Who can do what in Cross-dock Management

Assign preparation, inventory decisions and evidence reading to the people responsible for the dock cycle.

How permissions work

Prepare and coordinate

Inventory Clerk maintains the operational records, prepares stock requests and uses the supported stock actions. Protected quantity effects belong to the action that records their evidence.

Decide and correct

Inventory Supervisor reviews request scope, maintains allocation policy and uses reversal, correction and reconciliation actions. The review reason explains the decision to the clerk handling the work.

Read the evidence

Auditor traces requests, movements and receipts without changing their outcome. That access supports investigation across shifts.

Maintain membership

App Administrator manages the operating organization and team members. Technical account maintenance remains separate from stock approval authority.

Apply operating scope

Record access and guarded actions must respect the organization and user involved. The same care applies when following a supporting document link outside the app.
