The easiest way to think about different roles for people in an organisation is to use a few examples of different types of organisations.
Organisation 1 - Office Based Business
Owner - The person who manages the business’ Setyl account, is responsible for paying for the subscription and managing access for others. This could be someone in IT, an Office Manager, an Operations person, etc.
Manager - Managers within the business, who may be granted additional permissions on Setyl
Supervisor - Not used in this example
Employee - All other employees
No access - Not used in this example
Organisation 2 - International Courier Business with Regional Teams
Owner - The person who manages the business’ Setyl account, is responsible for paying for the subscription and managing access for others. This could be someone in IT, an Office Manager, an Operations person, etc.
Manager - National IT Manager
Supervisor - Regional Managers
Employee - All other employees
No Access - Freelancers
Organisation 3 - School
Owner - The person who manages the business’ Setyl account, is responsible for paying for the subscription and managing access for others. This could be someone in IT, an Office Manager, an Operations person, etc.
Manager - Support staff within the school and external contractors (e.g. for inspections)
Supervisor - Teachers
Employee - Not used in this case
No access - Each student (optional)
Although these examples are helpful to understand the different roles for people in your organisation, it depends on how you want to set up your organisation. We have built Setyl so that it enables clients to customise their “User Permissions” to their preference.
