Edit & Set Manager Permissions

Edit a Scheduling Manager (& Set Their Permissions)

ONLY THE MAIN MANAGER ON EACH ACCOUNT CAN ADD & SET PERMISSIONS FOR MANAGERS – and the MAIN MANAGER CAN EDIT SIGN IN INFORMATION FOR ALL OTHER MANAGERS. 

Each WhenToWork account has one Main Manager (the manager who created and is in charge of the account) and can add any number of additional managers who can be limited in what they can see and do when they sign in. The main manager will find Add/Edit Managers under SETTINGS in the top menu.

Each manager has a unique manager username and password (IN ADDITION TO any username & password they may have to sign in as an employee) and can perform only the functions the Main Manager allows.
