Step 1: Navigate to Team
Start by logging into your Pabau account using your login credentials. Then, navigate to the "Team" tab located on the left sidebar menu. Click to expand it and click the "Team" sub-tab.
Step 2: Access Staff Member Profile
On this page, you will see all your active staff members listed under the "People" tab. To access a staff member's profile, click on their name or profile picture.
Step 3: Open Permissions
On the staff member's profile, click on "Permissions" in the left-hand menu. This opens a view showing exactly what that individual staff member is allowed to do in Pabau, along with a summary of how many permissions are currently allowed and how many are marked as "sensitive."
Step 4: Locate the Setup Category
On the left side of the Permissions page, click on "Setup" to jump straight to that category. It shows how many of its permissions are currently on, along with how many are sensitive.
"Can delete forms" is marked Sensitive, since it permanently removes medical forms from the Forms page, so it's worth reviewing this carefully before enabling it.
Step 5: Enable or Disable Setup Permissions
The Setup category includes the following individual permissions:
- Can access the Setup page – Will be able to access the Setup page.
- Can access the Forms page – Will be able to access the Forms page.
- Can create forms – Will be able to create medical forms on the Forms page.
- Can delete forms – Will be able to delete medical forms on the Forms page. (Sensitive)
- Can edit forms – Will be able to modify medical forms on the Forms page.
Each permission has its own "Allowed" toggle, which you can switch on or off independently. Alternatively, use the quick actions next to the category header to apply a change to every permission in this category at once:
- Allow basics – Applies a recommended baseline set of permissions for this category.
- All on – Enables every permission in this category.
- All off – Disables every permission in this category.
A few things to be aware of:
- These permissions apply only to this individual staff member, not their role — changing them here won't affect anyone else, even if they share the same role.
- If you'd rather apply a consistent set of permissions across multiple staff members at once, it's easier to set them at the role level instead.
Step 6: Save Your Changes
Once you're happy with your changes, click "Save changes" in the top right corner of the screen.
By following these steps, you can control exactly what setup-level access an individual staff member has in Pabau.
