Why does the system redirect a company level user to their ESS profile when they attempt to access their employee record?
When a company level user attempts to access their employee record as an admin user, the system will redirect them to their ESS profile if they do not have access to edit their own profile.
To ensure that company level users can edit their own employee record, the below setting may be enabled.
Navigate > Configuration > Security > Security > Security Settings
Note!
This setting will apply to all company level users.
