Overview
You can now restrict Business Users from adding new Point of Sale (POS) items, while still allowing them to edit existing ones. This feature gives you more control over user permissions, ensuring that only authorized personnel can introduce new inventory items.
You can now set these permissions through a secondary toggle in Team Access Settings > Administrator Type > Access Tab > POS Inventory. This helps safeguard your POS inventory from unauthorized changes, while maintaining the flexibility to update existing items.
Use Cases
-
Granular control over team permissions: Limit certain users to editing existing POS items without granting them the ability to add new ones.
-
Prevent unauthorized additions: Ensure that only trusted staff can introduce new inventory items while others can maintain or update existing ones.
-
Streamline inventory management: Enable your team to make necessary edits to current items without risking the integrity of your inventory by adding new products.
-
Customized user roles: Set up role-specific permissions during onboarding or as needed for better inventory oversight.
Key Notes
-
Upon release, the new toggle will default to ON as to not disrupt any current user functions
-
The new toggle, when turned OFF, hides the "Create New" button and prevents Business Users from adding new POS items but still allows them to modify existing items, including adding new variables.
-
If users are accustomed to adding new items, you may need to provide additional training to ensure they understand how to use this new permission feature effectively.
