Employee Level Security Overview

Use the Employee Security feature to limit the information seen by users on the Employee Information and the Employee Groups screens.

Accomplish this by selecting the Apply Employee Level Security check box on the Security Roles screen. If you select this check box, users that are assigned to that particular security role will see only those employees whom they supervise.

Example of Employee Level Security Sample Scenario

If, for example, you want to limit Employee Z's access to Employee Group Z, you must make sure that the following are in place:

• Employee Group Z has already been created on the Employee Groups screen.
• Employee Z is assigned a supervisor, with the appropriate functional role. under Employee Group Z.
• Employee Z is assigned to the appropriate security role.

  If the Employee Level Security setup is correct, then when Employee Z opens the Employee Information screen and does a search, only the employees from Group Z are visible. When employee Z opens the Employee Groups screen, only Employee Group Z is visible.

  To give Employee Z the ability to update and/or delete employee group information, you must make sure that the functional role assigned to Employee Z has employee modification rights.
