# About Employees

Last modified February 19, 2026

> In Visma Net, you an maintain the list of employees, set up their access rights in the system to, for example, to register time cards and expense claims.


Each employee has a personal employee account with groups of settings.

When you create a new employee in the [Employees (EP203000)](https://docs.vismasoftware.no/visma-net-erp/help/organisation-structure/organisation-structure-windows/employees-ep203000/index.md) window, you specify an employee class and then the system fills in many of the details with the default values provided by the class. On the **User info** tab, a system administrator can view and edit information about the user account, create a new user account if none exists, activate, enable, disable, or unlock the user account, assign roles to the existing user, and manage the user's password.

On the **Employment history** tab you can maintain information about the employee's history of employment in the company.

On the **Financial settings** tab you can specify the accounts involved in the recording of employee compensation and payments, the employee's VAT zone, and the payment method to be used by default for compensation payments.

The requirements for the hourly rates of the employee are specified on the **Employee cost** tab.

The non-stock item of the **Labour** type used as a source of expense accounts for transactions associated with projects or contracts. You can use the **Labour item overrides** tab to define the relationship between an earning type and a labour item.
