Team Management and Permissions
Team Management and Permissions
Giving your warehouse staff full admin access is a recipe for disaster — one wrong click deletes your carrier settings or changes your billing info. But locking everyone out means you're the bottleneck for every label reprint and address correction.
The right setup: role-based permissions where each team member sees exactly what they need. Here's how to configure team access without creating security gaps or workflow bottlenecks.
Adding Team Members
- Go to Settings → Team
- Click Invite Team Member
- Enter their email address
- Select a role
- Send invitation
The invited member receives an email to join your organization.
