Team roles and permissions

    Last updated 2026-06-24

    Patriot Hauls has three operator roles — owner, manager, and staff — so you can give your crew exactly the access they need and nothing more. The role someone has decides what they can see and do across the dashboard.

    The three roles at a glance

    • Owner — full access to everything, including billing, team management, and account deletion.
    • Manager — everything operational (fleet, pricing, contracts, marketing, settings, analytics) but no billing, team management, or account deletion.
    • Staff — day-to-day work only: bookings, messages, leads, calendar, renters, access codes, and reviews.

    What each role can do

    AreaStaffManagerOwner
    Bookings, messages, leads, calendar, renters, reviewsYesYesYes
    Access codesYesYesYes
    Fleet, pricing, contracts, add-ons, couponsNoYesYes
    Business profile & settingsNoYesYes
    Marketing, analytics, chat widgetNoYesYes
    Banned rentersNoYesYes
    Billing & subscriptionNoNoYes
    Manage teamNoNoYes
    Delete the accountNoNoYes

    Think of it as a ladder: staff handle the day-to-day, managers configure the business, and owners control money and the account itself.

    Changing someone's role

    An owner can change any member's role from Settings → Team — pick a new role from the dropdown next to that person. See inviting your team for how invites work.

    Heads up: Every account needs at least one owner. You can't demote or remove the last owner — promote someone else to owner first.

    How many people you can add

    Seat limits depend on your plan: Recruit/Free is owner-only, Operator allows 2, Elite allows 7, and Fleet Commander is unlimited. See plans overview for the full breakdown.
