Roles

Roles determine what each person can do within your organization. A role is a set of permissions; you assign one or more roles to each user. They are in the Roles menu.

Ready-made roles

Inspow comes with a catalog of roles shared by all organizations. The most used ones:

Role	For whom
owner	The owner of the organization: full access.
admin	Administrators: access to the whole permissions catalog.
teacher	Staff who view and update information.
user, student, guest	Read-only access.
suscriptor	Paying clients (guardians or account holders): they see their own account, beneficiaries, subscriptions and invoices.
wa-admin, wa-supervisor	The WhatsApp agent team.

These roles are read-only for your organization: you can’t edit or delete them, or create a new one with the same name.

Create a role

Click Create Role and fill in:

• Name and Description.
• Permissions: search for and check the ones it needs (for example read:meal-menus to view the menus).
• Inherited roles: if you choose another role, the new one inherits all of its permissions in addition to its own.

Best practices

• Assign the role with the minimum permissions needed.
• Use inheritance to avoid repeating permissions: for example, a “Coordination” role that inherits from an “Operations” role and adds billing.
• Periodically review who has administrative access.
