Why do I have users with an "admin" label that are Associates, Owners, and Full Permissions? Why is there no correlation? What does this "Admin" tag mean and how do I remove it?

Hi, @DoofusMcGee!
Thanks for getting in touch, I'm happy to share some context.
That column shows whether your staff has access to just the POS app, or if they can also access the Shopify admin. The "roles" (associate, full permissions, etc.) refer to which specific permissions within the POS app each staff member has, and aren't related to their admin access (which is why there is no correlation). You can read more about roles and permissions in this help document. You aren't currently able to remove this tag, but you can remove admin access for individual staff members if needed.
If you'd like to view all the staff members on your account (and not just the POS staff), you can navigate to Settings > Users and permissions in your admin.
Let me know if you have any other questions!
