The Staff Permissions controls staff members access to certain aspects of iClassPro. Staff can be sorted into groups with specific permissions called User Groups, or special permissions can be set up for a particular staff member using Advanced User Permissions. This tutorial will cover how to use each method. Please note that you must first Create a Staff Member and then apply permissions before the staff member can log in.

User Groups

User Groups are for assigning the same set of permissions to groups of staff members. For example, you may not want your coaches to have the same sort of access as your front desk staff. Here we will dicuss how to first create a User Group, then how to assign it.

Creating a User Group

  • Make sure you are logged into your iClassPro Account.
  • Click "Settings" in the upper right corner.

  • Name the new User Group in the "User Group Name" box. You must name the User Group before you can save it.
  • Use the radio buttons beside each item to give access to an item. You can hold the mouse over each one for a more detailed description of that permission.
    • Please note that if "Application Access > iClassPro" is left to "None" the staff member will not be able to log in.
    • "View" means the user will be able to view records, but cannot make changes. "Full" allows read/write access.
  • Once complete, click "Save."
  • Your new User Group will appear in the User Group Screen.

 

Applying a User Group to a Staff Member

  • Click on the "Staff" page icon in the upper right section of the page.

Advanced User Permissions

Sometimes certain staff members may need permissions different from their User Group. Specialized permissions can be granted via the Advanced User Permissions feature, which is accessible from the Staff page.

  • Click on the "Staff" page icon.
