The different types of permissions and how to assign them to users

There are four different permission levels - Owner, Admin, Colleague and Manager. Keep in mind that you can be both an Owner and Manager or an Admin and Manager in Simployer One. Only Owners are allowed to set permissions in Simployer One!

To review what the differences are between each level and role, head over to Settings > Permissions.

Assigning or changing permission levels

Find the employee you want to change permission for (managers are found under Colleague).
Mark them and click Change role and choose which permission level they should have. (Manager role is only assigned when a person has at least one employee who reports to them).

Customize Manager permission

For managers you can make the choice if they are going to have access for entire subordinate tree and/or if they should have access to their employees compensation. This choice can be made after you have invited the managers to Simployer One. The company default settings can be overridden by settings per manager.

NOTE: Only Owners can change a person's permission level.
