Note : Once you make a role as multiple you need to complete the steps of mapping the attribute and assignment of employees to each domain as explained below. If you do not complete this then the activities / requests in the system will not be assigned to the appropriate employees.

3. Setting multiple role attribute
On the Role Mapping tab you can select the multiple roles and map the attribute you want to use to map it to employees.


Workflows in EazeWork HRMS work only when the process ownership at each stage (except initiation) is unique, i.e. for each stage of process it is known with 100% certainty that who is responsible for the activity. As shown above the division of work among multiple Accountant can be done on the basis of
- Company
- Department
- Department-Company
- Division
- Division-Company
- Employee
- Office Location
Note :
1. Company, Department-Company, Division-Company are available on for multiple company scenario
2. Once this mapping is done for a role it cannot be changed without disabling the multiple role and enabling it again

4. Assigning employees to domain
On Role Mapping tab to assign different work domains to different employees follow the steps given below.
1. Select the role
2. In the table map the employees, before you can map an employee here you will have to assign this role to the employee from Manage Account > Manage Users tab


When you click on Submit you will get a reconfirmation popup.


You can at any point of time change the domain of the mapped users, click on the dropdown and select the new employees. You will get a confirmation message as shown below.


When the mapping is changed all the work related to this role pending with the first user is transferred to the new user.

Note - CEO role can be mapped only on the basis of Company.

5. Deactivation of roles
There are two parts of the process
1. Deactivation of multiple role feature : before you can deactivate the multiple role option you will have to map all the domains to one employee. For example if you have HR Executives mapped by company and you try to deactivate you will get a message as shown below.


If the role is mapped to more than one employee then you will have to also remove the duplicate mapping from Manage Account > Manage Users tab. Once it is done you can try and you will get a confirmation popup as shown below.


2. Deactivation of role completely : if you do not want to use a role anymore you can deselect the checkbox. If the role is in use in any workflow the checkbox will not be enabled and it will be greyed out.
