Granting Employees access to the R365 Red App and limited-use R365 portals is a simple process. Once the Employee Record has been imported from the POS via the POS Integration or manually created, the Employee can be granted 'App Access'.


For a quick view into which Employees have App Access, view the 'App Access' column on the Employees page. To give managers 'App Access' to view their Schedules while also having higher-level Permissions, learn how to configure Manager User Records.



The App Access Process


Granting 'App Access' and saving the Employee Record allows the following actions to happen:

  1. Employee Gets Notified. When 'App Access' is clicked, the 'Send Temporary Password' button will appear that, when clicked, will send the Employee either a text message or email (depending on their 'Preferred Contact Method') with a temporary password.

  2. Employee Logs In. The Employee will then use the temporary password to log in to R365 on either the web browser or mobile app and will then be prompted to reset their password to one of their choosing.

  3. User Record is Created. A User Record will be automatically created for the Employee when App Access is enabled on their Employee Record. Having this role grants the Employee access to the R365 Red App and the limited-use Employee Portal from a web browser.


'Employee App Access' is a User Role for Employee Users, and cannot be taken away without revoking access to R365. This will provide Employees access to viewing their Schedules. If Employees will be utilizing the Manager Log module, they must also be assigned 'Smart Ops Manager Log' Permissions.


Managers who need a higher level of access to R365 while also having Employee App Access to view their Schedules will need to be granted 'Employee App Access' as part of setting up their User Record. Learn how to configure Manager User Records here. Learn more about User Setup here.
