πŸ‘₯ Combining Roles in Bookboost

Introduction

In Bookboost, it is possible to assign multiple roles to a single operator. This gives hotels the flexibility to tailor access for each team member based on their specific responsibilities β€” without needing to grant full Admin access.

Main Concept: Multi-Role Assignment

Each role in Bookboost unlocks a specific set of sections and features. When an operator is assigned more than one role, they gain access to the combined set of sections from all assigned roles. This makes it easy to build custom permission profiles for team members who work across different areas of the platform.

Use Cases

Multi-role assignment is ideal for:

  • πŸ“₯πŸ“£ A team member who needs access to both the Inbox (Service role) and Campaigns (Marketing role) β€” without being granted full Admin access

  • 🏨 Front desk staff who also manage marketing communications for smaller hotel teams

  • πŸ‘€ Operators who need to work across guest profiles, messaging, and campaigns simultaneously

Configuration and Setup

To assign multiple roles to an operator (you need to be an Admin to do this):

  1. Go to Settings in the left-hand menu.

  2. Navigate to Operators.

  3. Select the operator you want to configure, or click + Add new.

  4. Under Add role, select the first role from the dropdown.

  5. Click Add role again and select the second role.

  6. Repeat for any additional roles needed.

  7. Click Save to confirm.

Known Issues or Limitations

  1. Admin role is not required for combined access β€” If an operator needs access to multiple sections, always consider combining specific roles first before assigning Admin. This keeps permissions lean and secure.

  2. Role combinations are additive β€” Each role adds its permissions on top of the others. There is no conflict between roles; the operator simply gains the union of all assigned role permissions.

Conclusion

Combining roles in Bookboost is a powerful and flexible way to give operators exactly the access they need β€” no more, no less. Rather than defaulting to Admin for operators with broader responsibilities, use role combinations to keep your team's permissions precise and secure. βœ…
