Admin Guide

Admin pages at /admin are for system-level tasks that most staff don't need access to—things like role management, audit logs, promotional offers, and background job monitoring.

Role Management

Admins control who has access to what in Metrognome. This includes assigning roles and granting specific permissions.

Assigning Roles

To change someone's role:

  1. Go to Staff → Users
  2. Find and open the user
  3. Go to the Permissions tab
  4. Select the role from the dropdown
  5. Save changes

Available roles: Admin, Staff, User, Partner.

Location-Scoped Roles

Staff roles can be scoped to specific locations:

  1. On the Permissions tab, after selecting Staff
  2. Choose Scoped instead of Global
  3. Select the locations they should have access to

Use location scoping for:

  • Facility managers responsible for specific locations
  • Staff who only work at certain locations
  • Regional managers overseeing a subset of locations

User Permissions

Beyond roles, you can grant explicit permissions to individual users:

  1. Open the user's detail page
  2. Go to the Permissions tab
  3. Click Grant Permission
  4. Select the permission and optionally set an expiration date
  5. Save

Explicit permissions are useful for:

  • Temporary access during training or coverage
  • Specific capabilities not included in a role
  • Time-limited elevated access

Viewing permission history: The Permissions tab shows all current and past permissions, including when they were granted, by whom, and when they expired.

Revoking permissions: Click the revoke icon next to any active permission to remove it immediately.

Offers
