Admin
Adding users and understanding roles
3 min read
DOVA uses role-based access control. Every user has one role, and the system only shows them what their role allows.
The five roles
- Company Admin — full access across your company. Usually the founder or operations lead.
- Location Manager — access scoped to one plant. Cannot see other locations.
- Supervisor — runs a shift. Sees work orders, downtime, and operators in their department.
- Operator — clocks into work orders, logs downtime, sees their personal dashboard.
- Viewer — read-only access for executives or auditors.
Inviting someone
Open the Users page, click Invite, pick a role and (if relevant) a location, and enter their email. They get a secure invitation link that lets them set their own password.
Access rules are enforced on every database query, not just in the user interface. A user cannot reach data outside their scope even by crafting direct requests.
