Role Overview

The Four Roles

Deckle Plus ships with four roles that map to the typical structure of a paper mill's production team. Every user is assigned exactly one role.

  • Admin: full access including machine configuration, paper type management, and user account management. Typically the production manager or IT administrator.
  • Planner: order entry, optimization, and run creation. Cannot modify machine or paper type configuration. Typically the production planner or shift supervisor.
  • Operator: floor execution, view assigned runs, log waste events, and close runs. Cannot create or modify orders or patterns.
  • Supervisor: read-only access to all production data including runs, inventory, and analytics. Can approve promotions in the Sandbox flow (Suite plan).

Assigning Roles

Roles are assigned at user account creation by an Admin. A user's role can be changed at any time and takes effect on their next login. There is no limit on the number of users per role.
