Authentications

After completing the installation process and initializing the database with the seeder, you can start using the system. To run the seeder, open https://your-domain.com/seeder.php in your web browser. This process will populate the database with the necessary data to operate the system and create a default user account. The default user credentials are as follows:

• Phone: 0123456789
• Password: 123456
• Role: This user has full administrative access and can perform any action within the system.

It is strongly recommended to use these credentials to log in and immediately either create a new administrative user, disable the default user, or change its password.

Important Note: Do not simply delete the default user account. If the seeder is run again, this account will be recreated. To prevent unauthorized access, either disable this account or change its password.

Roles Management

The role-based access control system within the application assigns specific roles to users, defining what actions they can perform. Each role encompasses a set of permissions, enabling users assigned to that role to execute specific tasks.

To manage roles:

1. Log in with the default user credentials.
2. In the navigation bar, select Users & reports.
3. Click on Roles to view a list of all existing roles within the system.

From this interface, you can perform several actions:

• Create a New Role: Assign custom permissions to tailor the role according to your system's needs.
• Edit an Existing Role: Modify the permissions of a role to adjust its capabilities.
• Delete a Role: Remove a role from the system, provided no users are currently assigned to it. This ensures that you can maintain a clean and efficient role management structure.

The system's authorization is governed by a roles and permissions framework, which dictates what actions a logged-in user can perform based on their assigned permissions:

• View Permission: If a user has the view permission for a specific table, they can access the table's page to view the list of data.
• Create Permission: With create permission, a user can navigate to the create page to add a new record.
• Edit Permission: Users with edit permission can open the view page and modify data. If a user has view permission but not edit permission, they can only view the data without the ability to make changes.
• Delete Permission: If a user is granted delete permission, the option to delete records will be available on the list page, allowing them to remove records as needed.

This framework ensures that each user has access only to the functions that are necessary for their role, enhancing the system's security and operational efficiency.

Users Management

The system enables specific user management functionalities based on the permissions of the logged-in user. Users with "manage users" permissions can oversee other user accounts through the following steps:

1. Access the users list by navigating to the navigation bar, clicking on Users & reports, and then selecting Users.
2. This action opens a table that lists user details including Name, Role, Phone, and Last Login date.
3. In this table, options to view, edit, or delete user accounts are available depending on the permissions granted.

This feature allows for efficient management of user accounts, ensuring only authorized users can perform administrative actions such as viewing, editing, or deleting user details.

Clients Management

The system facilitates comprehensive clients management for users with the appropriate permissions. Users granted "manage clients" permissions, encompassing create, update, view, and delete capabilities, can administer client accounts by following these steps:

1. Navigate to the clients list by clicking on Users & reports in the navigation bar, then selecting Clients.
2. This action displays a table listing client details such as Name, Phone/Email, OTP, Login Type (options include phone, Google, Facebook, Apple, etc.), Code Version, Device Platform (Android, iOS), and Last Login date.
3. Within this table, options to view or delete client accounts are available, facilitating the management of client information efficiently.

This system's design ensures that only authorized users can access and perform actions on client data, enhancing security and data integrity.

Alarm Contacts Management

The Alarm Contacts management feature enables administrators to curate a list of contacts designated to receive system-generated alarms. These notifications are crucial for immediate awareness and response to various system activities. Available alarms include notifications for:

• Receipt of a new order.
• A client message submitted through the "Contact Us" section.
• An item's quantity nearing depletion.
• Cancellation of an order.

Administrators have the flexibility to add an unlimited number of alarm contacts. Each contact can be individually enabled or disabled, allowing for precise control over who receives these critical notifications.

Reports

Beyond the dashboard, the system offers a variety of reports that provide insights into different aspects of operations. These reports include information on the most ordered items, categories with high demand, delivery areas with the most orders, and top ordering clients.
