Assigning users to a group allows you to keep your employees organized, but it also enables you to assign a Manager so they can easily supervise their crew and allow your employees to see where their team is currently working.
Having groups saves admins and managers time by being able to assign jobs & create schedules for an entire group of workers in specific departments.
Follow these steps to create a group:
- Log into the web portal and click on Users.
- Click on the orange Add Group button in the upper right corner.
- Name your group, and then assign users to the group by using the search box and checking the boxes to the left of each user.
- Click Save Group.
- When a manager and employee are assigned to the same group, the manager can view when the employee is clocked in and the employee's time, mileage & shifts. The employee has no access to any of the manager's whereabouts, time, mileage, or shifts.
- When the permission View Who's Working is turned on for an employee, they will be able to see the locations of those employees & managers assigned to the same group as them.
- Only Admins can add, edit, and delete groups.
- Learn more about roles and permissions in Timeero.
