Decide which business capabilities managers and staff members hold
The permissions section holds a matrix of 20 capabilities. Each capability has one checkbox for the Manager role and one for the Staff role.
Requirements: The owner and managers may open Permissions. Only the owner may change a checkbox or reset a section. Other roles are returned to the dashboard. Managers read the matrix and see the note that only the owner can change it.
| Role | Default |
|---|---|
| Owner | Holds every permission. The owner is not listed in the matrix and cannot be restricted. |
| Manager | Holds every capability of the matrix. Can invite members and change roles. Cannot remove members. |
| Staff | Holds no capability of the matrix. Can always work on a task that is assigned to the member. |
The message Permissions updated appears. The change applies to every member with that role.
The message Permissions reset to defaults appears.
A small dot on a checkbox marks a permission that differs from the default. The line Differs from the default. appears below the sections when any permission is changed.
