# Staff and Permissions

One of the first actions you'll want to take after creating your store is adding user accounts to the control panel.

#### Step 1: Accessing Staff Roles

2. In this section, you can create and manage different staff roles.

#### Step 2: Adding a New Role

1. Click on the **"Add New Role"** button.
2. Enter a **Role Name** to identify the new role (e.g., Admin, Sales, Support).
3. Provide a **Description** to give context to the role's responsibilities.

#### Step 3: Setting Permissions

1. Select the specific permissions you want to assign to this role. This determines what actions staff members with this role can perform.

#### Step 5: Managing Staff Roles

#### Note:

* Assigning roles and permissions helps organize your staff members and defines their responsibilities within the platform.
