  • Add Roles:
    - A full admin role has been created for both Enterprise and Location – at least 1 user must have this role in each portal.
    - Create additional Roles - You can create an unlimited number of roles - be specific to restrict user privileges. Delete should be reserved for Top Administrator.
    Important: If you use Select to automatically select all check boxes, remember to clear the check box under Location > Employee for View Only Default Employees unless you want to include that role. It restricts the view access and limits the employee list at the location so that only employees with that location as the default are listed.
    - Assign correct roles to each user.
