If you are not new to the Connecteam platform, then we are sure that you know about Admin permissions. These permissions allow you to set exactly what actions an admin can take regarding a specific feature. Within the Time Clock, you can set specific permissions dictating exactly which actions each Admin can take within the clock, to decide who can view timesheets, edit them, and so on. This gives you complete control and helps avoid unnecessary mistakes.

💡 Tip: If you are new to Connecteam, we recommend you have a look at our article on Admin Permissions to get a better understanding of what admin permissions are, before continuing to the next step.

To set permissions for an admin in the Time Clock feature, enter the Time Clock Lobby go to the admin section in the top panel, and click on the category admins. Here you can add a new admin and set their permissions, or adjust the permissions for an existing admin. Take a look at how this looks below.

💡 Tip: Existing admins in the system will have full permissions by default. Only admins with “Manage admins” permissions (found in the Users tab) can edit permissions.

You can define several types of permissions for adding and editing time clocks.

View - This permission allows admins to view time clocks and timesheets. This is the minimum permission and cannot be removed.

Approve Requests - This permission allows admins to approve pending shift requests or edit requests.

Edit Timesheets - This permission allows admins to edit timesheets in a time clock. This applies to editing or deleting existing shifts, adding new shifts, adding shifts in bulk, and editing conflicts.

Edit Settings - This permission allows admins to edit the time clock name, edit assignments, and edit the Time Clock settings.

Add & Delete Time Clocks - This permission will allow admins to add new time clocks, delete existing time clocks, and restore archived-time clocks.

If an admin tries to perform an action that they do not have permission for they will be notified that permission is required. Take a look at how this looks below.
