Hi there, @Makau.

 

Currently, custom roles don't support time tracking permissions, which means you can't create a custom role that lets employees edit their own time entries.

 

You can grant your user the Standard all-access permission, which allows your user to edit their own time entries, run employee reports, and generate Time Activities by Customer Detail reports to send to your customers.

 

To set it up:

 

  1. Go to Settings, then select Manage users.
  2. Choose the user you want to edit.
  3. Click Edit, and in the Roles drop-down, choose Standard all-access.
  4. Select Done to save.
