In Weplanify, the **What they can do** section of the **Access** tab sets, module by module, what a manager can do for the people of their groups.

![What they can do: Manage for Planning, Time clock, Absences, Employees and Documents, None for the others](https://firebasestorage.googleapis.com/v0/b/weplanify/o/docs%2Fdemarrage%2Fmaj-2026-09-28%2Fdm-acces-modules-08530ea7.webp?alt=media&token=03ab9334-2c35-44ae-84a7-d73d6815e9d5)

## Steps

1. Open the [employee record](https://weplanify.io/docs/employes.fiche?lang=en), **Access** tab, and choose the **Manager** role.
2. For each module, choose **None**, **View** (consult) or **Manage** (create, edit, approve).
3. Click **Save settings**.

## The modules

- **Planning**, **Time clock** (time entries, lateness, day labourers), **Absences**, **Employees**, **Documents**, **Forms**.
- **Groups**, **Configuration** (automations) and company **Settings**.

## Good to know

- A module set to None disappears from the manager's menu; they keep access to their own data.
- Payroll is not in this list: it is reserved for administrators with [payroll access](https://weplanify.io/docs/employes.acces?lang=en).
