Global Managers

Global Managers

 

An employee can be assigned a Manager within an employer in BrightPay. The Manager will have permission to view the employees they are assigned to on the Manager's portal, view employees' personal details, annual leave entitlement, employer calendar, enter in leave or cancel leave for an employee and approve/decline employee requests for these employees.

 

1. All employees in an employer can be assigned a 'Global Manager'.

a) To do this please go to > Employer > Edit Employer Details > 'Employee Portal' tab.

b) Select '+ Global Manager' under the 'Global Managers' heading on the left.

 

 

c) You can now assign a manager or multiple managers to all employees in this employer. 

 

The Manager can be of of three types:

  • Another employee of the same employer
  • A member of the Organisation
  • Someone outside of the Organisation that is neither an employee of the employer or a member of the organisation

 

 

d) Select the Manager and click 'Ok'.

e) Select 'Save'


Repeat the process to add additional managers.
