How would I allow a user to be able to create an employee but not the admin/users page. I need HR to be able to create employees but I do not want to give them access to the admin panel. In role management I do not have the option to give them access to employees module.
Would I need to create a custom module or something?
I don’t know the answer, I suspect there is no way.
The Users and Employees modules are actually very connected, in ways that aren’t always intuitive:

You might need custom code to restrict that.
An alternative is to try to have them do stuff in Excel, and then import via CSV. Check if there is an import function available for Employees, I am not sure.
