Instructions
How to add a new starter
Go to Manager > Staff
Click Add Staff
Toggle the Active Status from New Employee is Not Active to New Employee is Active
Click Place Staff in Pre-Employment if you wish to send starter forms or relevant policies to the new employee.
Select the correct permission role to attach to the new starter from the Staff Level dropdown.
Pre-employment means that the employee must fill in forms and accept policies before they can use the system.
Fill out the form with details of the new staff member: First Name, Surname, Email, their Manager, Department, Position, Start Date and Contract Type
Click Use Profiles to assign a default profile setting to the new starter and select the correct profile to apply. This will apply relevant settings to the employee.
Press Submit once you have filled in all information
Note: If you need to add additional information, i.e. an Employee Number, please add in here.
When an employee has completed pre-employment, managers must then grant access to the system (once the employee has everything completed. )
This can be done in System Details>Grant Access
OR go to Manager>Reports>Onboarding Report and Grant Access from there.
Until the starter form is complete, managers should not generate a contract.
