Roles at a glance
What owners, admins, dispatchers, sales reps, project managers, accounting, techs and subcontractors can see and do.
Every person in Homeforce has one role. The role decides which pages they see and what they can change. You set roles in Users and permissions.
The roles
- Owner: everything, including the plan, billing, Labs and signing people out of their devices. There's one owner per company.
- Admin: everything except the plan, billing and signed-in devices. Good for an office manager or GM.
- Dispatcher / CSR: customers, leads, booking, dispatch, invoices and collecting payments. Doesn't see costs, margins or pay.
- Sales / Comfort Advisor: leads, customers, estimates, invoices and their own sales numbers. No costs. Can be limited to their own pipeline.
- Project Manager: all jobs and projects, crews, change orders, job costing, and approving timesheets. Doesn't see leads.
- Accounting: invoices, payments, refunds, payroll, P&L, accounting sync, exports and the audit log. Views estimates but doesn't edit jobs.
- Technician: jobs they're assigned to, plus estimates, invoices and payments on those jobs, and their own time. Sees prices but never costs or anyone's pay.
- Subcontractor: only the work on jobs they're assigned to, and their own time. No customer list, money or messages. Subcontractors only use the field app.

Extras you can turn on
- Runs estimates: lets someone who isn't a sales rep take estimate appointments.
- Sales reps see only their own pipeline: limits sales reps to leads assigned to them and estimates they wrote or sold.
Both are on the Users & roles page.
Customers
Customers never get a login. Each estimate, invoice or photo report you send has its own secure link that opens only that record.
