Users and roles
Who can do what in Timesheets, what counts on your plan, and people with no sign-in.
Go to Settings > Users & roles. Only an Admin can change them.
Your plan counts the people whose time you keep. A Viewer doesn't take a seat.
Roles
| Role | What they can do | Sees rates |
|---|---|---|
| Admin | Everything: time, approvals, rates, invoices, people, settings and the plan | Yes |
| Manager | Their own time, and sees and approves the time of the people they manage | No |
| Finance | Sees all time and rates, makes invoices and sends hours to pay | Yes |
| Employee | Their own timesheet and timer | No |
| Viewer | Sees time and reports. Changes nothing | No |
The business owner is always an Admin. A role in another Ellibo app gives no access to Timesheets.
Invite someone
Enter their email and role under Invite someone, and click Invite. You can cancel an invitation that hasn't been accepted.
To change a role, choose another beside their name. No access removes them from Timesheets.
People with no sign-in
Someone doesn't need a sign-in to have their time kept. Add them under People, and their manager enters their time.
Custom roles
On Business, go to Settings > Custom roles and make roles from these rights:
- keep their own timesheet
- approve for the people they manage
- see the time of the people they manage
- see everyone's time and reports
- rates, invoices and hours to pay
- add and change people
- change Timesheets settings, but not users or the plan
If you delete a custom role, the people in it become Employees.
Plan & Billing
Admins manage the plan under Plan & Billing. See Free trial and plans.
