Permissions group permissions

Discover how to effectively manage permissions groups to enhance security and streamline access control in your organization.

Permissions group permissions define who can create, edit, and manage permission groups in Factorial. These permissions control access to one of the most sensitive areas of the platform, ensuring that roles and responsibilities are correctly set up.

By assigning these permissions carefully, administrators can maintain security, avoid misconfigurations, and make sure that access rights are managed consistently across the company.

Employees must be assigned to the corresponding permissions group for time planning permissions to apply.

 

 

How to set up your permissions group permissions

  1. In your sidebar, go to Settings
  2. Click on Permissions
  3. Select the Permissions group permissions
  4. Enable or disable permissions 
  5. Click on Save changes

This permission does not allow you to select the scope; you cannot choose which users a person can perform an action on. It will be active for the whole company (inside this group of permissions)
