The sidebar in HR Admin > People Role Security shows all of your organization’s user roles. When you select a role in the sidebar, Dayforce shows a list specific to that role in the area to the right. This list is empty by default, and you can add roles that the role selected in the sidebar menu will have limited access to. When you add a role to the list, a feature tree is shown that is specific to the added role.
In this example, the Payroll Manager role is selected in the sidebar. In the area to the right, the Retail Manager role has been added. This means that users with the Payroll Manager role will have limited access to users with the Retail Manager role:
The feature tree shows the following features that are the same as what is shown in System Admin > Roles in the Features tab:
- Application Container
- Mobile
The last feature, Timesheets, appears only if the People role security restricts timesheet (former My HR role security restricts timesheet) checkbox is selected. This checkbox is located in System Admin > Client Properties in the Properties tab, in the Timesheet section. Timesheets has a unique role feature called Pay Information. Select this checkbox to grant roles access to pay information in Timesheets and Manager Timesheet.
When the Pay Information checkbox is selected, Dayforce limits access to only some pay information in Timesheets. For example, a manager can view time-based pay adjustment values (that is, hours) in these features for supported roles, but Dayforce restricts the manager from viewing amount-based pay adjustment values (that is, monetary values).
All of the features in the feature tree are unassigned by default. If you leave all of the features unassigned, users with the role selected in the sidebar can’t access any of those features for users with the role selected above the feature tree. Users with that role aren’t shown in search results in the following areas of Dayforce:
- The People List screen in People.
- Note: To enable users to search for users with that role in the People List screen, you must assign the People List feature under Application Container > People in the Features tab of System Admin > Roles.
- The Team section of Home.
- Global Search
If needed, you can assign some of the features in the feature tree that you want the selected role to have access to. However, assigning features in HR Admin > People Role Security won’t make them available to the selected role if they aren’t assigned access to them in the Features tab of System Admin > Roles.
