Getting Started with Employees
Now that your application has been installed, the following steps may be useful in getting the application ready for use.
The application usually opens in the Services area. In the navigation pane to the left, at the bottom, click on the Services button and then switch to the Settings area.
Users
Set up individual Users and select the Security Roles that will be applicable to each User.
Standard roles include the following:
-
- Admin – this role has advanced ability to modify records, users, and system behavior
- User – this role provides access to the key functions such as creating, editing, and deleting records
- Read-Only – a more restrictive role which limits users to viewing records
You can also assign a User to be the “Manager” (supervisor) for each User, to match your company organizational structure.
Please refer to User Management to review the procedure for setting up Users.
Map Config
To enable the mapping to work correctly, provide the Azure map key and set the initial zoom level. We recommend setting a zoom level value of 2 to start with (this is the default setting; the range of acceptable values is 1-9).
