School ERP Roles & Permissions: A Complete Guide
Not every employee needs access to every part of a school management system.
A receptionist does not need access to financial reports. A librarian does not need access to examination settings. A teacher may need student attendance and marks but not the complete fee database.
This is why Roles & Permissions are important.
Where to Find Roles & Permissions
Go to:
Settings & Billing → Roles & Permissions
The manual identifies six standard roles:
| Role | Primary Responsibility |
|---|---|
| School Admin | Overall administration |
| Teacher | Classroom and teaching activities |
| Accountant | Fees and finance |
| Receptionist | Front office |
| Librarian | Library |
| Academic Master | Academic coordination |

How Permissions Work
A role determines:
- Which menu items appear.
- Which pages a user can open.
- What actions the user can perform.
Permissions are organized according to different modules such as:
- Student
- Fees
- Examination
- HR
- Library
- Transport
- Reports
Important: Review the Teacher Role
The manual specifically notes that the default Teacher role can contain a broad set of permissions.
For a large school, administrators should review these permissions before providing teacher accounts. Adhyan Parivesh Pro – User Manu…
For example, a school may decide whether teachers should be able to:
- Publish results
- Manage examinations
- Generate certificates
- Manage timetable
- Manage library
- Publish notices
How to Edit Permissions
Open the required role.
Then:
Edit Role → Select/Deselect Permissions → Save
A role must retain at least one permission.
Why Permission Management Matters
Good permission management helps maintain:
- Data security
- Department-wise access
- Administrative control
- Clear responsibilities
- Reduced accidental changes
Conclusion
A school ERP becomes more effective when every employee has access to the information required for their responsibility—without unnecessary access to other modules.
