Getting Started

Access levels and permissions in Traffio determine what users can see and do within the system, ensuring that sensitive information and critical functions are only accessible to those with the appropriate authority.


List of Roles Explained

What is a role?

Roles define the level of access within Traffio, determining which areas of the software a user can access and limiting their ability to make changes.

There are four types of roles in Traffio.

By default, all newly created users are assigned the "Traffic Controller" role.

Administrator

Administrators have access to the web browser, the ability to modify access levels and permissions, and the authority to grant employees access to the Estimated Revenue report.

Manager

Managers have access to the web browser and are also able to modify access levels and permissions within the system.

Office Staff

Office staff have access to the web browser and can manage billing functions, depending on their permissions. However, they do not have the ability to modify access levels or permissions.

Their responsibilities include:

  • Creating bookings

  • Creating people

  • Creating clients

Traffic Controller

The "Traffic Controller" is the default role assigned to new users. This role only provides access to the Traffio App and is intended for employees who are receiving and managing shifts.
