The Elevated Permissions feature is a great way to quickly grant a user access to an order action that would otherwise not be able to do it.
Before using elevated permissions, establish:
- A user who has Allow elevated permissions enabled in the additional user roles. For example, a restaurant manager. See Assigning user roles.
- A user who doesn't have Allow elevated permissions as well as certain order option permissions enabled in the additional user roles. For example, a waiter who can't apply discounts.
To use elevated permissions
- Log in to Restaurant POS as a user without Allow elevated permissions enabled.
- On the Order screen, open the Item Options menu for an order item. See Editing order items for more information.
-
Select an action that you don't have permission to perform, indicated by a lock icon.
-
An Authorization Needed popup appears. A user with Allow elevated permissions user role enabled must enter their PIN code.
- Continue performing the action as usual.
