User roles help you determine who can access which features in bilabl and which data they can access.
For example:
- Only admin and manager roles can access payment-relevant information
- Admin and manager roles can view and access all matters while a team leader can only access their assigned matters and matters assigned to their members.
Available user roles
Admin: An admin can make any changes in the system.
Manager: A manager can access all data in the system, add new users.
Team Lead: A team leader can manage a group of users and can access their assigned clients and matters, and matters of their team members.
