# How to add an admin role in expenses

### Adding admin roles:

The person who first activates the Travel Expenses module is automatically assigned as an administrator for this module.

If you want other absence.io admins to also have access and act as Travel Expenses admins, you can easily add them:

Go to the **“Users”** section, click the three dots next to the desired person → **“Edit”** → and activate the **“Administrator”** toggle.
