When a user installs Blackthorn Events via the Candy Shop, we automatically assign the Blackthorn Events Admin and Blackthorn Payments Admin Permission Sets to the installing user.
There are two starting points for assigning permissions: the Blackthorn | Events Admin tab and the Setup menu. You can assign one or more users to a permission set by Assigning a User to a Permission Set. Or you can assign one or more permission sets to your users by Assigning a Permission Set to a User.
If any of your users need access to financial data related to paid registrations or Discount Codes, they will need a Payments license and will need to be related to one of the packaged Payments permission sets or a custom permission set. Financial data includes data from Invoices, Discount Codes, Transactions, Payment Methods, and Payment Gateway objects.

If any users need access to the Payment records, assign them the Blackthorn | Payments (Admin) or Blackthorn | Payments (Manager) permission set.
