User Types

The first user on any account is an Administrator. Administrator rights cannot be removed from a sole Administrator i.e. a new user must be made an Administrator beforehand.

The core of the system works on a hierarchical model where each User is allocated an Approver and that Approver is responsible for dealing with requests from the User. Any employee who does not have an Approver will have all their leave requests automatically approved.

An overview of the permissions of each type of user are as follows.
