A key feature of the EmployeeConnect solution is the flexibility to define the reports, forms, content, and processes that are accessible by a user . When the user logs on, they are assigned access rights based on roles and group membership. For example, the ability to submit a form is available only to management level employees in the finance department, based on the employees' reporting heirarchy and org unit assignment.

Role Based Access also allows you to apply security configuration to an individual item on a form or report object.  For example, a Salary field may be hidden for an Employee, visible to a Manager, but updateable to an HR Administrator . Another eaxample could be where a staff turnover report where HR manager views all the data in the organisation, first line managers view their own department�s data and senior executives can view their entire organisation with drill-down capability to see everyone throughout their organisation tree structure. It may even mean that your organisation can have a different performance appraisal structure for different parts of the organisation.
