Roles and permissions

CutBench controls access by organisation role, worker kind, employment type (staff or freelance), and permission areas.

Permission areas

Admins can enable or disable these areas per office member: Dashboard, Calendar, Customers, Jobs, Invoices, Quotes, Files, Inbox, Reporting.

Worker kinds and employment

Worker kind (Office, Templater, or Fitter) is separate from whether someone is staff or freelance. You can mix staff and freelance templaters — and staff and freelance fitters — in the same organisation.
