<h2 id="overview">Overview</h2>

Employee Profile is accessible from <b>My Profile → Employee Profile</b> in the navigation menu. It shows the logged-in employee's own information — not other employees' records.

The profile header displays the employee name, job title, department, and status.

<h2 id="faq">FAQ</h2>

<b>Can employees see other employees' profiles?</b><br>
No. Employee Profile shows only the logged-in employee's own data. HR administrators use the <a href="#/hr/employees">Employee</a> screen to manage all employees.

<b>How does an employee get login access?</b><br>
An administrator sets login access from the employee record using <b>Set Login Access</b> and assigns a role. See <a href="#/hr/employees?id=login-access">Login Access</a>.

<b>Can employees approve their own leave requests?</b><br>
No. Leave requests require approval by a manager or HR administrator.

<b>Can employees edit job details or salary fields?</b><br>
No. Job details, payroll group, and compensation are maintained by HR on the admin Employee screen.

<b>Where do employees submit expense claims?</b><br>
From Employee Profile self-service — claims follow the expense module approval path configured for your company.

<b>Can Field Sale App users open Employee Profile?</b><br>
Mobile HR self-service covers attendance and leave — full web profile features depend on role and menu access.

<b>Why are some profile fields read-only?</b><br>
Mandatory fields configured in HR Settings may be editable by employee; other fields are HR-only by design.
