You can take a look at the part on Setting up Email section where we already went into great length about this.

WorkForce Management Configurations

Workforce Management is an integrated set of processes that you use to optimize the productivity of your employees. By choosing from the various workforce setting configurations, you can easily increase productivity of your teams and ensure that employees remain on task without expensive human oversight.

Who can Enable/Disable these permissions?

  • The admin team and accounts with manager privileges can both accomplish this.
  • If you have used the manager account, permissions are submitted to the admin for approval, and the admin can only grant if it is functioning at the organisational level.

Note : Only the settings that have been enabled at the organisational level by the software's owner can be enabled or disabled by the manager and admin accounts.
