3 People and Privileges

In Simphony, privileges determine the activities an employee can perform, the EMC modules available to the employee, and the types of transactions the employee can process. You can configure privileges by the job role (for example, host, server, bartender, cashier, manager).

If you are using

  • Simphony 19.6 or later with Reporting and Analytics 20.1.15 or later

and your EMC employees are managed through People Management, use People Management in Simphony Home to add and edit employees. The Oracle Restaurants Reporting and Analytics User Guide, located on the Oracle Help Center, contains more information about People Management.
If you are using one of the following versions of software

  • Simphony 19.5 or earlier

  • Simphony 19.6 or later with Reporting and Analytics 20.1.14 or earlier

  • Simphony 19.6 or later with Reporting and Analytics 20.1.15 or later

without managing your EMC employees through People Management, you can change the role for an existing employee using the Simphony EMC. Changing Employee Information contains more information on changing employee roles.

If you are using Labor Management with Simphony 19.5 or earlier, you need to add employees using Labor Management. The Oracle Restaurants Labor Management User Guide, located on the Oracle Help Center, contains information about adding employees in Labor Management. The initial employee information is sent from Labor Management to Simphony.
