How to grant access to the Reservations page to a user? Can I give access to HBook menus to a user? What are the different roles HBook add?

Answer

Four different user roles are added by HBook plugin:

  • Reservation reader
  • Reservation manager
  • Pricing manager
  • HBook manager

HBook adds as well various capabilities, to allow fine-tuning of user capabilities:

  • a specific capability for access to each HBook menu
  • a capability for viewing the admin reservation list
  • a capability for viewing the customer column in the reservation list
  • a capability for viewing the price column in the reservation list

You can create a new user in Users and select the role for this user.

  • Reservation reader: user who has this role can only read the reservation calendar and the reservation list but can not change anything. Here is what a user with Reservation reader role will see when logged in:

  • Reservation manager: a user who has this role can both read the reservation calendar and manage the reservation list (edit, cancel, delete, confirm, send emails etc...). He can as well add blocked dates or reservations from the back-end. Here is what a user with Reservation manager role will see when logged in:

  • Pricing manager: user who has this role can access the HBook menus that are related to the prices (Seasons, Rates, Booking rules, Extra-services, Fees), as well as the menus Customers, Reservations and the Accommodation types:

  • HBook manager: user who has this role can access all HBook menus, as well as the Accommodation types:
