NextGen or Classic
The Classic version is the name given to the previous look and feel of the system. Important to note, both NextGen and Classic point to the same database. No data migration is therefore applicable.

Overview
To implement Manager Self Service, a MSS Security Role should be created to specify the screens and permissions the managers should have access to.

Once the Security Role has been saved, you will need to specify the permissions by selecting

Accessing Manager Self Service
Important Comment
Linking reporting lines
For Manager Self Service to function effectively, employees’ reporting lines need to be linked correctly on the Employee Position Screen.
One MSS Security Role per Company will be Automatically Assigned
If the indicator,
is this role a manager self service role? is selected, the system will automatically assign all employees to the MSS Security Role when they register for Employee Self Service. A company can only have one specified MSS Security Role.
