# Staff Login

Allow your staff to login and manage their schedule

This page shows you how to give a staff member their own login so they can manage their schedule.

## Turning on Can Login

{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Save the profile

Save the staff profile. A welcome email goes out to the staff member, giving them access with their own username/password combination.
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

## Staff Welcome Email

The welcome email is sent the first time a staff member is set to log in. You can customize its wording to include your welcome text, instructions and any additional information your business requires.

To edit it, go to **Settings → Locations → (your location) → Email Notifications → Staff Email**.

Every welcome email includes your welcome text along with a password setup link, so the staff member can set up their account.
