Governance at Scale: Role-Based Access Control (RBAC)

Granular Authority Management

In a professional hospitality environment, security and data privacy are paramount. You don't want your floor staff accessing sensitive financial analytics, and your chefs shouldn't need to manage billing configurations. TableGreet’s RBAC (Role-Based Access Control) system provides five distinct layers of authority to ensure everyone has exactly what they need—and nothing they don't.

Our roles—Owner, Manager, Chef, Waiter, and Viewer—are not just labels. They are deep permission sets that gate API access at the database level. When a Waiter logs in, the "Billing" and "Settings" tabs simply do not exist in their interface, reducing training complexity and increasing system security.

The Invitation Lifecycle

Managing a team is fluid. Our "Secure Invitation" system allows owners to add staff via email. The recipient receives a unique, time-limited link to create their credentials. If a team member leaves, their access can be revoked with a single click, instantly terminating all active sessions and securing your venue's data.

IMPORTANT

RBAC systems reduce internal data breaches and accidental configuration errors by up to 60%.

  • 5 Distinct Roles: Granular control from "BOH" to "Executive".
  • Secure Email Onboarding: No more shared passwords or sticky notes.
  • Instant Access Revocation: Terminate sessions immediately for departing staff.
  • Audit Attribution: Every action is linked to the specific role that performed it.
