Security Groups

Subscribe-HR comes with 5 Security Groups already defined to get you started. These Security Settings are:

• System Administrator
• Developers
• Employee Self-Service
• Line-Manager Self-Service
• Directors and Executive Management

Please note that if there are multiple Security Groups assigned to a User, they will be able to Flick between these groups using a Function, located on the top left of the user interface. See Also Multiple Security Groups Assigned to a User.

If you cannot see the Maintenance TAB or the Groups Folder, you may not have the correct permissions to perform Security Group changes.

Security Groups Explained

All users are assigned to one or more Security Groups. Security Groups define the users permissions within the system (this is what data the user can see and what functions and access the user has over changing the data).
User permissions can be set for View, Update, Create and Delete. The additional options are: View (By Manager), Update (By Manager), Create (By Manager), Delete (By Manager). These options relate to how the manager can interact with their teams records. The Orange X's signify that the settings and standard (Hard Coded) to ensure that Employee and Manager interaction can be perform easily and logically.
To Select the Option that you wish to assign to the Group, Click the Checkbox associated to the option required.
Example: Employee Training Records (View, Update). Employee (View). Employee Property (View). Once finished, click [Save] button.

    Example: Removing a check from the Delete column adjacent to the Employee folder will cause any user that has this Security Group singularly assigned to not be able to delete Employee's.

Multiple Security Groups can be assigned to users. If multiple Groups have been assigned to a user, they can flick between these Groups by using the Change Identity or Group Flicker function located at the top left of the user interface. By assigning multiple Groups to a User, you can allow them to work using these different roles.
