Once the order of departments is set, enabling department hierarchy will prevent employees in a lower department from viewing or changing the settings of employees in higher departments.
To Enable the Department Security Hierarchy
1.Go to the Settings> People> Employee Options 
> Departments tab.
2.Review the department order.
|
Important The department with the most security privileges (for example, owners) should be at the top of the list, and the department with the least security privileges (for example, the cleaning crew) should be at the bottom. |
3.To move a department, click it, and then click the arrows at the bottom of the screen. 
4.Click the Setup tab.
5.Select the Enable Department Hierarchy check box.
6.On the Edit menu, click Save Changes. When employees in a lower department are logged in to Store Manager, they will not be able to view or change the security privileges of higher departments, and depending on the privileges granted, may not be able to view information of employees in their own department.
