Within your organisation, you may have users that need access to just a specific feature to undertake certain actions, such as reviewing expense claims or seeing who has clocked into work. We know these employees do not need full admin rights but tailored access to suit the needs of their role
The Restricted Access feature allows you to create your own security groups based on what your managers need access to within your payroll platform. You can also use this feature to edit any previously created security groups and delete a record if it is no longer required.
Only a full-access user can grant access to users.
