WFM UK: HR: Definitions of HR Permissions

Overview

There are a large number of different user permissions that can be assigned within the HR module. This article lists them all by area, along with descriptions and suggestions for where they could be used.

• To assign permissions to a user, go to HR Module > Users > Assign User Access > select user > User Profile > select access levels/tick boxes > Next > assign Locations > Next > assign Divisions > Next

After following these steps the user profile screen will be displayed again with the changes applied. 

Some of the permissions are controlled by tick boxes. This is a simple 'yes or no' choice. 

Others have a drop-down menu from which the following selections can be chosen:

• No Access - the permission is not assigned
• Read Only - the user can view information but make no changes
• Full Access - the user can view information, make changes, and edit existing settings
• Edit Only - the user can view information and edit existing data, not make new changes

All descriptions in the table below are based on the user being given Full Access permissions.
