This guide will explain what is a User Type and how to change it.
A User Type is generally used to determine what kind of user is that employee. It is commonly mistaken / misunderstood with Access Group, however, the key difference is that an Access Group is used to determine what kind of access an employee can have and it can also be created whereas for a User Type, it's main key difference it that it is used to determine whether that employee is a PAYROLL USER or an EMPLOYEE USER, these two User Types are preset and cannot be created. In summary, a User Type acts as a switch. For Example;
For an employee to be able to process the payroll [Payroll User's function], the User Type and the Access Group must be set to PAYROLL USER, otherwise the employee will not have the proper access right set / given.
Note: Only the Subscriber / Administrator have access to the Administration to change the User Type of an employee.
To change an employee's User Type, go to Administrator above Integration.
Identify the user that you would like to edit the user type, click on the pencil icon to edit the details.
Click on the User Type and select the new desired User Type.
Once done, click on the diskette icon to save the changes made.
