Roles & Permissions
Access in REV23 adds up from three sources:
- Roles — built-in access for Artist, Manager, Front Desk, Payroll, and Booking work. A user can hold more than one.
- Artist skills — the Artist role derives a working set of permissions from the provider’s assigned skills.
- Individual permissions — anything beyond role and skills, toggled per user for the edge cases.
The subscription owner holds every permission and can’t be modified. A handful of actions are owner-only and never appear as permissions at all.
Permission groups tied to an optional feature appear only while it’s on for your Cloud: the Sales groups, the Booking groups, Payroll and Personal Payment Account, and the Sales Tax and Close of Day reports. Compensation and Earnings always appear — seeing pay isn’t tied to running payroll.
How permission names read
Section titled “How permission names read”Docs and the app name each permission by its group and action — Customers → Export, Checkouts → Refund. The actions follow a few rules:
- View and Edit cover the user’s own records — services they’re assigned to, their bookings, their rates. View (everyone) and Edit (everyone) cover the whole studio’s.
- Edit includes View. Edit (everyone) includes all four.
- Manage is a standalone on/off for a settings or admin area.
- Named actions — Refund, Export, Delete, Apply custom discount, and the rest — stand alone. Edit does not include them; each one is granted on purpose.
Built-in roles
Section titled “Built-in roles”| Role | Typical user | In short |
|---|---|---|
| Artist | Self-managed service provider | Customers, assigned and unassigned services and forms, care, their own bookings and pricing, pay, and the supply catalogs required by their skills. The role grants nothing until the user has a skill. |
| Manager | Owner’s right hand, studio lead | Full operational access: customers, services, forms, sales, booking, care, catalogs, templates, users, studio settings, and the whole-team Earnings report. Not included: general customer identification, payroll, pay rates — even their own, unless they also have Artist access or an individual grant — webhooks, form deletion, and the Revenue and Balances reports. |
| Front Desk | Counter staff, receptionists | Customers, services (including assigning artists), ideas, forms, booking, the register — ring sales, take payments, issue credit — and the Close of Day report. No refunds or custom discounts. General customer medical and identification details stay restricted, while complete forms remain available for review. |
| Payroll | Bookkeeper, payroll admin | Run payroll, see everyone’s earnings and pay rates, override commission, and read the sales data behind the numbers. |
| Booking | Remote booker, scheduling assistant | The calendar and every booking on it, plus the customers, ideas, and services scheduling touches. |
Service providers normally hold Artist with their skills. Combine roles when someone wears two hats: an artist who covers the counter can hold Artist and Front Desk.
Permission reference
Section titled “Permission reference”Grouped the way the app groups them. Artist + skill in the third column means the Artist role derives the permission when the user has at least one skill; specific skills are named where the scope is narrower. The owner always has everything, and any permission here can also be granted to a single user directly.

What the Artist role grants
Section titled “What the Artist role grants”The Artist role and at least one skill grant the working set: customers (view, edit, medical details), services (assigned and unassigned — create, view, edit, assign), forms for that work (view and review), ideas, care journeys and care plans, own bookings, own pricing, own pay rates, and earnings. The role by itself and skills without the role grant none of this derived access.
Tattoo, Permanent Makeup, and Microblading add ink and needle management; Piercing adds jewelry and needle management. Removal and Adornment add nothing beyond the working set.
Analytics is deliberately not in the working set — the Analytics page shows whole-studio numbers, so it’s granted by role or individually.
Removing Artist does not remove skills, the artist seat, studio assignments, or bookability. An existing seat and matching skills still support permanent public links, personal time blocks, and license maintenance. Personal profile, security, notifications, and signature also remain. Other roles and individual permissions continue to apply.
Owner-only actions
Section titled “Owner-only actions”These belong to the subscription owner alone. They never appear as permissions, and no role or grant can hand them to anyone else:
- Subscription and billing
- The Cloud’s display name, logo, and public-page appearance
- API keys
- Assigning roles and permissions
- Setting other users’ passwords, and deleting users
- Deleting a studio, a completed sale, or a credit
- Setting pay rates and commission
- Studio payment setup — REV23 Payments and terminals
