# How to Add Team Members and Assign User Roles

# **Add Team Members and Assign User Roles on myRestro**

## **Overview**

Managing your restaurant team on myRestro is simple and fully customizable. Before adding a new employee, you must first create their **Employee Role**, define what they can access, and assign permissions within your Admin Dashboard. Once the role is ready, you can add employees and assign them to the correct role from the dropdown list.

This guide walks you through the complete process step by step.

## **Step 1: Access Employee Role Settings**

1. Log in to your myRestro Admin Dashboard.

2. From the left-hand sidebar, go to **Employee Management → Employee Role**.

## **Step 2: Create a New Employee Role**

Inside the **Employee Role** section, you will see:

- A field to enter **Role Name**

- A **Module Permission** section with multiple checkboxes

- A **Submit** button on the right

### **Role Name**

Enter the name of the role you want to create, such as:

- Operations Manager

- Cashier

- Kitchen Staff

- Delivery Coordinator

- Admin Assistant

### **Module Permission**

Choose what this role can access on the dashboard. You can:

- **Select All** for roles that require full backend access
Example: *Operations Manager, Branch Manager, Admin Staff*

- **Select specific permissions** only
Example:

- For a *Cashier*: allow only Orders, POS, Cash Management

- For *Kitchen Staff*: allow Orders, Food Management

- For *Marketing Staff*: allow Promotions, Coupons, SEO

Once you finalize the permissions:

### **Click ‘Submit’ on the right side.**

Your new Employee Role is now created and will appear in the Role dropdown list when adding employees.

## **Step 3: Add New Employees**

1. From the left navigation bar, go to **Employee Management → Employees**.

2. Click **Add New** on the top right.

You will now see the employee creation form.

## **Step 4: Fill Employee Details**

Complete the required information:

### **Basic Details**

- **First Name**

- **Last Name**

- **Phone Number**

- **Upload Employee Picture** (optional but recommended for easier identification)

### **Assign Role**

Under the **Role** dropdown, choose the role you created earlier in Step 2.

### **Account Info**

- Enter the employee’s **professional or work email**

- Set a **strong password** for the account

- Once all details are filled in:

### **Click ‘Submit’ (right side).**

Your new employee account is successfully created and now activated under the assigned role.

## **Step 5: Completion**

You have now:

✔️ Created a custom role
✔️ Assigned permissions for that role
✔️ Added an employee and linked them to that role

The employee can now log in and access only the modules permitted for their role.

## **Pro Tip**

Create role groups for each department to speed up onboarding. For example:

- “Cashier Level 1”
- “Kitchen Prep Staff”
- “Operations Supervisor”
- “Admin Full Access”

This ensures faster employee setup and consistent permission control.
