How do I create additional Employee Categories?
Employee categories exist in order to assign levels of access to an employee depending on their category. Aura has 4 employee categories by default:
Manager
Cashier
Franchisee
Driver
If you wish to add more or edit these categories, open Backoffice and go to Lists,> Employee> Employee Categories:
You will then be presented with the following window. On this window, you need to click on the “+” button at the top:
Once you have done so you will be presented with the following window:
You need to enter a category code as well as a category description associated with category you are wanting to add. Once you have done so, you will need to click on “OK” to save the newly created category and it will appear on the Employee Category list.
You may delete Employee Categories as well, however, if an employee is already linked to a category you wish to delete, the system will prevent you from doing so.
Note that any new categories created will have zero permissions assigned to them by default. You will need to set up access levels for the category.
