# 10. Multi-store & teams

1\. Create stores in \*\*Settings → Stores → New store\*\*. Each store has its own hours, services, staff, menu and agenda (a new store comes with a blank weekly agenda to fill in). 2. Switch stores in the \*\*store switcher\*\* (the pill in the top corner). The active store is kept across sessions. 3. \*\*Deleting\*\* a store removes everything that belongs to it; that store's booking history is removed too (there's a clear warning). You can't delete the last store.

# 10.1 Multiple stores

1. Create stores in **Settings → Stores → New store**. Each store has its own hours, services, staff,
   menu and agenda (a new store comes with a blank weekly agenda to fill in).
2. Switch stores in the **store switcher** (the pill in the top corner). The active store is kept
   across sessions.
3. **Deleting** a store removes everything that belongs to it; that store's booking history is removed
   too (there's a clear warning). You can't delete the last store.

# 10.2 Staff across stores

A staff member can be assigned to **several stores**, with a different service scope in each and
**per-store working hours** (see 2.8). When they have access to more than one store, they also see the
store switcher.

# 10.3 Roles and access

| Role | Appointments | Store setup | Business / Stores |
|---|---|---|---|
| **Employee** | ✓ | — | — |
| **Store admin** | ✓ | ✓ | — |
| **Business admin** (owner) | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ |

The owner is also created as a staff member with access to all stores. Set each member's role in their
edit page (see 2.7).

# 10.4 Tips & troubleshooting

- **Different timezones:** if stores are in different timezones, set the correct **business timezone**
  (chapter 12) — it's the reference for "today/now" and reminders.
- **A staff member not showing in a store:** check they have an assignment (`StaffMemberStore`) for that
  store and the **service scope** isn't *None*.
- **Can't delete a store:** you can't delete the **last** store of the business.

> 💡 **Scenario:** the manager (Business admin) runs the 3 stores and switches in the picker; each
> barber (Employee) only sees their store and their bookings. Assign barbers who work in two stores to
> both, with **per-store hours** (2.8).
