Description: Access levels and permissions are based on permissions with Lighthouse Business Manager. Within Workforce, you can set which departments a manager has privileges for. Learn how to do this below.

Assigning Department Access to Managers
The first step in setting up manager access for a user is selecting the department/s you would like them to access.
Managers must have the Manage schedule permission to create, edit, and publish shifts for a department. Managers without this permission set will only have read-only access to schedules.
Tip: Each individual user can choose which schedules they would like to be notified about via their Notification Preferences.
Review Manager Permissions
In addition to schedule management, managers can also be given additional permissions to perform extra functions within the company account.
Note: These permissions must be assigned in Lighthouse Business Manager, which are reflected in Workforce.
