About Roles & Hierarchy
Overview
SALT has moved from individual user permissions to a Role-based system, giving your agency a simpler, safer way to manage access.
Role Descriptions
- Admin: Full account management, including Billing
- Manager: Broad management access, excluding Billing
- User: Limited access for day-to-day work
Role Availability by Plan
- All Plans: Every account includes an Admin role that cannot be edited or deleted. Admins have full access to every aspect of the SALT account.
- Propel: Comes with two fixed roles — Manager and User.
- Propel+: Starts with Manager and User, but agencies can edit those roles and create one additional custom role.
- Middle Market: Starts with Manager and User, but agencies can edit those roles and create up to two additional custom roles.
Custom Roles
- Propel: Limited to the default roles (Admin, Manager, User).
- Propel+ & Middle Market: Support the creation of custom roles that can be tailored to fit your agency’s structure (e.g., Producers, CSRs, Intake staff).
- Unlock the ability to create and customize roles tailored to your agency’s needs
Role Hierarchy
Roles are ordered Admin > Manager > User.
- Lower roles cannot edit higher roles, even if given “manage users” permission.
- Example: A User with the “Invite users” permission can add new Users, but cannot promote themselves or others to Manager or Admin.
Billing & Data Provider Access
- Only Admins can enable/disable Data Providers (Estated, Fenris, MeasureOne) as this permission level is required to access the Billing section where these integrations are located.
- Once enabled, Managers with form edit rights can toggle data provider enrichment on/off at the form level.
Migration Notes
- Accounts will be migrated to the new Role system during the October 10–11, 2025 release.
- Downtime: Friday, October 10, 2025
- Changes live: Saturday, October 11, 2025
