Invite the people you work with and give each of them a role. There's one role per person, and Kerno checks it on the server for every action they take.

The roles

  • Owner: full access. That includes deleting the workspace and changing owners.
  • Admin: manages products, formulations, BOMs, materials, suppliers, purchasing, production planning and settings.
  • Operator: running production, recording usage and QA, adjusting inventory and receiving purchase orders.
  • Viewer: can look at all the data but not change it.

Invite a member

  1. Go to Settings, then Team, and click Invite member.
  2. Enter their Email.
  3. Choose their Role. Operator is selected to start.
  4. Click Send invitation.

What happens next

Kerno emails them a link that works for 7 days. To accept, they have to sign in with that exact email address. After they join, you'll see them under Members with their role and the date they joined.

Good to know

  • Click the three dots on someone's row, then Change role, to give them a different role.
  • Leave workspace is on your own row if you want to leave.
  • Owners and admins can switch on A second person approves recipes in Settings, Workspace. With it on, a teammate approves each recipe instead of the person who wrote it.
  • Choosing "A team" under Who uses Kerno in Settings, Workspace shows an "Invite your team" reminder on Home until someone is invited.
