Team roles

What each team role can see and change in a company — owner, admin, accountant, manager, developer, viewer.

Every member of a company has one role. The role decides which modules the member can read, which they can change, and which parts of Settings they can open. Roles are set under Settings → Team by an owner or an admin.

What each role allows

Owner

  • Full access to every module: sales, purchases, partners, catalog, inventory, ledger, bank, cash, payroll, HR, assets, declarations, reports and the rest.
  • Opens every Settings tab: API keys, Webhooks, Billing, Compliance, Team, Companies, Migration, Audit log.
  • Manages the team: invites members, changes their roles, removes them.
  • Edits the company profile and is the only role that can archive or delete the company.
  • The owner role cannot be changed or removed from the Team page.

Admin

  • The same access to modules and Settings as the owner.
  • Manages the team and edits the company profile.
  • Cannot archive or delete the company.

Accountant

  • Full read and write access to every accounting module — the same data access as an owner or admin.
  • No access to Settings: cannot manage the team, API keys, webhooks, billing, compliance credentials or companies.

Manager

  • Reads everything.
  • Creates and edits documents in the day-to-day modules: sales, purchases, partners, catalog, inventory, e-commerce, POS, cash, files and projects.
  • Everything else is read-only: ledger postings, bank, payroll, HR, assets, declarations, agreements, production, transport, fleet, consolidation and reference data.
  • No access to Settings.

Developer

  • Reads everything.
  • Opens Settings → API keys and Settings → Webhooks and manages both.
  • Cannot change any accounting data.

Viewer

  • Reads everything; cannot change anything.
  • No access to Settings.

Rules that apply to all roles

  • A member cannot change their own role.
  • Only owners and admins can invite members, change roles or remove members.
  • New members join with the role chosen in the invitation; it can be changed later on the Team page.
  • API keys have their own permission scopes, independent of team roles — see the API conventions guide.
