# shops.sendPermissions

What each role may send to a customer: quotes, invoices and visit recaps. The owner always may, for every job, and is not listed. Office starts able to send all three for any job. A lead starts able to send all three for jobs on their crew. A field worker starts able to send all three for jobs assigned to them. The owner can turn any of these off. A missing row means the default, which is on.
