# Users & roles

> Add administrators and control their access to the admin panel.

**Setup → User** and **Setup → Role** allow you to manage your staff and their access to the admin panel.

<Note>
  These users are your **staff members**, not tenants or tenant staff.
</Note>

## Access types

Administrators can access the panel in two ways.

| Access type              | Description                                                     |
| ------------------------ | --------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Role**                 | A set of specific permissions, limited to the areas you choose. |
| **Administrator Access** | Full, unrestricted access to all areas of the platform.         |

<Warning>
  Give **Administrator Access** only to trusted users. It provides unrestricted access and cannot be limited by a role.
</Warning>

## Roles

**Setup → Role** shows all available roles and the number of users assigned to each role.

### Create a role

Click **Add Role** and enter a **Role Name**, then select the required permissions.

</Frame>

Permissions are available for areas such as **Plans, Coupons, Taxes, Transactions, Activity Log, Notifications, Tenants, Tenant Billing, Currency, My Billing, Email Templates, Seeder Library, Settings, Users, and Roles**.

Most areas include permissions such as **View, Create, Edit, and Delete**.

<Note>
  Selecting **Create, Edit, or Delete** automatically gives the user **View** access to that area.
</Note>

### Delete a role

A role assigned to a user cannot be deleted. Move the users to another role first, then delete the unused role.

## Users

**Setup → User** shows all administrators with their name, phone, email, status, and added date.

### Add a user

### Edit a user

You can edit a user's profile and access settings based on your permissions. The following rules apply:

* You cannot change your own access settings.
* The **account owner** cannot be edited from this page. Update the owner's details from **Profile**.
* Only a full-access administrator can manage users with **Administrator Access**.

<Info>
  You need full access to give someone full access. A staff member with a role cannot give it to anyone, including their own account.
</Info>

### Remove a user

You can remove staff users from the platform. These users cannot be removed:

* **Account owner**
* **Your own account**

<Tip>
  You can also disable a user without removing them by turning off their **Active** status.
