How to assign different permissions on same role.

I am building a Laravel application and I used the Permission package from Spatie. I created roles such as superadmin, admin, and employee. Both superadmin and admin roles have access to the Admin Dashboard. The employee role has an access to a different dashboard.

The superadmin role is assigned with all permissions. Since the superadmin and admin can access the Admin Dashboard, I want the admin role to have different permissions. Example: Admin User 1 => can create, edit, delete employees Admin User 2 => can create employees only

I can't seem to find a way how to provide different permissions for the role admin. I had to use admin1, admin2 just to provide different permissions. I'm wondering if there is a way to achieve this so when I query the results to display all users with the admin role, I only supply the where clause with role admin and not admin1, admin2, etc. I am aware of providing direct specific permissions to users but I want it to incorporate with the role admin as well.

Thank you in advance.

this is exactly what the permissions package is for

you assign abilities (permissions) to a role then assign one or more roles to a user

then in your code check if the user has the ability to do a certain function. Don't do it by checking the role.
