# View and update employee profiles

> Find an employee’s Overview and Details, learn which other tabs require access, and update values your role permits.

An employee profile brings together a person's details and related records. The tabs you can see depend on whether it is your profile, you manage that person, or you have administrator access.

## Find the person

Open **People** and select an employee. **Overview** is the landing tab and gives a quick summary. **Details** shows profile attributes and employment information visible to you. Use the edit controls in a field or section only when your role permits a change, then check the saved value.

## Other profile tabs

A person, their manager, and administrators can see additional tabs according to their permissions: **Documents**, **Salary**, **Time Off**, **Attendance**, **Expenses**, and **Forms**. A colleague viewing someone else's profile generally sees **Overview** and **Details**. A deep link to a restricted tab can show a no-access message even when the person's Overview is available.

If a document, form, policy, or schedule is missing, first check that you are on the intended employee record. Then ask an authorised manager or administrator to inspect the relevant assignment. Do not infer that an empty tab means the entire company has no documents or policies.
