User roles and permissions
To view and manage your organization’s user roles and permissions, go to the employee directory:

The following Table 1 lists the various user roles and the advanced permissions associated with each role.
Table 1. User roles and permissions
Role | Advanced Permissions |

Note: Managers do not have access to view employee corporate card information, even for employees assigned to the manager. |

*Mark a finance user as approver for entire organization
To have the advanced permissions outlined in the previous table, a finance user must be marked as a “Finance Approver for Entire Organization.” This setting is required in order for finance users to take any corporate card-related actions for their organization, such as modifying cards or seeing payments.
To give a finance user this permission, review how to edit an employee record, and take the following steps:
Locate the employee record you want to change, then select the blue pencil icon at the far-right of the row (see Figure 1). This brings up a pop-up window with several fields of information related to the employee (see Figure 2).
Select the “Advanced Permissions” field.
Select “Finance” from the dropdown checklist.
When you select “Finance”, a “Finance Approver for Entire Organization” checkbox appears (see Figure 3). Check the checkbox.
Select “Save” to save your changes.
