Employee Permissions

To ensure all employees have the same access and permissions, you need to create a unified template and then:

  1. Apply it to all existing employees.

  2. Set it as the default template — so it automatically applies to all new employees.


Step-by-step guide for the administrator:

  1. Go to the Clockster Admin Panel.

  2. Open the Employees section, then select Permissions in the top menu.

  3. Click on Templates.

  4. Click the + Add New Template button.

In the opened window:

  • Select the Role: Employee

  • Enter a template name that clearly indicates its purpose (for example, “Basic Access”)

Permission settings:

Check the boxes for the features that employees should have access to in the mobile app, for example:

  • View Colleagues List
    Employees will be able to see the full names, contact details, and job titles of their colleagues.

  • Access to Documents
    Employees can upload and delete their personal documents from their phone gallery.

  • Access to Requests
    Allows employees to submit various requests — for leave, sick days, financial issues, or schedule changes.

  • View Announcements
    Employees will be able to view company news and announcements.

  • Clock-in/Clock-out Permission in Mobile App
    Enables employees to record their attendance via the mobile app.

  • View List of Birthdays

  • Access to Ratings and Statistics

  • Access to Payroll
    Employees can view approved payslips.

  • Access to Tasks
    Employees can see the tasks assigned by managers, complete them, and submit reports.

  • View Checklists

  • Single Device Mode

If the “Single smartphone mode” option is enabled, an employee can only use their account on one device (phone).

How it works:

  • When logging into Clockster from a new device, the system automatically unlinks the previous one.

  • Attempting to use the same login credentials on multiple devices at once will be blocked.

  • This ensures that attendance and actions are performed by the actual employee, not someone else.

When it’s useful:

  • To prevent employees from sharing their shifts or accounts with colleagues.

  • For additional security and accurate time tracking.


After completing the setup, save the template. Then:

  • Apply it manually to all current employees.

  • Set it as the default template for employees, so it automatically applies to all new users.


Done!
Now all employees will have consistent and correctly configured permissions — without any extra manual work.
