Roles

There are standard Roles that grant access to the Self Scheduling features. These roles can be assigned to employees either through Organization Unit > Roles or individually through the Employee record > Roles.

Standard roles cannot be modified; however, additional custom roles can be created (User Defined) or copied (Replicated) from existing standard roles and modified to grant access to this feature. For more information on creating new roles, or replicating and modifying existing roles, see Configuration > System > Roles.

Note  

Since the custom roles may be the ones preferred by your corporation, the roles are not listed in this document.

For more information on creating new roles see:
