How to create a user account with restricted access

A restricted user account is an account with limited access to the software. This allows restricted account users to perform their tasks by having access to minimum necessary information. 

To create a Restricted Staff account, go to the menu at the upper-right corner of the page to find Settings and click on User Accounts. In User Accounts, assign the 'Restricted Staff' role to create a restricted user account. 

 

The owner or office administrator can customize the privileges of their restricted staff users by clicking on Role Definitions, located at the bottom of the User Accounts page in settings. Restricted staff will have access to what you define they can have access to. In the Role Definitions - only select the check boxes you want the restricted staff to have access to.
