In the Time & Attendance module, security groups are used to control who can view and edit employee records. Employees and users have a different relationship to security groups. The following explains the difference:

• Employees are assigned to a security group. This means they are members of the security group, but they cannot view the records of other employees.

• Users are assigned access to a security group. This means they can view the employees who are members of security groups to which they have been given access. However, giving a user access does not make the user a member of the security group.

As a practitioner, you can perform the following tasks related to security groups:

• Create security groups

• Assign employees to security groups

• Assign user access to security groups

• Edit security group assignments

• Remove employees from security groups

• Remove user access to security groups

• Delete security groups

• View Security Group Reports
