Product areas and access

The product areas available in Made with Pepper and how roles control access.

On this page

The application connects customers, work, documents, purchases and reports. Two controls determine access: enabled modules and account permissions.

Change enabled modules

Settings > Modules lists each module, its state and its dependencies. Expand a module to read its permissions, record types, tools and scheduled jobs.

Invoices, Customers, Items, Files, People and Settings are core modules. They stay on. Engagements, Purchases and Reports are optional modules.

Only the active owner can change module states. Admins can read the page.

  1. Open Settings > Modules.
  2. Find the optional module.
  3. Click Turn on or Turn off.
  4. Read the confirmation for that module.
  5. Confirm the change.

To turn on a module, its dependencies must already be on. You cannot turn off a module while an enabled module depends on it. Open obligations can also block a change. Read the refusal before trying again.

Turning off a module does not delete its records. A successful change appears in the audit log. Turning it on does not grant missing account permissions.

Control access with roles

An owner or admin can invite people and assign roles. Built-in roles provide common permissions. Custom roles select permitted actions. A guest scope can further limit modules and named records.

Module access is a ceiling. A role cannot open a disabled module, and a guest scope cannot add a missing role permission. See Roles and permissions.
