (Month Close)

Manager

The most restricted role. Managers can see day-to-day operations but cannot access sensitive data.

Managers can:

• View the Dashboard
• View and edit the Schedule
• View and edit Time Tracking records

Managers cannot:

• See or edit employee details
• Access leave management
• View salaries or bonuses
• Change any settings
• Manage users

Assigning roles

Only owners can assign or change roles. See Users for details on inviting users and setting their role.

Tip: Give the Manager role to shift leads who need to check schedules and enter hours but shouldn't see financial data.
