To Enable a User to Add or Edit a Job
For a User to be able to Add or Edit a Job they need to be enabled on the Katipolt Desktop side. To do this they need to be added to a Katipolt Role with permission “Add/Edit Jobs” toggled to "On".
Company Settings > Staff Top Tab > Roles Expandable Section > Select a Role that displays Katipolt “Add/Edit Jobs” toggled to "On" OR from a Role toggle it to "On" > then select the person from the “Assigned To” dropdown to add
⚠️ NOTE: Toggling "Add/Edit Jobs" to "On" also toggles "View Jobs" to "On". You can Toggle just "View Jobs" to "On" which allows a User to View Jobs, but not Add or Edit a Job.
