# Can’t See a Feature or Patient? It Might Be a Permissions Issue

If a Team Member can’t see a patient, access a feature, or perform certain actions, the most likely cause is a **role-based permissions issue**.

---

### 🔐 How Permissions Work

Every Team Member is assigned a **Role** (e.g. Admin, Clinician, Reception) in the Staff Portal.  
Each role has specific **permissions** that control what the user can view and do across the platform.

> 🔧 Permissions are managed in:  
> **Administration → Roles & Permissions**

---

### ✅ How to Check and Fix It

1. **Go to Administration → Team Members**
2. Find the Team Member having the issue.
3. Click their name to view details.
4. Check which **Role** they’re assigned to.
5. Go to **Administration → Roles & Permissions** and open that role.
6. Review the permissions and ensure the relevant ones are enabled.

> ⚠️ **Changes to roles apply to all Team Members assigned that role.**  
> If you need custom access for just one person, consider duplicating the role and editing it.

### 🧩 Not a Permissions Issue? Some Features Are Plan-Based

Some features are included on selected plans or as paid platform extensions. If a feature isn't part of your Organisation's current plan, it won't appear in the Staff Portal at all, no matter which permissions a Role has enabled.

If you think a feature is missing for this reason, contact Wellifiy support or your account manager to discuss activation.
