Who can do what in Remote Teams HRMS

Review who enters, reads and decides people, hiring and pay records.

How permissions work

Start with record ownership

Give each person access to the employee, request or run they maintain.

Check the decision separately

A visible approval status does not decide who should approve a particular case; name that person during setup.

Rehearse sensitive access

Pay, benefits and performance require careful review with the actual users who will work in the app.
