This article will go through Breathe from a line manager's point of view, their permissions and a guide to share with your line managers.

This is what a Line Manager will see on their Dashboard...

Please note: Line manager's permissions are set by the HR User so some of these options may not appear.

Within Breathe you can choose what line managers can view, manage or delete their employee's profiles.

You will find the line manager permissions under Configure > Settings > Permissions and Approvals > Change what line managers can see and do 

You can allow your managers to view, edit/manage and delete information

Two-tier/level view of staff

You can tick the box, so line managers can see not only their employees but also the next level down. This will mean that they have exactly the same permissions as the direct Line Manager. However, notifications will only go to the direct Line Manager.

e.g:

LINE MANAGER 1

|

USER - USER - USER - LINE MANAGER 2 - USER - USER - USER

|

USER - USER - USER - USER - USER - USER - USER - USER - USER - USER

Any users below these two tiers will not be visible.

Please note: If you need managers to see more than one level you will need to give them HR Permissions

Bank details

You can also tick the second box, so line managers can see their employees bank details on their profile.

Just a few quick tips:

In order for Line Managers to add employee documents to the employee profile, you will need to tick 'manage' profile.

For Line Managers to manage TOIL, you will need to tick 'manage' adjustments.

Find below a line manager guide that will give you an over of Breathe from a line managers point of view and you can share this with your line managers.
