This article walks you through the process of setting permissions for existing users in the web app.

Please note that the ability to adjust user permissions by feature is available only on the Essential or Professional plans. If you’re on the Basic plan, you can assign different user roles, but granular permission management—such as adjusting access to specific inventory, ordering, reporting or management features—requires one of the higher-tier plans. For more information on roles (admin, manager, user), refer to user role definitions.

1. Click the user icon in the top-right corner of Backbar.

2. Then select Manage users from the drop-down menu.

3. Click the pencil icon of the user you want to edit.

4. Use the toggles to set the actions the user can or cannot perform on Backbar. If the toggle is blue, the user is allowed to perform that action; if it is grey, they cannot. You can also set permissions when inviting a new user by following the same steps.
