The different roles on Combo

They enable you to prioritize your organization:

  • Employee is the default role, providing access to published schedules and profiles, as well as absence requests.

  • Manager enables you to supervise a team by creating schedules or managing employee absences. They have access to their default team and they have optional rights.

  • Director is used to manage a facility from its settings to payroll preparation. They are attached to a facility and have control over all the teams within that location.

  • Admin has access to the whole of Combo.

Good to know : There is additional access that can be assigned to just one person per account, the owner role. It's a duplicate of the owner role, with the additional possibility of accessing and modifying owners' profiles. If you need to change the owner, contact us (via the bubble at bottom right)! 💬

Let's recap with a picture ! 📸
