Settings & Permissions Reference

Found under Settings → Purchase Orders (admin only) unless noted.

Setting	What it controls
Require Approval	Turns on the submit → approve → order flow. Off by default; PO wizard goes straight from draft to ordered.
Approval Threshold	The order value above which approval is required (per approver, configurable).
Track Landed Cost	Enables the landed-cost panel on the receiving screen.
Cart Margin Display	Off / Margin % / Markup % controls whether and how the wizard shows a profitability column.
Default Cover Days	The default value pre-filled in Replenishment’s “Days of Cover” strategy.
Business Type Preset	Retail (default) or `Restaurant` swaps a handful of labels (e.g. “Reorder Level” → “Par Level”, “Replenishment” → “Par Ordering”) without changing behavior.

A permission can be granted at some locations and not others. An employee only sees and acts on the locations where they hold it.

Note: These are three genuinely separate concepts that are easy to conflate: which locations you’re assigned to, which locations you can search/act on for a given module, and which locations you can see costs at. An employee can be assigned to a store but still have costs hidden there, for example.
