Assign User Roles

The roles assigned to an employee specify their level of access in Dayforce. Users can only have one active default role at a time.

To assign a role to an employee:

1. Go to People, open the employee profile, and click Security Settings.
2. In the Roles section, click Add.
3. In the User Roles drop-down list, select the role you want to assign.
4. If this is the user's default role (that is, the one that should be selected automatically when they log in to Dayforce), select the Is Default checkbox.
5. Select a start date for the role. The start date is the earliest date that the employee can log in using this role.
6. To limit the role to a specific time period, specify an end date. The end date is the latest date that the employee can log in using this role.
7. Click Save.
