Permission reference
Every permission in Hubtoll, grouped by area, with the exact actions each one unlocks — down to the smallest task. Use it to decide precisely what to grant each colleague.
How to read this
A permission is a single capability you assign to a person (or bundle into a role). This page lists every permission Hubtoll has, grouped by area, and spells out the concrete actions each one unlocks.
A few patterns make the whole list easy to scan:
| Pattern | What it means |
|---|---|
| Editor | Create, update and delete within that area. An editor always includes the matching read-only view. |
| Read-only | See that area company-wide, change nothing. |
| Initiator | Start or submit something (raise a request, log an expense, issue a document). |
| Workflow editor / read-only | Configure — or just view — that area's approval workflow. |
| Sub-scopes | Some areas split the editor into narrower pieces (e.g. staff, classifications, office locations). The area's top-level Editor includes all of them. |
Approving is an assignment, not a permission. You won't find an "approver" permission here. Approval workflows route each step to specific people; whoever a step is routed to can act on it — no module permission required. See approval workflows.
Self-service needs no permission. Applying for leave, filling a timesheet, taking a course, viewing your own record, or acting on an approval routed to you all work for any licensed member — the permissions below are for administering each area.
Licence & access gates
These aren't permissions you assign — they're automatic checks Hubtoll applies underneath every permission. They're listed so the full access picture is clear.
| Gate | What it checks |
|---|---|
| CORPORATE_VERIFICATION | Not an assignable permission — a built-in check that you belong to the company you're acting in. Every self-service action (applying for leave, submitting a timesheet, acting on an approval routed to you) requires it and nothing more. |
| HRM_LICENSED | Not assignable — an active Human Resources licence seat. Any change (create/edit/delete) in an HR module requires a live HR licence in addition to the relevant permission below. |
| EDMS_LICENSED | Not assignable — an active Document Management licence. Required to reach any document, folder or sharing action. |
| EDMS_EXPIRED_ALLOWED | Not assignable — marks the view-and-delete actions that stay reachable during the Document Management expired-grace window. |
Company-wide roles
Broad roles that cut across every module. The first three cascade: holding one satisfies the matching kind of permission everywhere, so you rarely need to grant them alongside module permissions.
