Now, adding equipment is easier than ever as you are able to do it from the device of your choice.

Group manager view

New View | Only Group Manager Experience

If you're part of a Group you are likely familiar with the Group Admin Console. We understand that sometimes a person in your organisation needs to access this dashboard, but without the ability to edit forms, resources and suppliers across the group.

With this new update we’ve added the ‘Restricted Group Manager’ role to Safe Food Pro. Now, inside the Group Admin Dashboard under ‘Group Admin Users’ when you create or edit a user you can now use the checkbox to select ‘Restricted Group Manager’.

This new role will offer users Group Admin access but in a read only fashion without the ability to edit forms, resources and suppliers.

New settings page

New Settings Page
