Add Permissions to a User Role in Settings

Add Permissions to a User Role in Settings

Adding permissions to a user role enables you to configure what various users can view and modify. Example: if you wanted to add the ability to bulk submit saved timesheets to a timekeeper role, you would type
time.bulk.submit
in the
Permissions
box next to the role. 
Note that only Administrator users have the ability to adjust permissions. 
  1. From the header, select
    More
    Company Settings
    .
  2. From the
    Security
    section, click 
    Security Settings.
  3. Click the
    Roles
    tab.
  4. Click the pencil icon next to the role that you wish to add a permission to.
  5. Enter the permission name into the
    Permissions
    box and select the permission from the list.
    You can find all permissions and their definitions on the
    Permissions
    tab of the
    Security Roles
    page. Use these definitions to ensure that you're selecting the correct permissions for the role.
  6. After you've added your permissions, click the checkmark icon to save.
