FAQ
Org Hierarchy & Reporting Lines — Questions We Get Asked
It's derived automatically from each employee's reporting relationship — set once on their record — rather than drawn and maintained as a separate chart.
The Starter plan (₹79/employee/month) includes org hierarchy up to three levels. Unlimited hierarchy depth is part of the Growth plan (₹149/employee/month), for organizations with deeper reporting chains.
Employee Lifecycle Management places each new record into the structure automatically, and Role-Based Access Control reads the same hierarchy to scope what a manager can see.
Updating the reporting relationship on the employee's record updates the hierarchy immediately — there's no separate chart to redraw.
