Groups allow to reflect the hierarchy at the company by assigning employees to the groups which are managed by their supervisor, or group manager.
This manager will be able to approve their time off requests and their timesheets.
Step 1: Click “Groups” -> “Create new group”
Step 2: Fill in the group name, choose a group manager and the employees associated with this manager.
In order for this manager to see the employees, the type should be “Security”
Note that the manager’s role must be “Group manager” in the user card

- Alerts – Assign a group to an alert
- Contracts – Assign a group to a contract
- Tasks – Assign a group to a task
