Can I turn off access to reports on iPad, but allow it on dashboard MacBook ? 

Can I deactivate the iPad, then have employee sign in as guest?

Hi @lois

 

You're able to implement these restrictions with the Employee Management features. It sounds like you'd need to create a role that allows for Dashboard access for reports, but also restricts access to the reports tab in the Mobile Point of Sale permissions.

 

Check out the thread that we created to help with selecting and creating roles if you need an idea of how to use this feature: 

Selecting the Best Employee Permissions & Roles for your Staff

Hello to All,

 

I have a similiar question.  I want to disable Reports on my shop iPad but still be able to access them from my Laptop or computer.  I really would like to hide the REPORTS tab on the iPAD.  Passcode and Permissions isn't useful.  Please advise at your earliest convenience.  Thank you.

Hey @Houeys

 

There's no way to disable the Reports section of the POS app unless you use Passcodes and Permissions. You'll want to ensure you create an owner password to be prompted when Reports are selected on the iPad. 

 

Take a look here for more information. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to give our Support Team a call. They can walk you through how to limit Reports access without creating an employee profile for each team member.

Hi there @GGreenly

 

That is a great question! You do need to be on Team Plus to receive that feature. If you have further questions about that plan and pricing, we recommend that you get in contact with our Customer Success team directly.
