HR Manager User Accounts

Managers are users that perform operational tasks within the organisation such as managing human resources. 

Here you will set up their accounts and level of access.

How to Access Manager Settings

Go to your Company Settings page and click the Managers option on the left-hand side menu.

All manager users within the organisation will show on the right-hand side pane.

How to Set up a New Manager

On the Manager’s settings page, click New.

A pop-up window will appear

Here you can:

• Enter the Manager’s personal information

• Grant permissions by assigning a Role

• Manage approval and notification preferences

Set the Manager’s Personal Information

In this section, you can update basic information like name, email, timezone, phone numbers, and position title.

Assign a Role

This section allows you to set a manager to different roles:

• Administrator - Has full access to company settings and permissions within the organisation.

• HR Manager - Access to HR-related processes and settings.

• Team Manager - Only access and manage the daily operations of their own team, i.e. workers that have this user as their line manager.

To assign, click on the role, and the selected role is highlighted in blue. You can assign more than one role to a Manager. The combined permissions will be granted in a cumulative way.

Manage Approval and Notification

The options to approve Leave Requests and Expense Requests grant the user permission to approve requests submitted by workers.

The Email Notification option below complements this by allowing them to receive notifications by email every time a worker submits a request. The options are:

• Do not get notified: The manager will not receive notifications by email, however, they will still be able to view and approve requests if the option above has been enabled.

• From all workers in the organisation: The manager will receive notifications by email from any worker in the organisation. This option is available only when the manager has been granted the HR Manager role.

• From workers in the manager’s team only: The notifications will be limited to only requests submitted by workers in their own team. This option is available only when the manager has been granted the Team Manager role.

Send invitation
Ensure to set this option to “Yes”. So the manager receives an invitation to activate their user account and they'll be able to set up their password.

Once done, click the Save button.
