This article lists the actions that are exclusive to the Administrator role in Personio. The Administrator role is a preset role with the highest level of access. You should assign the Administrator role only to those responsible for your company's Personio account.

Administrators in Personio have exclusive access to the following:

• Set up approval processes.
• Set up employee roles and permissions.
• Log in as an employee and view their account as they see it.
• Share legacy custom reports.
• Set up the default People List view.
• Monitor all open approvals.
• Track the status of all open signature requests.
• Hide employee cards from the Org chart.

To make an employee an Administrator, add them to the Administrator role. You can also grant Administrator access to an entire role. This gives all employees in that role Administrator-level access. Only Administrators can grant Administrator access to other employees or roles.

To grant a role administrator access:

1. Go to Settings.
2. In the People section, click Roles and permissions.
3. Select the role you want to give administrator access to.
4. Click the three-dots icon on the right side of the screen and select Allow admin access.

Note:
Only users with the Administrator role can access the Roles and permissions section. If you cannot see Roles and permissions in Settings, you don't have Administrator access.
