AUTH201: Insufficient role

What this means​

Your account does not have permission to perform this action.

Ask a store administrator to check the account's roles and capabilities, then try again.

Your data​

No order or product data is affected. If this persists, ask your store administrator.

Troubleshoot​

At the till — for the cashier: note which action was refused (the log entry records it) and pass that to your administrator.

On the store — for the site administrator: review the account's roles — POS cashiers need the POS capabilities WCPOS registers, and role-editing plugins can strip them.

If the account can sign in but every product, customer or order request is refused, check whether it holds more than one role. Role-editor plugins such as Members apply a Deny placed on any one role to the whole account, so an Administrator who is also a Customer loses whatever the Customer role denies. Remove the extra role or clear the Deny marks; see A user with more than one role.

Back at the till: once the role is corrected, sign out and back in if a POS session is still open; otherwise, sign in again. Then retry the refused action.
