The Employee Detail Page
The employee detail page (the employee's profile) brings together everything about one person: who they are, who they report to, and tabs for their attendance, leave, tasks, documents, pay and more. This article explains the header and every tab.
How to open it
- In the sidebar, open HR → Employees.
- Click the employee's name in the list.
You can also click an employee's name wherever it appears as a link, for example in a project's Members tab. To see your own profile, open it from your profile menu or click your own name.
Who can open a profile: everyone can open their own profile. To open other people's profiles your role needs access to the Employees menu. Deactivated employees can only be opened by admins, and contacts cannot open employee profiles. How much of the profile you see depends on your View Employees permission; with limited access you see the name, job details and a reduced set of tabs. See Permissions explained.
The header
The header stays at the top on every tab.
| Part | What it shows |
|---|---|
| Photo and name | The employee's picture (or initials) and name, with their salutation. |
| Active / Inactive | The employee's status. |
| Role | The employee's role, for example Employee or Manager. |
| Designation and Department | Shown under the name. See Designations and Departments. |
| Employee ID | The employee's ID. |

| Last login at | When they last logged in, or "Never". |
The Employees link above the name takes you back to the employee list.
Buttons
- Message — opens a chat with the employee. Shown when the Messages module is on and it is not your own profile.
- Edit — opens the edit panel. Shown if your Edit Employees permission is All, or Added and you added this employee.
- More actions (the … button) — when the Onboarding module is on, this holds Start Onboarding or Start Offboarding, depending on the employee's stage and your onboarding permissions.
The tabs
Tabs appear in the order below. Some tabs group related pages; when you open one, links underneath the tab strip let you switch between its pages (for example Leaves and Leaves Quota).
Switching tabs with the keyboard
Press P, then the tab's letter. For example, P then A opens Attendance, and P then L opens Leaves. Hover over a tab to see its letter. The shortcut does nothing while you are typing in a field. (E on its own opens Edit.)

Tips
- Your own profile always opens. Your own documents and bank information are always visible to you, even if you cannot see other people's.
- Bookmark a tab. Every tab has its own web address, so you can save or share a direct link, for example to someone's Leaves Quota.
- Feature not in your plan? If you open the Payslips, Assets or Performance page and the module is not in your company's plan, you see a short message instead. Admins can upgrade the plan; employees should ask their company admin.
- Missing a tab or button? It is hidden by your role's permissions or by a module that is turned off. Ask your company admin.
