Manage Sage 50 HR Security
Description

Sage 50 HR security has three major components:

  • Employee groups - This allows you to assign an employee record to a particular group. You can then use this to control which employee records a Sage 50 HR user can access.
  • User groups - Define the actions that users can carry out and the employee groups that they can work with.
  • Software access.

You need to appoint an administrator to look after the security of Sage 50 HR. The administrator logs on as Manager and secures Sage 50 HR with a password.
