User Access Levels

 

Note: Owners, Admin, Managers, & Regular Users are all available with all of Time Doctor’s Subscription Plans, while Client Login Access is only available with Premium. These access permissions can be configured by both the Owner & Admin.

 

TL;DR

  • Owner: Full access including billing and account deletion.
  • Admin: Manage users, settings, projects, and schedules.
  • Manager: Manage assigned users' work, schedules, and projects.
  • Regular User: Track work; limited editing and reporting based on permissions.
  • Client: Read-only access to specific reports and projects.  

 

Time Doctor provides different access levels to control what users can see and do within the platform. These levels are: Owner, Admin, Manager, Regular User, and Client.

Admins can change access levels in the Settings / Users page.
