    Open Kedjeöversikt → Medlemmar (Chain overview → Members) to see people, groups and active status. Use personal accounts and give each person the access they need.

    Admin or a custom group

    The Admin group has full chain access and makes the person an administrator in every connected restaurant, with the same rights as the restaurant's own administrator: including payroll and personal data. It is protected and should only be assigned when that scope is needed. Vendion asks you to confirm before you move someone into Admin.

    How chain administrators appear in the restaurants

    • Vendion adds the access automatically in every restaurant in the chain, including a restaurant connected to the chain later.
    • In the restaurant's Användare (Users) the person is marked Via kedjan (Via the chain). The restaurant cannot change or remove that access; it is managed here under Medlemmar (Members).
    • If the person already has their own role in a restaurant, for example as staff, they are administrator there for as long as they are a chain administrator. The staff card and the POS PIN keep their own permissions.
    • Every change is recorded in the restaurant's log under Kontrollcenter → Inställningsändringar (Control centre → Settings changes).
    • Chain administrators do not receive the restaurants' notices about bookings, catering and low ratings. Those go to the restaurant's own administrators.

    Custom groups can grant access to menu templates or gift cards in the chain view. The editor offers chain functions; it is not a region selector for restricting the group to particular restaurants. Access to local restaurant administration must be assessed separately for groups other than Admin.

    Create a group

    1. Open the Behörighetsgrupper (Permission groups) tab and select Ny grupp (New group).
    2. Enter Namn (Name) and choose Färg (Colour).
    3. Select the required Behörigheter (Permissions).
    4. Select Skapa grupp (Create group).

    Edit an existing custom group using the pencil and select Spara (Save). Editing menu templates and publishing them are separate permissions; select both if the person needs the full workflow. You must have permission to manage groups and cannot grant more permissions than you hold.

    Add a member

    1. On the Medlemmar (Members) tab, select Lägg till medlem (Add member).
    2. Enter the person’s exact address in E-postadress (Email address).
    3. Choose Behörighetsgrupp (Permission group).
    4. Select Lägg till (Add) and check the list.

    The person must already have a Vendion account with that email address. This is not an invitation: no message is sent. If the account is not found, check the address and contact Vendion if needed.

    Change or pause access

    • Select another group in Grupp. The change saves immediately.
    • Turn Aktiv off to pause chain membership, or back on to reactivate it.
    • The bin removes the membership after confirmation. It does not delete the person’s Vendion account.

    For the Admin group, restaurant access follows the chain. If you pause the membership, remove it or move the person to another group, the administrator access in the restaurants ends immediately, and an existing role in a restaurant returns to what it was. Vendion does not carry out the change if a restaurant would then have no administrator; add a local administrator there first. Memberships the restaurant set up itself are not affected. Review them when someone leaves or changes responsibilities.
