Sometimes a need arises to change top manager in Time Tracker. For example, if a person is no longer with an organization, you may want to assign the top manager role to someone else instead.
This is accomplished with the Swap role feature.
It works like this:
Each user in Time Tracker is assigned to a role such as User, Supervisor, Co-manager with a set of access rights, or permissions to the system. Time Tracker roles are described here.
One of such access rights is called swap_roles. By default, it is assigned to Supervisor and higher roles, although access rights assignment to roles is configurable.
Users having swap_roles right can swap roles with someone having a smaller role rank.
How to Swap Roles
Login to Time Tracker as a person to swap role from. Then go to the Users tab. Then click on the pencil icon associated with the account. Time Tracker Users tab
