Team Management
Iraca has two tiers of team management — a simple access-level system available to everyone, and a full role and permissions engine available as the Team Management add-on.
Tier 1 — Access Levels (always available)
Every team member has one of three access levels:
| Level | What they can do |
|---|---|
| Owner | Full access to everything, including billing and plan changes. There is one owner per account. |
| Admin | Full access except billing and owner-only settings. Can invite and remove members. |
| Member | Standard access to day-to-day features. Cannot manage the team. |
To change a member's access level, go to Settings → Team, find the member in the table, and use the dropdown in the Access Level column. (Only the owner can do this.)
To invite someone: click Invite Member, enter their email, choose their access level, and send. They'll receive a link to accept the invitation and set up their account.
Tier 2 — Roles & Permissions (Team Management add-on)
The Team Management add-on adds a custom role engine on top of the access-level system. It's designed for teams that need more control over who can see or do what — for example, limiting a production operator to production features only, or giving a warehouse manager inventory access without touching orders.
When the add-on is active, the Team page gains three tabs: Members, Roles, and Departments.
How roles work
A role is a named set of permissions (for example, "Production Lead" or "QA Inspector"). You assign one role per team member. That role determines which actions they can take beyond what their Tier 1 access level already allows.
Important: Tier 1 access levels are always in effect. Owners and Admins retain full access regardless of which role is assigned to them — roles add granularity for Members.
Seeded roles
The add-on comes pre-loaded with 11 roles to cover common team structures. These are marked System and cannot be deleted, but you can Clone any of them to create a customized version.
| Role | Typical use |
|---|---|
| Owner | Full access — mirrors the owner access level |
| Administrator | Full access — mirrors admin |
| Production Lead | Manage production runs and recipes |
| Production Operator | Start and complete production runs; log CCP readings |
| QA Inspector | Log CCP readings and deviations; view compliance records |
| Warehouse Manager | Manage inventory, transfers, and warehouses |
| Warehouse Staff | Receive and adjust stock |
| Accountant | Access accounting, reports, and journal entries |
| Sales / Fulfillment | Manage orders, customers, and shipping labels |
| Compliance Officer | Full compliance module access |
| Viewer | Read-only across all modules |
Creating a custom role
- Go to Settings → Team → Roles.
- Click New Role.
- Enter a name, optional description, and pick a color.
- Check the permissions you want this role to grant. Permissions are grouped by module — you can toggle an entire module at once.
- Click Create.
Assigning a role to a team member
- Go to Settings → Team → Members.
- Find the member and use the Role dropdown to assign them a role.
Changes take effect immediately on their next action — no need to ask them to log out.
Departments
Departments are labels you can assign to team members for organizational purposes. They don't affect permissions — they're for your own reference and will be used in upcoming reporting and operator tracking features.
When Team Management is activated, nine departments are created automatically:
| Department | Typical use |
|---|---|
| Management | Owners and admins |
| Production | Production floor staff and leads |
| Quality Assurance | QA inspectors and compliance staff |
| Warehouse | Receiving, picking, and stock control |
| Shipping & Fulfillment | Packing and dispatch |
| Purchasing | Supplier relations and procurement |
| Sales | Order creation and customer accounts |
| Finance | Accounting and financial reporting |
| Customer Service | Order support and returns |
You can rename, recolor, or delete any of these, and add new ones at any time. Go to Settings → Team → Departments to manage them.
Bundling
Team Management is automatically included — at no extra charge — when you are on any of these plans or have any of these add-ons active:
Plans that include Team Management:
- Grove
- Canopy
- Enterprise
- Recipe Studio Pro
Add-ons that include Team Management:
- Accounting & Close
- FDA Acidified Foods Compliance
- HACCP Plan & Compliance
- Point of Sale
If you are already on one of those plans, or have any of those add-ons active, Team Management is already available to you. If you later remove all of them and do not have a standalone Team Management subscription, the add-on will be deactivated automatically — your role and department data is preserved and will be restored if you reactivate.
