Access Levels

Your company’s administrator can set different access levels for different employees. We recommend setting employees at the lowest access level necessary to do their job.

Tiaan has three access levels:

  1. Employee. The basic permission level; everyone is an employee. An employee can view and manage their own time entries, but cannot add negative hours or view any information about other employees.
  2. Manager. A manager can view and manage time entries for all the employees in their group. Managers can also enter negative hours, which can be used to correct for mis-estimations in prior payroll periods. Managers can have Tiaan send a ‘password reset’ email to employees.
  3. Administrator. The administrator can view and manage time entries for all employees in the company. They can set the access level of other employees, add or remove employees, and run payroll. They can also update the different groups within the company, and which categories employees can enter hours against.

Updating Access Levels

Only Administrators can update access levels.

To update an employee’s access level:

  1. In the top menu, go to Employer > Permissions.
  2. Find the employee whose access level you want to change in the list.
  3. Click ‘Change’ next to their name.
  4. Select the access level you want them to have, and click ‘Update.’
