Team roles and permissions

Updated

Every person in your BCL account has a role. The role decides which menus they see, and for the Team role you also choose permissions one by one. You set both when you add a team member.

Choose the role that matches the person’s job:

  • Admin has full access to the account, including Team Profile, Team Members and payment settings. Give this role only to people you trust with your whole business.
  • Team is for staff. They see only the areas you turn on for them.
  • Crew Event is for event helpers who only check in attendees. In Allowed Events for Check-In you can limit them to certain events, and you can send them a sign-in link. See Give your event crew check-in access.

Your own role shows on your account card at the bottom of the sidebar.

When you choose Team, you turn on each permission separately. Most areas have four switches, for example Can View Payment Forms, Can Create Payment Forms, Can Update Payment Forms and Can Delete Payment Forms. The areas are:

  • Transactions (view only)
  • Payment forms, coupons and certificate templates
  • Event forms and event check-ins
  • Protected content
  • Lead forms and their submissions
  • Booking forms, booking services and employees
  • Bookings: view the list and calendar, and change a booking’s status

A member cannot create, update or delete in an area unless they can also view it.

By default, a Team member sees only their own data, such as the forms and transactions they created. To let every member see all of your account’s data:

  1. Click your company name at the bottom of the sidebar and choose Team Profile.

  2. On the General Settings tab, under Data Access, turn on Show data for all team members.

    The Data Access section of Merchant Settings with the Show data for all team members switch highlighted

  3. Click Save Settings.

Admins can sign in as another member to check their access:

  1. Open Team Member from the Account Menu.

  2. Click Impersonate on the member’s row. It only shows on other members’ rows.

  3. When you are done, click Leave on the Impersonating bar above your name.

Common issues

My staff cannot see transactions made by other staff. Why?

Members with the Team role see only their own data by default. To let them see everyone's, turn on Show data for all team members in Team Profile and click Save Settings.

How do I check what a staff member can see?

On Team Members, click Impersonate on their row. You browse BCL as them. Click Leave on the Impersonating bar above your name to come back.

Can a Team member change payment settings?

No. Team settings, team members and payment settings are for admins only.
