Billing Permissions
As your firm grows, there can come a time where an individual staff member's activities and rates can become more sensitive, and it may be no longer appropriate or desirable to allow staff members to view activity or financially specific information on a matter.
To meet this need we have released User Permissions. User Permissions can be set by a Firm Owner and are designed to restrict sensitive information to best suit the firm’s needs.
User Permissions have four primary areas of access:
Full Billing Access is the default setting and will give full access to billing and staff billing-related information on a matter. Firm Owners can access permissions by logging in to the Smokeball desktop, going to the Settings icon, selecting Staff & Users, and then clicking on the Permissions button.

- Time Entries: This will show or hide a staff member's time entries, including the rates
- Billing Widget: This will show or hide the Billing widget shown on a matter, which contains financial information about that matter
