Accessing Partner permissions
Back to topBy default, a Partner account is enabled and gives all Partner permissions.
Partner-specific Permissions
Back to topPartners can be given a combination of Partner-specific permissions as needed...
Process Cash POS Payments
This permission enables the Partner to process payments by POS Cash.
Process payments via Payment Provider
This permission enables the Partner to process payments by credit card through your Payment Provider.
Process Account Receivable payments (billed later)
This permission enables the Partner to charge the Customer for the booking, using a third-party payment method, and then owe that to your business on an Account Receivable basis.
This feature also includes a field to collect a payment code. This field can be filled with any value and used to help identify the payments or capture a 3rd party code, such as a voucher code. The Transaction report (Reports > Transaction) includes the payment code.
Product/Item and Category Access Restrictions

To remove access, remove the check mark next to the category or product/item. Don't forget to Save your changes!
Use the Select All and Select None buttons to add or remove all permissions with one click rather than selecting each permission individually.
