Changing the user context in the Papervee App

What is “Manager Mode”

The Papervee app has two distinct contexts. The initial context is that of an “employee,” which provides the basic functions needed by an employee within the platform. The “employee” context is the default and can be accessed by any user with any role. This context allows the use of basic functions, such as time recording, creating leave requests, and viewing individual work schedules.

Certain users can access the second context, “manager mode.” This context provides additional reports and information that company managers can use for reporting and other human resources activities. Additionally, managers can access approval workflows through this context and thus manage requests from other users.

Who can access “Manager mode”

Manager mode can be accessed by the following types of users:

• The Owner user;
• Users with the role of HR Manager (regardless of permission level);
• Users who are Operational Managers over at least one other employee.

How to activate “Manager mode”

To access or exit manager mode, follow these steps:

1. Click on the “More” menu button or click on your profile picture at the top right of the screen;
   
2. Check (or uncheck) “Manager Mode” in the corresponding section.
