Everhour member types, their roles and permissions

Member types

Team admins can assign their team members 1 of the 2 member types: employee or contractor. This can be done together with assigning a user role when inviting new members to your team:

You will then be able to apply filtering by member type on reports and display the type there by adding the Member Type column.

User roles

There are 5 user roles in Everhour:

1
Owner: initially, owners are those who register an Everhour account. Owners can:
- access the Billing page;
- manage the subscription;
- access the payment receipts;
- delete an account. 
Team ownership can be transferred to any other admin on a team.
2
Admin: full access (except exclusive privileges of the team owner). Admins can see projects and tasks of all users, regardless of whether they are assigned to the project or not. This is due to the fact that any admin should see the same totals in reports and be able to configure project billing and budgeting. You can turn off some of privileges to lower the access level of an admin (see below).
3
Member: ordinary employee. Members can report time into projects and tasks they are assigned to. They can see other team members and their contributions to common projects. Members do not have access to money-related information. 
4
Supervisor: intermediate role between admin and member. Supervisors can see, add or edit the time for other users, but only in common projects. Supervisors do not see a member until they have an intersection on projects. Like members, supervisors do not have access to money-related information. 
5
Limited Member: can add, edit and see  only personal time and expenses.

Customise admin permissions

This option is available on Team plan only. You can see what parts of Everhour can be locked for admins to access. They will not see the locked information in reports, dashboards and some of pages will be hidden from their eyes. This is possible to give partial access through a "read only" rights, where an admin sees functionality, but does not have rights to edit it.

Apart from these limit options, an admin with limited access will not be able:

  1. Invite new users with an admin role.
  2. Downgrade, delete and deactivate other admins.
  3. Upgrade other users to admins. 
  4. Access the "Apps" page under Settings.
