restrict view for onboarding employees

Hello Folks,I've created an onboarding form that allows candidates to fill in required details like payroll and personal information before joining. It also currently gives them access to view all employees in the company.Is there a way to restrict their access so they can only see the form until they officially join, and then grant them full access afterward?

Configuring manager access to only see the absence types their direct reports are eligible for

Hi,  We operate across a few countries - and so we have created Absence Types for each country (so Uk has holiday, sick etc, Germany has holiday, sick etc).  When employees log in - they can only see the absence types of their country. However, when a manager logs in and view their direct reporting lines absence profile - they see the FULL list of absence types there rather than just what their employee is entitled to.  We have a manager access rights role set up - where the access rights say they can view their own reporting line clicked on for all of the absence types - but it needs an additional layer to say - only view the absence type if the employee is entitled to it. Not sure how to do this?

Workflow: Time tracking Approval

Dear Community,I’m experiencing issues with time tracking approvals since the process was moved to workflows. Unfortunately, the approval settings didn’t migrate automatically, so I had to create the workflow manually.I followed the setup exactly as described in this guide: 🔗 Set up attendance approvals in AutomationsHowever, the system is still showing violations for the team manager. I’ve double-checked the work schedule and the employee’s time entries — everything seems to comply with our internal policy.What’s also confusing is that when I click on the alerts, it doesn’t show me what kind of violations or issues they are. So I’m not sure what exactly needs to be fixed.Is there something I might be missing? Any help would be greatly appreciated!Best regards,Yildiz

Secondary supervisors & access to cycles

Hello Community, I have a question so burning, I decided to sign up and raise it here, hopefully I can reach someone who has the same/similar concerns and we can brainstorm for a solution, as I am running out of ideas for workarounds. We have quite some teams with two equal supervisors, and we differentiate between them as:“Supervisor” - the main system attributeand “Co-Supervisor” - for this field, we, until now, used an open text field just to enter the name, but now, with the secondary supervisor function, I’m more than excited to give Co-Supervisors a better user experience.As I was setting up the access rights, aka an Employee Role, for the newly added Co-Supervisor field, I quickly realised the accesses under Performance & Development cannot be granted based on the reporting line / “dotted line”. My options thus are, if I understand well:Option 1: do not grant access here, and rely on the default setting: every supervisor gets access to their direct reports’ assigned cycles O

Possibility to filter onboarding tasks so that users only see those specifically assigned to their role

Hi all,I wanted to ask whether it is possible to filter onboarding tasks so that users only see those specifically assigned to their role? For example, if an employee is assigned the 'IT support' role, they should only see onboarding tasks relevant to that role and not tasks assigned to other roles like 'Direct manager' or 'HR Manager'?We encounter an issue, when even though we've restricted access to the Employee's Documents section for certain roles (for example IT support), these people can still view uploaded employee's documents if it is one of the tasks in the onboarding process for other roles. So, they can open the section where documents are uploaded and read them, although they should not have the access. Hope you can help me :)Regards.

Configuring Manager Access in Personio: Viewing Assigned Team Members and Managing Calendars

Hi Personio Community,I need assistance setting up access rights for a manager in Personio.

Multiple supervisors and calendar access rights

Dear Community, we have a Team that has two Supervisors, one of them disciplinary and one of them functional. For now, the disciplinary one is submitted as “Supervisor” for the Team in Personio. The functional one can not see the vacation and other leaves of their reports and we’re trying to find a workaround to change that. We’re aware that it is currently not possible to assign two Supervisors to one person, is there any other way we can give the functional supervisor access to only their reports? We thought about using an attribute, but we don’t really want to introduce one only for this use case. Do you have any best practices or similiar cases and how do you treat them? Thanks for your input and best!

Personio roles and vacation calendars

Hello Voyage Community! We currently have a lot of different roles for all our different offices/locations. We want to merge as many of them as possible and are in the process of revising them. The problem we're facing is access rights to the different calendars. For each country we have a different holiday/absence calendar, which is why we had so many roles before, as employees should only see the number of absence calendars they need, not all of them.  Is there a way we can set up the roles so that they can only see the absence calendar associated with their location? This would be particularly important for our supervisor role, we would like to have a general role for all supervisors, where they are only able to see their reports and the absence calendars associated with those reports. But currently a general supervisor role could see all absence calendars for their reports, whether they're assigned to the employee or not. Thanks and have a great day :)

Limited custom reports access

Hi, we have someone in our company who needs access to the ‘reports’ function for certain areas of their job (allergens, absences, etc.), but they shouldn’t be allowed to see other people’s salaries. Is there any way for specific reports to be hidden from general ‘reports’ view, or for limited access to the reports tab?

Employee role - Access rights - Create based on position

Hallo zusammen,  ich möchte für einen Mitarbeiter eine Mitarbeiterrolle erstellen, wo ich unter den Zugriffsrechten unter Abwesenheit - Urlaub und Gleittage in der Rubrik Anzeigen auf individuell gehe und unter Bedingung - Position Ist Techniker eingebe und noch zwei andere Positionsbezeichnungen und dann kann der MA nicht die Abwesenheit ansehen. Wenn ich nur eine Position hinterlege funktioniert es!

5 year work anniversary

Hi all,I have added a reminder for a 5-year work anniversary according to the instructions in the help center. 1826 days = 5*365+1 days. Right now I am doubting if this reminder comes in time to actually be able to arrange the gifts for the work anniversary. Should I just lower the number of days with for example 21 days to be able to receive it three weeks in advance? And if I do this, would the reminder clearly mention the hire date?Thanks for sharing your advice.Best,Marjolein

overtime approval vs. compensation conversion

Hi there, I have set up Personio so that any overtime (in our case time off in lieu) needs approval by the supervisor. However, if I limit the access rights in this respect, it also takes away the employee’s right to convert the overtime that has been approved into compensation time. Is there any way around this? What I would ideally see is that the employee needs approval for the overtime, but once approval is given, they themselves can convert the approved overtime into compensation time.It makes no sense in my eyes to have this feature removed just because overtime requires approval, as when the overtime has been granted, the conversion into compensation should be able to be done by the employee independently. Otherwise the workload falls onto the administrator.

On- and Off-boarding access rights

Hey dear community, I’ve tried to look for an answer, but haven’t found any. Our use case is the following: We would like to give a new employee access to Personio, so that they are able to upload all necessary documents and fill out their profile. However, giving them access to Personio before the start date allows them to see all the employees and org chart with names and other data and we would like to avoid it before the start date. I was trying to limit access rights for “All employees” role, however it didn’t work out. The new started can still click on the “Employee” tab and see everybody in the organisation. The same with off-boarding. Is there a way to change it?  Thank you in advance!Svetlana
