Users & Access

Add, edit, and remove the people who can sign into your business. This page is owner-only — managers and other roles do not see it.

Users & Access entry in the owner navigation

Prerequisite: Selflane Account

Each user must already have a Selflane account before you can grant them access. If they don’t, ask them to sign up  first, then return to this page and add them by email.

Access Levels

LevelScope
OwnerFull access to Back Office, POS, billing, and the Owner’s Portal.
ManagerSame as Owner except for the Owner’s Portal (no billing, no user management).
CustomAccess only to the sections you select per user.
POS App OnlySign in to the POS app only — no Back Office access at all.

For Enterprise organizations managing multiple businesses, see Enterprise Access. The Enterprise level uses a simpler Owner / Manager pair scoped to regions.

Add a User

Click + Add and enter the user’s Selflane account email, then pick the access level. They can sign in immediately with their existing Selflane password.

Request access to an existing business

If a duplicate-business notice shows the restaurant you need, choose Send access request instead of creating another business.

  1. Sign in with the Selflane account you want to use.
  2. Choose Send access request, review the account details, and add a message for the owner.
  3. Send the request.
  4. Open My access requests from the business picker to check its status or cancel a pending request. This option is also available before you have access to any business.

Sending a request does not grant access or activate online ordering.

Review access requests as an owner

  1. Open Owner's Portal > Users & Access in the Back Office .
  2. Find Access requests and click Review request for a pending request.
  3. Check the requester’s account and message.
  4. To approve, choose the role and any available permissions, then confirm. To refuse access, use the decline action.

Approval grants access to the requester’s signed-in account. Invoicing and Data & History are owner-only and cannot be granted to a custom role.

Tip: Separate Back Office and POS Logins

Create separate accounts for Back Office work and for the iPad POS — even if the same person uses both. Mixing them means a logged-in iPad sees Back Office tools you didn’t intend to expose at the front of house.
