Managing Team Members

Inviting a staff member

1. Go to Settings → Staff
2. Click Invite staff member
3. Enter their email address and select a role (manager or staff)
4. Click Send invitation

The staff member receives an email with a link to set their password and access the app. The invitation expires after 72 hours — you can resend it from the same screen.

Changing a role

1. Go to Settings → Staff
2. Find the staff member and click Edit
3. Select the new role and save

Role changes take effect immediately on their next page load.

Removing a staff member

1. Go to Settings → Staff
2. Click Remove next to the staff member's name
3. Confirm removal

Access is revoked immediately. Their historical actions (order updates, menu changes) remain in the audit log.

Switching Between Branches

If your restaurant has multiple branches, the branch selector appears at the top of the app after login.

• Each branch is an independent view: orders, menu, hours, and finance are branch-specific
• Select the correct branch before taking any action to avoid operating on the wrong location
• Only staff with restaurant.branch.manage can add or edit branch details (owner and manager roles)
