    About this task

    Add internal and external members to a business location. You can add both internal users with the snc_internal role and external users with the snc_external role as staff members to an external business location.
    • Administrators and customer service managers can add staff members to any business location.
    • Location managers can add staff members to the business locations that they have access to.
    Note:
    As a user with the sn_customerservice.svc_location_manager role, you can create both internal and external staff members. However, as a user with the sn_customerservice.svc_location_manager_contributor role, you can only create external staff members.

      You can use the record to register new location staff or move existing staff between locations managed by the Location manager, and assign responsibilities to staff accordingly.
