In the complex world of logistics, different team members have distinct responsibilities and information needs. 


Muftar recognizes this and implements a robust role-based access system to ensure that each user has the right tools and information at their fingertips.


This article delves into the three primary roles within Muftar: Manager, Driver, and Dispatcher, explaining how role-based access enhances efficiency and security in logistics operations.

What is Role-Based Access?

Role-based access control (RBAC) is a method of regulating access to a system based on the roles of individual users within an organization. In Muftar, this means that the app's interface, features, and accessible information are tailored to the specific needs of managers, drivers, and dispatchers.
