Neztio has five staff roles at a center, plus a separate Parent role for families. A role controls which parts of the admin portal a person can open and what they can change.

The Five Staff Roles

Above the center there is also a Super Admin role for organization owners who run more than one center.

  • Center Admin: full access to everything at the center, including billing, settings, staff, and credential verification.
  • Manager: everything a Center Admin can do except verifying credentials. Managers manage staff, schedules, PTO, payroll export, and reports.
  • Lead Staff: classroom operations. Lead Staff clock in and out, see coverage, and see their own data, but do not manage other staff.
  • Staff: classroom work. Staff clock in and out, see coverage, and see their own data.
  • View Only: can see coverage and their own data, and cannot change anything.

What Each Role Can Do

  • Manage staff, edit schedules, approve PTO, export payroll, manage credentials, generate reports: Center Admin and Manager.
  • Verify credentials: Center Admin only.
  • Clock in and out: Center Admin, Manager, Lead Staff, and Staff.
  • View coverage and view own data: every role, including View Only.

You can see this table in the app: go to My Info and open the permissions section.

Give people the lowest role that lets them do their job. Most teachers need Staff or Lead Staff, not Manager.
