Overview of Roles & Kindo Shop

Overview of Roles & Kindo Shop

ORGANISATION AND SUPPLIERS

When you first register your school, you are setting your school up as the Organisation. 

  • Every organisation has Suppliers, which provide items to the organisation.
  • Suppliers can be internal (e.g. your school office), or external (e.g. Pita Pit).


ADMINISTRATOR ROLES

There are three main administration roles within Kindo. One person may do all three roles, or each role may have a different person assigned to it. Most schools start off by giving one or two people all three administrative roles, then add others as they feel more confident using the system.

OTHER ROLES

In addition, two other roles can be assigned to Kindo Shop.

1. Manager Role: this role is not necessary, however if this role is assigned the Manager has access to the Kindo Customer page where they can cancel and refund orders. The Manager must be both a Service Administrator AND Order Administrator. They will only have access to cancel or refund transactions for the supplier(s) for which they are the Order Administrator.

2. Accounts Contact: this person receives the invoices and copies of sales & finance reports each week.

WEBSITES

Kindo has both a Partner website and a Shop website. This enables Administrators to edit items, categories and services (on the Partner site), without it affecting the shop site until you are ready to publish.

  • The partner site is where the organisations set up the home page of their Kindo Shop website, and suppliers (both internal and external) set up their categories and items to be purchased. Work done on this site is not visible on the shop site until you Save & Publish your changes.
  • The shop site is where families and students go to purchase items and suppliers go to check for orders. Items are only visible on the shop site once they have been published from the partner site.
