Business User, Finance User, and Employee User
Each User must be assigned a User Profile with an appropriate User type. This determines their permissions in the system.
A Profile can have a User type of:
- Business User: This User type has access to a selection of the available permissions. You can subtract permissions, but you cannot add more permissions than the Business User Type allows.
- Finance User: This User type has access to the complete functionality of the system. You can add or subtract permissions as desired.
- Employee Users: This User type can only submit expenses in an entity and has no system login/profiles in any entity or at group level.
