Assigning permissions to users

How to assign permissions to users 


There are four default permission levels - 1) Owner, 2) Admin, 3) Manager, and 4) Colleague. 


Only Owners are allowed to set permissions in Simployer One, while admins can view permission information.

 

Head over to Settings > Permissions 



Assigning or changing permission levels  

Find the employee you want to change permission for 

  • Mark them with using the checkbox  
  • Select Change role 
  • Choose which permission level they should have 


Keep in mind that an employee can have multiple roles at once.

If an employee has subordinates reporting to them, they are automatically assigned the Manager Role. This role gives  specific abilities to manage your direct reports.

  • Core permission access for other areas in the system can still be defined by your main role — such as Employee, Admin, or Owner.
  • Curious to know what users with different permissions can see and do?

  

Customize default settings 

Managers 

For managers, you can set more granular permissions to apply to all managers in your company or on an individual level. 


You can edit settings for 
  • Access for their entire subordinate tree (enables Manager permissions on the direct reports of their direct reports) 
  • Access to their direct reports' compensation details 
  • Create candidates (the manager field is auto-assigned to themselves 
  • Initiate e-signing of documents for their candidates 
  • Move their candidates to “new hires” 
  • Start onboarding for their own hires 
  • Create and edit competencies
  • View competencies for all employees

Admins  
For admins, you can set more granular permissions to apply to all admins in your company or on an individual level. 
  • Access to Profile Documents
  • Manage custom fields
