Control what staff can see in the wall chart

By default, all users can see everyone when they view the Wall Chart, but it is possible to control this if needed.

Controlling access by the department

In the Settings > Departments page, you can specify what access people in each department should have.

Click the department you would like to modify, and view the information in the field “People in this department can see”.

It is possible to select one or more values for this. Once you are finished, Save the changes.

The options are:

  • Everyone — this is the default value and means that staff in this department can see everyone on the wall chart.
  • Limited — Selecting this means that people in this department can only see themselves and no one else (unless they're an approver).
  • Selected departments — Select which departments can be viewed by people in this department.

Controlling access by individual employee

You may override what is set at the department level by setting access for individual employees in the Settings > Employees page. Open the “Permissions” tab, and make sure you untick “Use default”.

After making changes, Save the changes.

Additional notes

  • You can never restrict visibility too much
    • Employees are always able to view their own data in the My Year and Wall Chart.
    • Approvers are always able to view their direct reports (even if they're in different departments)
    • Admins are always able to view everybody
  • You will not be able to use the iCal calendar feeds or Slack App for a department if you do not have access to that department.
