Permission modules explained
Klovio permissions are built from modules and actions. Understanding them makes building a role straightforward.
Modules
A module is an area of Klovio. The main ones include:
- Product, Category — the catalog
- Inventory — stock levels and adjustments
- Inbound, Receiving, Putaway — receiving work
- Outbound, Picking, Packing — shipping work
- Warehouse, Location — the physical setup
- User, Role — team administration
- Asset — equipment
Actions
Within each module, an action is a thing you can do. Common ones:
- List — see the records
- Create — add new
- Edit — change existing
- Report — view its reports
How they combine
A permission is one module + one action — for example Picking : List. A role is a collection of these. A picker’s role might have Picking: List, Picking: Edit and not much else; a manager’s role has nearly everything.
Designing a role
Start from the job: what does this person actually do? Tick the modules and actions that job needs — and only those. See Create and edit a role.
Tip: List is the gateway action. Without List on a module, a person can’t see it at all — so the module’s other actions are moot. Grant List first, then build up.
