Creating User Roles

When you create a new Pickup Hub User, you'll also need to assign them to a role. This help page will outline the default roles, the permissions available, and how to edit those permissions.

Default Roles

To access roles, under the Users menu, click the Roles link.

On the Roles page, you will see five default roles.

  1. Consultant -- This role is reserved for third-party, outside businesses and partners such as developers, web agencies, or marketing departments. Consultants only have access to the Support menu in the Pickup Hub
  2. In-Store Pickup - All Locations -- This role provides access to all in-store pickup locations for this dealer. This role has access to the Support and In-Store Pickup menus in the Pickup Hub
  3. Manager - All Locations -- This role provides manager-level access to the Pickup Hub. This role has access to all Pickup Hub menus
  4. Root -- This is an Owner-only permission level. This role has blanket permissions for the Pickup Hub and all users
  5. Supervisor - All Locations -- This role provides supervisor-level access to the Pickup Hub. This role has access to all Pickup Hub menus except for Settings

By default, the following user types are assigned to these roles:

  1. Owners -- Root role
  2. Administrators -- Manager - All Locations
  3. Users (with an email matching the Dealer's domain) -- In-Store Pickup - All Locations
  4. Users (with an outside email address) -- Consultant

Creating a New Role

You have the ability to create a custom role for your pickup hub users.

To start, click on the NEW + button on the Roles page.

  • Products
  • In-Store Pickup
  • Customers
  • Orders

Editing a Role's Permissions

Whether it's a default role or one you've created, you can edit the permissions of any role.

On the Roles menu, click on the Permissions link for the role you wish to edit. For our example, we'll use the Consultant role.

This will automatically pull up a modal window and the Permissions tab for that role.

By default the Consultant role only has access to the Support menu.

For Frank's Fishing, we've edited the Consultant role to also include access to the Products menu, as well as the In-Store Pickup Orders menu.

Once you've made your changes, click Save and the role's permissions will be updated for this dealer.

Changing a User's Role

Owners and Administrators also have the ability to change an assigned role.

Start with the Users menu, and click on the Name of the user you wish to edit. For our example, we will edit Ryder Flynn's role.

Deleting a Role

In some instances, you may want to delete a role entirely.

To do so, start with the Users menu, and click on the Roles link. Then, click on the name of the role you wish to delete. For our example, we'll use the Summer Intern role.

On the role modal window, click the red Delete button in the upper right-hand corner.
