How do I change an Employee's Manager?

Please note: If you use the ADP Connector or a People API you can reassign Managers from within your HRMS tool and these changes will be reflected in WorkCompass.

Who can change an Employee's Manager

Only Admins can change an Employee’s Manager.

If you have Employee authorization and need to be reassigned to another Manager, or if you have Manager authorization and need to reassign one of your direct reports, we recommend getting in touch with one of your organization's Admins.
