Once an employer assigns an agent access to their account, the agent can then assign internal staff members' access to certain information and specific tasks related to the employer's account. This process, known as assigning user roles, is a way for agents to manage the access their internal staff have to private information.
Types and Definitions of Roles Available
- Agent User - View and update access to Agent information and Employer Information as determined by the access given to the Agent by the Employer.
- System Administrator - Creates users and assigns roles, authority, and account access.
