How do I add a new custom role?

Permissions in Soldo help companies control what users can and can't do. Permissions are a set of rules assigned to a role (e.g. Admin, Manager, Accountant, Employee) and applied to a set of resources (e.g. wallets, cards, users).

Default roles & their permissions

• Admin – For selected users to manage the company's money and day-to-day running of Soldo.
• Manager/Leader – Access to and management of a set of resources (users, cards, wallets).
• Accountant – View and generate reports, and manage accounting integrations.
• Employee – Manage their own cards and assigned resources.
