Slick allows you to create unique user logins for each staff member so they can access their schedule from home or on the go.

You can choose different "permission levels" for staff access, restricting visibility of certain areas like financial or client information.Β 


Each user will have their own username (their email address) and password. To switch users, the current user would log out of Slick and the next user would enter their email address and password.

OR

you can enable PIN codes to log in and out effortlessly. Find out here how to enable them now!


Slick offers 2 levels of staff access:

1. Manager
​Can: Access and edit all areas of the system.
​Cannot: No restrictions.

The default permission for users with Manager access. πŸ‘‡πŸ½

2. Receptionist
​Can:

Create and edit bookings and clients checkout clients, access cash up, view settings and stock, use stock management app and add stock.
​Cannot:

Access any financial reports or dashboards, change service prices, add/delete services, change product prices, edit stock levels in the stock manager.

Optional via Slick support:

View client contact details.

The default permission for users with Receptionist access. πŸ‘‡πŸ½

If you have restricted cash-up access to Receptionist, these will be the default permissions.


Custom Permission:

You can also customize feature access levels for each staff member. Here's how you can set this up:

  • Go to the menu

  • Select 'Staff & Business Settings'

  • Choose 'Staff Access Permissions'

  • Click on the desired staff member's name

  • Check the box next to the feature that you want the staff member to access

Note: To set up custom permissions for a staff member, ensure they're added as a stylist (with or without column) in "staff profiles & logins", have an assigned email and permission level (Manager or Receptionist), and have either remote login or pincode access enabled.

Add email access for staff members to login remotely

  • Go to Staff & Business settings and then to 'staff profiles & logins'.

  • Just click on the staff profile on the Staff access list and you will see the toggle below!

    When you want to allow a staff member to log in anywhere - click the toggle to enable this. (It will turn purple!)

You will then see this pop-up like below πŸ‘‡πŸ½

Once you click on β€œenable” the user will be sent an email with a temporary password and a login link.

The email with a temporary password and login link looks like this πŸ‘‡πŸ½. This temporary password can then be used to sign in to www.getslick.com where the user will be prompted to add their own password!

The temporary password is 8 characters long - Please make sure you're using all 8 characters and where you can please copy and paste it.

You can also choose on this page if you'd like to enable pin codes for all staff. To learn more about PIN codes, click here.


Managing PIN Codes for Staff

Manage pin codes using the instructions below to ensure access for users. We advise using the toggle at the top of the Staff profiles and acess page to enable pins for everyone. This is because when a pin is enabled for one user they need to be enabled for anyone you would like to have access.

Enabling PIN Codes for individual Staff Members

Follow these steps to enable PIN codes for your staff members:

  1. Go to the Menu

  2. Select Staff & Business Settings.

  3. Go to Staff Profiles and Logins.

  4. Enable the required PIN codes for the appropriate staff members. (You can also enable all staff members using the toggle at the top of the page!)

Disabling PIN Codes for individual Staff Members

To disable PINs for your staff, follow these instructions:

  1. Open the Menu.

  2. Choose Staff & Business Settings.

  3. Navigate to Staff Access.

  4. Select the name of the staff member whose PIN code you would like to disable.

  5. Toggle the PIN code option off.
