Payroll accountant role (P) is mandatory for a user who calculates salaries. It is recommended that the payroll accountant has "All rights" as their payroll profile. The payroll accountant also needs the Purchase invoices and salaries payer  right from the sales and accounts payable rights to be able to pay salaries. The payroll-specific rights primarily determine which Netvisor pages the user has read or edit rights to. Without specific rights, the P-role itself is useless, as the role complements the given specific rights.

Setting the role

Setting the role is done from Company menu (company name) > Users and access rights > Users and roles > click on the user's name > Pay, working hours and travel

The payroll accountant role (P) can be given either by the accounting office administrator (TPK) or the administrator visible on the front page of the company's Netvisor environment management, who also has the User administrator role (KH). The role cannot be given to oneself. If necessary, the role can also be set by Netvisor experts.

Employee management

Without the payroll accountant role, the user sees employees only according to company hierarchy rights. In other words, the user sees employees who belong to the hierarchy level to which the user themselves has factual verification or approval rights.

With the payroll accountant role (P), the user sees all employees regardless of their hierarchy rights. The Personal details handler role (HH) follows hierarchy rights. Please note that specific rights are needed for employee management, just having the P or HH role is not enough. Detailed instructions on the necessary specific rights for employee management are provided on a separate page.
