  9. Transfer Assignments will be used only if the company is using tmsKiosk and will only be visible if the Employee WG Restrictions box is checked on the Configuration/Kiosk page.  If the employee will have the ability to transfer on Kiosk and will need individual transfer restrictions, select Add to set up the Transfer Assignments.  If the employee has no restrictions, or a manager restriction set instead, this can be left blank, and the user may click Next.  Employee Transfer Assignments can be set over the top of manager restrictions and will take priority if both are used (Figure 9).  Please note that transfer restrictions can be added/edited at a later time.

  13. If the user is creating an employee with the User Type of Manager or Manager/Employee, they will also need to fill out the Manager Setup area.  Those setup as an Employee will not see this section.  Select the appropriate Profile and User Group from the list provided by clicking on the arrow (Figure 13).

  14. Select the manager’s Access Rights which will determine which employees they will see on Mange User as well on MyTeam, one at a time as applicable by clicking Add (Figure 14).

  15. Use the arrows in each workgroup to assign rights one at a time.  Repeat this process as necessary to add more rights to the Manager (Figure 15).
