What can a team leader do?

A team leader has access to all data of the colleagues in their team and can also view the basic profile of all their colleagues. This means that, besides their own employee documents, a team leader can also view the documents of their team. The team leader also has access to features such as leave, absence, hours, and reports. However, a team leader only sees the data that pertains to their team.

These rights are limited; for example, they can only add and review items such as leave requests but cannot delete them. They also do not have access by default to contracts, employment conditions, and company documents.

Additionally, the team leader receives all notifications from the team members (e.g., a new leave request).

Making a colleague a team leader

In the teams overview

You can make a colleague a team leader under the "Colleagues" feature and then the "Teams" button. Here, you will see an overview of all teams, and by clicking the "Edit" button, you can add a team leader.

When you make someone a team leader this way, the team leader will have the default team leader rights. You can further extend these rights via the employee documents.

In the personnel file

In the personnel file of the colleague under "Settings," you can change the user rights and change the role to team leader. Here, besides the default team leader rights, you can also grant additional rights (e.g., documents, contracts, and employment conditions).

The rights only apply to the team members of a team leader; they can never see information from colleagues outside their team.

Team leaders can only view, edit, and add items. Deleting items is never possible; this can only be done by administrators.

Overview of all roles and rights

In the company settings under "User rights," you will find a complete overview of all access rights within your organization. Here, you can see exactly which colleagues have access and who has team leader or administrator rights, and you can directly make changes from here.
