Configure Grow Custom Role Permissions

A
Written by Adam Kroboth

Custom role Grow permissions allow admins to give specific employees admin-like access to the Grow tool.

There are two types of permissions an admin can set for custom role owners:

  • Company-wide: Permission will apply to all users

  • Targeted: Permissions only apply to the subset of employees that the admin has selected for the role owner. The role member(s) will not have access to the private information of other employees that fall outside of this subset. The role member will have access to view and edit Admin-only fields for employees in the targeted group.

Learn how to configure custom role admin permissions in Set Up Custom Role Admin Permissions.

Targeted permissions

The Targeted permissions allow custom role owners to manage Grow for a subset of employees.

View employee individual development plans

The View employee individual development plans permission allows custom role owners to view the growth areas and career vision exercises for their target group. Employee's growth areas will be read-only and cannot be editable by the role owner.

Permissions include:

Custom role owner view

The custom role owner will have an admin page they can access by clicking Switch to admin. Within the admin page, they will only see the Grow tool.

Example of Grow custom role view. The page is opened to Grow Tracks. On the left-hand admin navigation, the Grow product can be seen along with its three sub-pages tracks, competencies, and settings. The Adoption page can be seen at the top of the navigation.
