# Managing users

To add a new employee, duplicate an existing user of the same type. This way the permissions are correct straight away.

## Adding a new user

1. Open the back office and log in.
2. Go to **Basic, General, Users**.
3. Decide which type of user you want to add (for example manager, cashier or student worker) and duplicate an existing user of that type.
4. Open the duplicated user and change:  
- the **last name** and the **first name**;  
- the **BOW password**: leave this field empty;  
- the **POS password**: the number the user logs in with on the POS. Not sure what to pick? Use the day and month of birth, for example 1503;  
- the **national register number**: required if there is an FDM (GKS) in the business. Enter it without punctuation;  
- the **Waiter ID**: you can delete this;  
- the **Direct sales ID**: take the current number and increase it, for example by 3.
5. If you work with a **tag reader** (badge), scan the new badge for the user.
6. Go back to the POS and test whether the new user can log in.

> **Warning:** Has the badge been used before? Then first delete the tag reader from the previous user and also clear the POS code there. The old user can stay in the list.
