Inviting team members and managing permissions

Overview

Bring your team on board: under "Settings" → the "Team" group → "Employees" you invite colleagues and use roles to control what each person can access.

Invite an employee

  1. Click "Invite".
  2. In the dialog, fill in first name, last name and email address, and choose a role.
  3. Click "Send invitation".

The person receives an activation email with a link (valid for 7 days) and sets their own password. Until then the employee shows as "Pending" — you can resend the activation email if needed.

The system roles

  • Administrator — full access to almost all areas; employee management remains reserved for the account owner (see below).
  • Full access — operationally like an administrator, but without the support tool and employee management.
  • Employee — the day-to-day business: customers, invoices, products and subscriptions in full; payments, dunning and settings read-only.
  • Accountant — a finance focus: billing, dunning, invoices and payments in full, other areas restricted.
  • Support — customer contact: customer management in full, invoices, payments and subscriptions read-only.
  • Read-only — view everywhere, no changes.

Create custom roles

As the account owner you can define your own roles via "Create new role": for each area you choose between "No access", "Read" and "Full access". For security reasons, employee management itself can never be delegated to a role with full access.

Management by administrators

With the "Administrators may manage employees" option (changeable only by the account owner) you allow holders of the "Administrator" system role to create, edit, deactivate and delete employees. The account owner themselves cannot be changed by anyone.

How many seats your plan includes

Every plan comes with a fixed number of user seats. Each active account counts towards it, including your own as the account owner — deactivated employees do not occupy a seat.

  • Starter — up to 3 users
  • Growth — up to 5 users
  • Pro — up to 10 users
  • Scale — up to 10 users

Once every seat is taken, no further invitations can be sent. You then have two options: deactivate an account you no longer need, or move up to the next plan.

When downgrading your plan

A downgrade is rejected while more users are active than the target plan allows. Kyvento tells you how many seats the target plan has and how many you currently use. Deactivate the surplus accounts first, and the change goes through. This is deliberate: otherwise employees would be locked out without warning during the switch.

Deactivate or delete an employee

Via the menu next to each employee, accounts can be deactivated (login blocked, data retained) or deleted at any time.
