Best Practices

Security tips from successful agencies

Start with Minimal Access

Give new employees the Default Member role. Expand permissions as trust grows.

Create Custom Roles

Build specialized roles like 'Senior Chatter' for experienced staff who need more access.

Monthly Permission Reviews

Audit your roles quarterly. Remove unused permissions and tighten security.

Hide Financial Data

Keep earnings and performance reports restricted to supervisors and owners only.

Document Your Roles

Maintain a simple list of which roles have which key permissions for team clarity.

Test Before Deploying

Create a test employee to verify new role configurations work as expected.

Pro tip: Role changes apply instantly to all employees with that role. If you have 10 chatters as "Member" and add vault access to that role, all 10 gain it immediately.

Common Pitfalls to Avoid

Giving Everyone Admin Access

Reserve Admin for team leads only. Most chatters only need Member access with specific permissions enabled.

Forgetting to Save Changes

Permission toggles preview changes, but you must click Save for them to take effect across your agency.

Ignoring Category Toggles

Use 'Toggle All' within categories for faster configuration instead of clicking each permission individually.

Not Reviewing Regularly

Permissions can accumulate over time. Set a quarterly reminder to audit and tighten access levels.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about roles and permissions

Roles control what actions an employee can perform (permissions), while teams are for organizational grouping (shifts, departments). An employee can be on the 'Night Shift' team with either an Admin or Member role. They work together but serve different purposes.

Yes. OFManager lets you create unlimited custom roles tailored to specific job functions. Start with a default role as a template, then adjust permissions to match your needs. Common examples include Senior Chatter, Content Manager, and Account Supervisor.

In the role's Statistics permissions, toggle off 'View earnings' and 'Performance reports'. Chatters will still see fan engagement data needed for their work, but revenue figures stay hidden from unauthorized staff.

Changes apply immediately to all employees with that role. If 5 chatters have the 'Member' role and you remove vault access, all 5 lose it instantly. This makes role-based management efficient for scaling agencies.

No. Each employee has exactly one role at a time. If you need someone to have permissions from two roles, create a new custom role that combines those permission sets.

Only Owners and Admins can access the Roles & Permissions settings. Regular Members cannot view or change permission configurations, ensuring your security settings stay protected.

Secure Your Agency Today

Proper role configuration protects your creators' accounts and ensures employees only access what they need. Start with tight permissions and expand as trust grows.
