Hi @Rue1 ! 

 

I believe you are asking how to make it to where employees can manage/monitor inventory stock but not have access to pertitent business information? If I'm wrong let me know. I have included the steps below on how to create permission set and add a team member. 

 

To add team permissions in Square, you can create a permission set in the Square DashboardYou can also add team members and assign them permissions. 
 
Add a team member 
 
  1. Go to Staff > Team in the Square Dashboard
  2. Click Create Team Member
  3. Enter the team member's information
  4. Select Complete setup
  5. Enter the team member's job title
  6. Select Set up permissions
  7. Choose a permission set or create a new one
  8. Enable the permissions for the team member
  9. Click Save
Create a permission set 
 
  1. Sign in to the Square Dashboard
  2. Select Staff > Team > Permissions
  3. Select Create permission set
  4. Choose a permission level: Standard, Enhanced, or Full
  5. Customize the set by clicking Customize
  6. Select access points for team members
  7. Enter a passcode or select Generate to create a random passcode
  8. Select Save

 

I hope this helps!

Hey there @Rue1.  More information please.  What do you mean by “some boards?”

@Rue1 I’ll add one thing to @Summer2024‘s reply, since you specifically asked about the “free version.”

 

Whether or not this will work with the free tier depends on how many permission sets you need.  You are limited to one permission set (in addition to the Owner set that we all have by default).  So, as long as all employees can use the same permission set, you will be fine on the free tier.  However, if you need different permission sets for different jobs, then you’d be required to upgrade to a paid tier.
