Roles and access

💡 The Salary overview is only available to users with a system role with Salary management access. This is separate from the user role that controls access to salary on individual employee profiles.

What is the Salary overview?

The Salary overview gives you a complete list of all active employees in your organisation and their current salary — all in one place. It is the quickest way to get a full picture of your organisation's salary data, add salaries for the first time, or make adjustments outside of a formal revision process.

You can find the Salary overview by going to the Salary module and clicking "Overview".

Navigate the overview

The overview shows a list of all active employees with the following information:

• Name and job title
• Employment percentage and a link to "See salary development"
• Seniority
• Current salary (amount and currency)
• Effective period (from and to date)

Click the three dots next to an employee to:

• Go to [name]'s profile — opens the employee's full profile
• Go to [name]'s salary — opens the employee's salary page where you can add, edit, and view salary history

⚠️ The overview shows one salary per employee,  the salary that is active on the selected date. If an employee has no salary registered, their salary field will be empty.

Filter the salary list

You can filter the salary list to narrow down which employees are shown.

1. Go to the Salary module and click "Overview"

2. Use the filters at the top of the list to filter by:
