   • Direct and indirect reports if you want this role to perform actions for their direct and indirect reports.

   • Employment country: If you want this role to view information or perform actions for employees or contractors assigned to a specific employment country, ensure the role is scoped accordingly. Company users with permission to invite new employees or contractors can only invite individuals from the employment countries their role is scoped for. You can assign this custom role permission to one or more countries.

   • Entire company if you want this role to view information and perform actions for all hires assigned to this company.

4. Based on what you choose, Step 4 will give you an overview of the type of notifications this company user is expected to receive.
