  1. Go to ConsoleSettingsPeople and HR.

  2. Find Who approves changes to people's jobs.
  3. Choose HR only, Line manager, then HR, No approval or, on Enterprise, Custom chain.
  4. Select Save. New changes follow it from now; ones already waiting keep their steps.

Good to Know

  • HR only is the default.
  • With No approval, a change stands as soon as it's asked for and applies on its date. HR is told.
  • A line manager never approves a change to a job alone. HR, or a named person, always has the last word.
  • Changes HR makes themselves apply on their date unless they choose to send them for approval.

If Something Goes Wrong

  • You can't change it. Only HR, Owners and Admins for the whole organisation change who approves changes to jobs.
  • Custom chain asks you to see plans. Custom chains come with Enterprise. Choose one of the others.
