How to Add Staff and Control Access in KorpKit

Why staff access matters

As a business grows, the owner should not give every team member full account control. Staff access helps different people do their work without exposing every setting.

One person may handle orders. Another may handle files. Another may handle invoices. Another may handle support. KorpKit should keep those responsibilities organized.

Good access control protects the business, the clients, the files, and the billing workflow.

Owner vs staff

The owner account controls the tenant business. It should have access to package, billing, services, domain, email, payment settings, storage, and high-level setup.

Staff accounts should usually have only the access they need to complete their work. A designer may need orders and files but not billing settings. A billing person may need invoices but not domain settings.

This separation reduces mistakes and makes the portal safer.

Adding staff

The tenant owner can add staff where the package allows it. Free may allow very limited employee access. Paid packages can unlock more team controls depending on the plan.

When adding staff, use a real email address and choose the correct role or permissions. Do not reuse one login for many people.

Each staff member should use their own login so activity and responsibility stay clear.

Assigning work

Order assignment helps the admin decide who is responsible for a job. This is useful when the business has multiple service types or multiple workers.

A staff member can focus on assigned work instead of searching through all orders.

Assignment also helps the owner see which orders are pending, processing, on hold, or finished.

Controlling invoice access

Not every staff member should see billing information. Invoice access should be limited to the owner, billing staff, or trusted managers.

This protects client payment details, business revenue information, and invoice decisions.

A simple rule is this: if a person does not need invoice access to do their job, do not give it to them.

Controlling file access

Files can contain client artwork, private instructions, business work, and final deliverables. File access should match the person’s work responsibility.

Workers who produce the order may need source files and final-file upload access. Other staff may only need status visibility.

Good file access reduces accidental deletion, wrong uploads, and unauthorized downloads.

Package limits

Staff access depends on the tenant package. Free has limitations. Paid packages can unlock stronger team controls and more business-level permissions.

If a tenant needs more employees, better roles, or advanced access rules, upgrading may be required.

This keeps the free package simple and keeps advanced operational tools available for businesses that need them.

Simple summary

Use the owner account for high-level control. Add staff only when needed. Give each staff member the least access required to do their job.

Use assignment and permissions to keep orders, invoices, files, and settings organized.

Good staff control makes KorpKit safer and easier to run as the business grows.
