There 3 default system permissions on your account:

  • Account Owner
    This system permission has FULL access to everything on the account, including deleting items, attendance, and payroll.
  • Payroll Administrator
    Similar to “account owner” but Payroll Administrators are limited in their ability to delete payroll and company data.
