Employee Roles & Permissions allow the creation of designated Roles that customize access and Permissions. These Roles, and their access and Permissions, can then be assigned to Employees. Additional permissions can be added later to the Employee when necessary.
It is recommended that each Employee Role be given the minimum Permissions necessary to operate the system, as changes to Permissions for individual Employees will only allow for additional Permissions. Access and Permissions granted to an Employee based on their set Employee Role cannot be removed for individual Employees.
