Types of User

There are 2 user groups within TimeTac: managers and users. Each has different levels of permissions, different operational workflows and different levels of access to time tracking data.

Users

By default, users are allowed to track their working time and view this working data. They can view statistics and produce reports of their own working hours.

Users can make alterations to their working times, but these must be approved by a manager before taking effect.

If users of Leave Management request an absence, this must also be approved by the responsible manager. Additionally, in the Department Calendar, users can see when other employees within their department will be absent, but they cannot see the type of absence.

Users cannot see the time tracking data of other employees.

Users cannot make any changes to their permissions or to the company account settings. They have limited control over what data they can edit, such as contact information.

Managers

By default, managers have control and access to the time tracking data within their department. They can view statistics and produce reports of their own working hours, as well as the employees within their department.

Managers can make alterations to their own working times without requiring approval, but cannot edit the working times of their employees without the user submitting a change request themselves.

Managers can enter absences without requiring approval.

Managers cannot make any changes to their permissions or to the company account settings. They have limited control over what data they can edit, such as contact information.

In addition to the default manager permissions, those with full employee access can, by default, see the time tracking data for all employees. They can view statistics and produce reports for all employees.

They can make alterations to working times of any employee without approval.

They have access to the User Settings menu options and can make alterations within the User Administration, Departments and Responsibilities menus.
