Overview of the Limited Admin Access Role
Within your community, you can add admins that have different levels of access. Right now, you have the option to add either "Full Access" or "Limited Access" admins. The theme of limited admin access is that limited admin can view the data in your community, help book appointments for students, create events, and edit the details of their own student interactions. We allow limited admin editing capabilities over their own appointments, events, and check-ins.
To use this feature, an admin with full access can add limited admin to their Penji Community. To add a limited admin you will navigate to Settings > General Settings > Admin Users > enter the user's email address and select "Limited Access" for their access level.
A user with limited admin access will log in to https://admin.penjiapp.com/, just like someone with full access. If the new admin already has a Penji Account, they will log in to the admin website with the same Penji credentials. Once logged in, they'll see fewer tabs on the left-hand side compared to someone with full access.
