Role in TimeRex

Understand the six team roles in TimeRex, whether each role uses a license, and which operations each role can perform.

There are six team member roles: Owner, Admin, Member, Light Member, Administrative Assistant, and Assistant.

Owner, Admin, Member, and Light Member

  • These roles consume licenses, so you need one purchased license for each Owner, Admin, Member, and Light Member.

  • These users can be selected as participants in calendars, Instant Scheduling, and Group polls, allowing their availability to be considered when scheduling.

Administrative Assistant and Assistant

  • These roles do not consume licenses, so you can invite them to the team regardless of the number of licenses in your contract.

  • These users cannot be selected as participants in calendars, Instant Scheduling, or Group polls, so their availability cannot be considered when scheduling.

  • Although Administrative Assistant and Assistant roles do not consume licenses, a Google Account or Microsoft account is required to create a TimeRex account.

    For supported account types, see List of accounts that can be signed up for TimeRex.

The six roles and their permissions

Admin and Administrative Assistant have the same permissions. Member and Assistant also have the same permissions.

Change roles

For how to change the Owner, see Change the Team Owner.

For how to change the role of a team member other than the Owner, see Change a Team Member's Role.

Notes when changing roles

Administrative Assistants and Assistants cannot be selected in participant settings.

Therefore, changing an Owner, Admin, Member, or Light Member to Administrative Assistant or Assistant affects calendars, Instant Scheduling, and Group polls as follows:

  • If the member whose role is being changed is the only participant, the relevant calendar, Instant Scheduling, or Group poll is deleted when the role is changed.

  • If two or more participants are set, including the member whose role is being changed, that member is automatically removed from the participant settings when the role is changed.
