Separate Email Address for Payroll Than Square Account Email

The title of this thread has been edited by a Square Moderator from the original: "Payroll- would like a separate email address registered for Payroll than my main account email"

I run a company that has several employees. One of my employees needs to be able to see Square communication emails from customers, marketing summaries, etc. but because we can seemingly have only one email registered for the account, they also see all payroll related emails, which I would prefer go just to me. Is there a way to separate these things with two different emails?

Hi there- go to staff > permissions and create a new permission set (upper right corner).

You can edit the permission set to add more or less functionality.

You then add that permission to the employee from the team member screen
