Admin | Activity Management – Configure & Monitor Activity

Admin → Activity Management Overview & Prerequisites The Activity Module displays users' daily, weekly, and monthly activities and helps track daily working hours, activity percentage, and attendance details (linked with the Attendance Module). Note: The Activity Module is a paid feature and requires a PRO subscription of the Simplified HR application. Prerequisites: - PRO subscription to the Simplified HR application. - Activity Module enabled in System > Module Settings. - Appropriate user permissions for your role. The My Activity Module Setting is accessible only to: - Admin roles. - Roles with explicit permissions granted. Access Module Settings To access the module configuration, navigate to: System > Module Settings > My Activity. View Employee Activity Admins can track employee activities individually by navigating to: Control Center > Users > Members > Activity. This allows the admin to monitor activity details for each employee separately. Configure Web Attendance The Web attendance source controls whether users can check in/out through the web. - If selected: Users can perform check in/out through the web. - If not selected: The web check-in/out option will not be available to users. Additional Options - Restrict user's check in/out based on the whitelisted locations list — If selected, users can check in/out only when their location matches one of the whitelisted IPs/locations defined in the system. If not selected, users can check in/out from any location without restriction. - Require a comment for the first check in of the day — If selected, users must enter a comment while performing their first check-in of the day. If not selected, users can check in without providing any comment. Configure Desktop Activity Tracker If Enabled: - The Activity Tracker (Desktop) option becomes visible in the Attendance Source list. - Admins can select it as an attendance source and assign its priority order among other sources (e.g., Mobile, Biometric, Web). If Disabled: - The Activity Tracker (Desktop) option will not appear in the Attendance Source list. Configure Mobile Activity Tracker Enable Geo-Fencing The Activity Tracker (Mobile) must be enabled first. If it is not enabled, the Geo-fencing section will not be displayed. When enabled, the user's check-in/out is validated against their geo-location; when disabled, users can check in/out from anywhere without restriction. - Add Boundary: Admin can configure the boundary by selecting a location and setting the radius in meters. All geo-fencing–based settings apply within this defined boundary. - Automatically check in/out when users move in/out of the boundary — When enabled, the system auto check-ins when the user enters the defined boundary and auto check-outs when they exit; when disabled, users must manually check in/out. - Automatically check out users when their shift ends — When enabled, users are auto checked out at the end of their shift; when disabled, users must check out manually. - Require a comment for the first check in of the day — When enabled, users must provide a comment during their first check-in of the day; when disabled, no comment is required. Configure Biometric Attendance If Enabled: - The Biometric option becomes visible in the Attendance Source list. - Admins can configure biometric devices through the Biometric Module and select it as an attendance source with the required priority order. If Disabled: - The Biometric option will not appear in the Attendance Source list. Configure Primary Attendance Source Admins can define the main attendance source that will be used to mark user attendance. Options include: - Activity Tracker (Mobile) - Activity Tracker (Desktop) - Biometric - Web The selected source will be labeled as Primary in the attendance source list. Configure Attendance Fallback Sources Enable Fallback Sources When enabled, the system will use other configured attendance sources as backup if the primary source data is missing or unavailable. When disabled, attendance will only be marked from the Primary Source; no backups will be used. Source Priority Order - All available attendance sources are listed in order of priority. - Admins can adjust the order using the up/down arrows. - Example: Activity Tracker (Mobile) – Primary, Activity Tracker (Desktop), Biometric, Web. - If fallback is enabled and the primary source (e.g., Mobile) has no data, the system checks the next source (e.g., Desktop), and so on. Important: If any attendance source is already configured, it cannot be disabled if it is being used globally, by teams, or for user exceptions. Configure Attendance Calculation Mark Attendance Based On offers two options: Primary Shift Only If selected: Attendance is calculated only for the user's assigned primary shift. Any data outside the primary shift will not be counted for attendance. All Shifts Combined If selected: Attendance is calculated by combining data from all assigned shifts. Useful for employees who are assigned multiple shifts in a day. Manage Team Attendance Exceptions The Team Exception tab allows admins to configure attendance exceptions at the team level. Header Controls - Search Field – Lets admins quickly find a specific team by typing its name. - Filter by Source – Dropdown filter to display teams based on their attendance source (e.g., Desktop, Mobile, Biometric, etc.). - Reset Button – Clears applied search or filters and reloads the full list. - Add Teams Button – Opens the interface to add new teams and configure their attendance rules.

The first one is tagged as Primary. Team Selection Area - Search Field – Search available teams by name. - Team List – Displays all teams that can be added (already configured teams are excluded). - Checkboxes – Select one or multiple teams to apply the configuration. Edit Team Attendance Configuration When editing a team configuration: - Default Attendance Source – Defines the main method of capturing attendance (e.g., Desktop, Mobile, Biometric, Web). - Mark Attendance Based On – Primary Shift Only (uses only the employee's assigned primary shift) or All Shifts (combines attendance from all assigned shifts). - Enable Fallback Sources – When enabled, the system checks backup sources in the defined priority order if the default source fails. - Priority Order – Admins can arrange sources in sequence (e.g., Desktop → Mobile → Biometric → Web). The top source is marked as Primary. Important: Team Configuration Priority: Team-level settings override global attendance configurations for all members unless individual employee overrides are applied. Delete Team Attendance Exception From the Actions column of the Team Exception table, admins can select Delete to remove a team's attendance configuration. Configure Location Tracking The Location Tracking module helps determine whether users are working from the office or remotely by validating their connected IP address against the configured list. How it Works - If a user connects from a configured IP address, their status is marked as Office. - If a user connects from an unconfigured (non-listed) IP address, their status is marked as Remote. This location information is reflected in: - Activity Report - Timesheet - In Status Enable/Disable Tracking – The toggle switch at the top allows admins to turn Location Tracking on or off. Add Location Tracking IP Admins can configure static IP addresses and map them to: - Location Name – Select from locations already configured in System > Organization > Location. - Network Name Important: If users connect via dynamic IPs, tracking may not be reliable.

The member will show as absent after the completion of the absent grace period. 3. Select the appropriate time unit from the dropdown. Impact on Reporting: Work hours configuration directly influences employee attendance calculations, time tracking accuracy, activity report generation, and payroll-related time computations. Manage Projects The Projects module setting provides a centralized interface for managing all organizational projects, including project creation, assignment, billing configuration, and team management. Project Search and Filtering - Search for Specific Projects: Enter the project name or keywords, then click the search icon or press Enter to filter results. The project list updates to show matching results. - Filter by Team Assignment: Click the dropdown to expand team options and select a specific team to view only projects assigned to that team.

Add Leave Reason In the reason space, you can submit any notes for HR about your leave request. Add Leave Attachment You can upload any attachments you need to send with your leave request. Notify Others In the Notify Others section, you can select to notify other people outside of the HR department about your leave application. To add someone, start typing their name and select them from the dropdown that appears under the Notify Others box. Mark Leave as Unavailable in Calendar Mark as Unavailable in Calendar will be checked by default. Uncheck it if you do not wish for your calendar to be clocked out during your leave time. View Team Leave Conflict Simplified will alert you if your chosen leave dates clash with anyone else on your team, in case this may change your leave decision. View Leave Request Once your leave is requested, the pending leave will be redirected to a specific user in the Leave Queue who will approve the leave. Users can view the leave applications, edit the leave date, and cancel the leave application by clicking the three dots on each row. View Leave Request Status When a leave is in pending status, a pending icon is shown in the leave card for the leave type. Edit Pending Leave Request Users can edit the leave date by clicking the three dots on the leave request row. Cancel Leave Request Users can cancel the leave application by clicking the three dots on the leave request row. Important: Once the leave is approved, current and past date approved leave cannot be cancelled by the user. View Pending Leave Indicator When a leave is in pending status, a pending icon is shown in the leave card for the leave type. View Leave by Cycle The cycle year dropdown shows the leaves from the current/previous cycle and also the upcoming cycle when the cycle year is about to end in the next two months. The leaves are filtered cycle-wise, according to whatever cycle is followed by the leave policies. View Leave Adjustment Log The Adjustment Log tab serves as a comprehensive transaction ledger that records and displays all leave balance modifications across different leave types. This tab provides complete visibility into how leave balances are calculated through credits and debits, including: - Automatic accruals based on defined leave policies (monthly, quarterly, or yearly credits). - Manual credits by HR administrators for corrections or special allocations. - Carry-forward leaves from previous periods. - Approved leave days taken. Understand Leave Policy Restrictions The following system behaviors, described in the source documentation, affect what an employee can do when applying for leave, depending on how the applicable leave policy is configured: - Leave without pay is only available to employees whose accrued balance is zero. - Backdated leave is only permitted for employees if the policy explicitly allows applicant backdating, up to the configured number of days. - A minimum service period (waiting period) or probation completion may be required before first leave eligibility, depending on the leave type. - A leave type may have a maximum number of simultaneous requests allowed. - If leave requests are disabled for the organization or an employee group, the employee cannot apply directly but can still view their leave balance; an admin can apply or modify leave on their behalf. - If "Require a reason for leave" is enabled, a reason must be entered before the request can be submitted. - If a minimum notice period ("Submit Leave Ahead of Time") is configured, leave must be requested that far in advance.

Admin | Leave Management – Manage Policies & Approvals

Note on Manager Role: The source documentation describes three distinct roles: Employee, Manager, and HR Admin. Manager/Approver capabilities are documented in the companion "Leave Operations & Approvals" document, since they involve elevated, approval-level access rather than policy configuration. They remain role-restricted to Managers/Approvers/HR Admins in the actual product, not general Employee access. Leave Management Overview The employee leave module automates leave management, serving as the hub for time-off requests, balances, and policy compliance. Policy Configuration Policy level configuration lets HR create targeted, location- and employment-type-specific policies that apply automatically based on predefined criteria. Module Structure Most leave management systems are divided into distinct modules: Admin Module: - Add, update, and delete leave types and departments. - Manage employee leave status and leave balance. - Process leave applications (approve/reject). - Receive notifications for new leave requests. Employee Module: - Login with secure credentials. - Update personal profiles. - Apply for leave through intuitive forms. - View leave history and status. Role-Based Access Control The system implements multiple user roles with specific permissions: - Employees: Apply for leave, check status, view balances, download reports. - Managers: Approve/reject requests, view team leave reports, apply leave on behalf of team members. - HR Admin: Configure policies, assign leave balances, reassign requests, generate comprehensive reports. Important: The source documentation does not provide further step-by-step detail for "download reports" (Employee), "view team leave reports" (Manager), or "reassign requests" and "generate comprehensive reports" (HR Admin). These capabilities are listed here exactly as described, without invented procedures. Prerequisites - Admin role access: Requires admin or owner permissions in the Simplified HR platform. - Proper role assignments: Team members must have appropriate permissions to access leave modules. Important: Only users with admin, owner, or similar high-level roles can configure leave settings and manage processes across the organization. This restriction ensures proper governance and control. Permission Override: Owner, admin, or similar role members will override any restrictions set up in the leave configuration. Access Leave Settings 1. Log in to your Simplified HR application with valid admin credentials. 2. Navigate to System > Module Settings. 1. In the Module Settings page, click Leave from the left sidebar menu. Create Leave Policy 1. Click the New Policy button to add a new policy. 1. Provide a policy name. 2. Click Create to create the policy, or Cancel to discard it. 1. After the policy is created, click the edit button to configure the policy. Configure Policy Applicability Policy level configuration allows HR systems to create targeted, location-specific, and employment-type-specific policies that automatically apply to the right employees based on predefined criteria. - Policy Name — The policy identifier that serves as the foundation for all configuration settings. This name should be descriptive and indicate the policy's purpose and scope. - Location-Based Applicability — Geographic targeting ensures policies comply with local regulations and cultural practices. - Employment Type-Based Applicability — Employment classification targeting ensures policies reflect different working arrangements and legal requirements. The policy should be created based on the employee's location and employment type. Configure Policy Period The policy period is based on the work year for the selected location. Configure Policy Effective Date The 'Effective From' setting determines when a new or updated policy becomes active for eligible employees. Current Date (Immediate Effect) Policy becomes active immediately upon saving or approval. Future Date (Scheduled Implementation) Policy activates on a specific predetermined date. Next Cycle (Cycle-Based Activation) Policy becomes effective at the start of the next defined organizational cycle (annual, quarterly, or custom periods). How it works: The system automatically calculates when the next cycle begins based on: - Calendar cycles: Next calendar year, quarter, or month. - Custom cycles: Organization-specific periods (e.g., academic year, seasonal cycles). Allow Leave Date Changes Before Approval Allows employees to modify pending leave request dates during the approval workflow, without needing full resubmission. Configure Leave Without Pay The 'Allow leave without pay if accrued balance is 0' setting determines whether employees can request unpaid leave once their paid leave entitlement is exhausted. Important: This option is only available for employees with a zero leave balance. Freeze Leave Accrual for Offboarding Users This setting stops paid leave from accruing for offboarding employees, ensuring accurate final calculations. Configure Admin Backdated Leave This setting lets admins bypass the normal backdating limits placed on regular employees, with the specified number of days determining how far back they can process requests. Configure Employee Backdated Leave The "Allow Applicant to Backdate Leave by Up to X Day(s) in the Past" setting lets employees submit past-dated leave applications for genuine cases where timely application wasn't possible, through the self-service portal, up to the specified number of days. Configure Team Leave Visibility The "Show Leave Dates from Other Users in the Team" setting lets team members view each other's approved/pending leave schedules, aiding coordination. Configure Leave Accrual These systems offer extensive customization for varying employment types, leave types, and location-specific regulations. To set up accrual, click the edit icon for a leave type, then provide an accrual name and choose Paid or Unpaid. Configure Paid Leave Paid leave is time off during which the employee continues to receive normal salary and benefits. Configure Unpaid Leave Unpaid leave is extended time off without compensation, which can create financial challenges for employees. Important: Only unpaid leave days will be deducted from the salary, unless there is a full month of unpaid leave, in which case the total salary will not be credited. Configure Accrual Method Accrual methods can be combined/customized to meet organizational policies. Available methods: - Fixed Balance — A predetermined lump-sum allocation of leave days/hours credited upfront, typically annually, rather than earned gradually. - Fixed Cycle — Leave credited at regular intervals (monthly, bi-weekly, quarterly) regardless of hours worked, for consistent timing. - Percentage of Gross Hours — Leave calculated as a percentage of hours worked per pay period, proportional to time worked; suits part-time/variable schedules. - Tenure-Based — Accrual rates adjust by length of service, typically rewarding longer tenure as a retention incentive. Configure Leave Entitlement Define the number of days you want to provide for the leave type. Reset Leave Balance Check "Reset balance when count reaches 0" to control whether the system resets to a predetermined amount or stays at zero until the next accrual period. Configure Prorated Accrual Check "Prorate Accrual" to adjust an employee's leave entitlement proportionally based on actual time worked in the accrual period, ensuring a fair allocation. Configure Leave Carryover The system processes carryover with precedence over encashment. This is a basic transfer of unused leave to the next period, but it expires after a specified period. Configure Leave Encashment Leave encashment converts accumulated leave into monetary compensation. Process Leave Encashment The encashment process follows these steps: 1. Accumulation — Unused leave carries over annually. 2. Request submission — Formal application during employment, or automatic during separation. 3. Calculation and approval — HR validates balances and computes entitlement. 4. Disbursement — Payment through next salary or final settlement. Configure Waiting Period Service tenure requirements before leave eligibility can be configured with specific parameters. Key settings: - Minimum service period before first leave application. - Probation completion requirements for certain leave types. Allow Leave Accrual During Probation This setting determines whether new employees accumulate leave entitlements from their first day or after completing probationary periods. Configure Gender Availability The "Specify gender availability" setting allows certain leave types to be restricted based on employee gender, particularly relevant for statutory leaves like maternity and paternity leave. Configure Tenure Bonus A tenure bonus is a supplemental number of days offered beyond regular leave, to encourage employees to stay with the company for a set period. An anniversary-based policy adds days per anniversary after specific years of service — a progressive system that increases annual leave entitlement based on tenure. Configure Sandwich Leave Sandwich leave is when employees take leave immediately before and after weekends or public holidays, creating extended time off. If leave falls on days before and after non-working days (a weekend or holiday), those non-working days also count as leave and are deducted from balance. Configure Sandwich Leave Deduction Category Deduct balance from this leave category: Determines which leave type's balance is reduced when sandwich leave triggers. Selecting the same type (e.g., "Casual Leave") deducts both the original days and sandwiched holidays/weekends from that balance. Deduct balance from another leave category: Lets HR specify a different category to bear the extra deducted days, instead of the type the employee originally applied for. Example: Deduct sandwich penalties from "Casual Leave" even if the employee applied for "Bereavement Leave." Configure Weekend and Public Holiday Deduction "Deduct balance when leave falls between a weekend and a public holiday": If leave falls on days between non-working days, those days also count as leave. If not selected, all connecting non-working days (in-between and adjacent) count. If the option is selected Only non-working days between two leave days count; adjacent weekends/holidays don't. Example: Leave on Friday and Monday, weekend in between — Sat/Sun deducted. If Tuesday is a holiday and you return Wednesday, Tuesday isn't deducted. Total: 4 days (Fri–Mon). If the option is NOT selected All connected non-working days — in-between and adjacent — count. Example: Same Fri–Mon leave, Tuesday a holiday, return Wednesday — Tuesday also counts (adjacent). Total: 5 days (Fri–Tue). Configure Future Leave Balance Deduction "Do not deduct balance if user requests leave ahead of time" prevents immediate balance deduction when employees submit leave requests for future dates. Important: The "Submit Leave Ahead Of Time" setting must be checked under Additional Options for this behavior to apply. Configure Half-Day Sandwich Leave "Do not deduct balance if user requests for a half day leave": If the half-day leave falls at the start of the sandwich period, balance is not deducted. Require Leave Reason The "Require a reason for leave" setting mandates that employees enter a detailed reason in a text field before submitting their request. Disable Leave Requests This control lets HR teams temporarily or permanently block leave applications system-wide or for specific employee groups. Important: Users cannot apply for leave directly, but can only see their balance. Admins can apply or modify leave on the user's behalf. Limit Leave Requests This feature lets organizations cap simultaneous leave requests within teams/departments for adequate staffing, controlling how often a leave type can be requested. Allow Leave in Advance This policy lets employees take leave exceeding their accrued balance, creating negative balances that future accruals offset — even without the required balance. Configure Advance Leave Notice The "Submit Leave Ahead of Time" setting sets minimum notice requirements before leave, ensuring adequate planning and coverage. Configure Leave Approval Leave approval and notification systems automate requesting and approving/denying time off, ensuring transparency. Four approval options determine who must approve a request and how it flows: - None - All Selected - Any Selected - Inherit from Global Configuration Configure No-Approval Leave None: No approval required — requests are auto-approved upon submission, bypassing the workflow. Configure Sequential Approval All Selected: All designated approvers must approve, in sequence, before the request is finalized. How it works: - Leave Request goes to all approvers. - Once approved by one approver, it automatically routes to the next approver, keeping the leave in Action Taken status. - Process continues until every selected approver has approved. - If any approver rejects, the entire request is denied. Configure Parallel Approval Any Selected: Any one of the selected approvers can approve — a parallel workflow where all receive it at once, but only one approval is needed. How it works: - Leave Request is sent to all selected approvers at once. - First approver to respond determines the outcome. - Once one person approves/rejects, the request is finalized. - Other approvers are notified of the decision. Inherit Global Approval Configuration Inherit from Global Configuration: Uses the org's default approval settings at the policy level, ensuring consistency. Changes to global settings auto-update all inheriting accruals. Configure Leave Notifications "Notify users with the following role(s) when a request is made": Sends automatic notifications to all users who hold specific organizational roles whenever a new request is submitted. "Notify the following team(s) when a request is made": Sends notifications to entire predefined teams or groups when requests are created. Save Leave Policy as Draft Use the Save Draft button to make the policy a draft for future editing. Activate Leave Policy Click the Save & Activate button to activate the policy. Once a leave policy is saved and activated, it enters an active status that implements strict editing restrictions to maintain data integrity and compliance. It becomes operationally live and begins affecting employee leave calculations, balances, and entitlements. Edit Active Leave Policy Once a leave policy is activated, it becomes operationally live, and most configuration affecting leave calculations, balances, and entitlements becomes restricted. Important: Exception: The Notification and Approval section remains editable, as these settings don't affect leave calculations, balances, or entitlements.

Admin | Leave Management – Leave Operations & Approvals

Note on Manager Role: The source documentation describes three distinct roles: Employee, Manager, and HR Admin. Because this documentation uses only two top-level sections, Manager/Approver capabilities (approve/reject requests, view team leave reports, apply leave on behalf of team members) are documented under the Admin section, since they involve elevated, approval-level access rather than standard employee self-service. They remain role-restricted to Managers/Approvers/HR Admins in the actual product, not general Employee access. Admin → Leave Management Leave Management Overview An employee leave module automates and streamlines the entire leave management process. This module serves as the central hub for managing employee time-off requests, tracking balances, and ensuring policy compliance across organizations. View Employee Leave Balance Admin can check the total balance, available balance, and number of days used for the leave type. Adjust Employee Leave Balance Admin can adjust the leave balance by clicking the edit button on a leave type.  This opens a modal for the adjustment of leave balance. Accrual Balance - What it changes: The amount the employee has earned or been credited (credits they accumulated). - When to use: Correct credits that came from policy rules, holiday work, extra work, system errors, or policy changes. - How to enter values: Enter a positive number to add earned credits (for example, 3) or a negative number to remove earned credits (for example, -1). Available Balance - What it changes: The amount the employee can use immediately (the usable leave pool). - When to use: Refund days to the usable pool, correct an incorrectly recorded leave, or remove usable days for policy violations or management decisions. - How to enter values: Enter a positive number to refund/add usable days (for example, 2) or a negative number to deduct usable days (for example, -3). Examples - Remove an accidental earned credit of 1 day: choose Accrual Balance, enter -1. - Refund 2 days to the employee's usable balance after an incorrect leave charge: choose Available Balance, enter +2. - Deduct 3 usable days for a policy violation: choose Available Balance, enter -3. 1. Provide the balance to adjust and a valid reason. (A minus sign can be used to reduce the balance.) 2. The effective date is set to the current date by default; it can also be selected as a future date. 3. Click the Save button to adjust the leave balance. Result: The balance is updated in the leave type, the change is recorded in the Adjustment Log. View Leave Adjustment Log The Adjustment Log tab serves as a comprehensive transaction ledger that records and displays all leave balance modifications for employees across different leave types. This tab provides complete visibility into how leave balances are calculated through credits and debits, including: - Automatic accruals based on defined leave policies (monthly, quarterly, or yearly credits). - Manual credits by HR administrators for corrections or special allocations. - Carry-forward leaves from previous periods. - Employees taking approved leave days. Apply Leave on Behalf of Employee Admin can apply leave on behalf of the user and also check the leave balance and adjust the same. 1. Navigate to the Control Center Users section and view the user profile. 2. In the user profile, go to the Leave tab, where all leave types will be displayed. 3. Click the Record Leave button to apply leave on behalf of the user. 4. This opens the same modal for leave apply as in the user dashboard. Follow the same process to apply the leave. 5. Click Submit. View Leave Queue When you receive a leave request, it will show up as a notification in your control center. From the Simplified HR Home Page, navigate to Control Center > Leave Queue. Alternatively, click the Leave Queue tile from the Control Center screen. The Leave Queue is where pending leave requests are shown. Approval is only required if a category of leave in a leave policy is set to require approval. Approved and Rejected leave requests are shown in the Approved and Rejected tabs. Approve Leave Request To approve a leave requisition, use the Checkmark button. Reject Leave Request To deny a leave requisition, use the X button. View Leave Request Details The leave details can be viewed in the view details section. View Leave Approval History The approver details can be found in the View History option. View Applicant Profile The profile of the applicant can be viewed by clicking the View Profile button. This redirects to the applicant's profile. Propose Leave Date Change When you need to modify dates for a pending leave request (one that hasn't been approved yet), click the Propose Changes button. Add a reason for the date change and submit the updated request. Modify Approved Leave Once leave is approved, the corresponding leave will be shown in the Approved leave queue. From here, the approved leave can be modified by clicking on it. 1. Provide the reason for the change. 2. Update the leave date. 3. Click the Update button to modify the leave. The leave balance is also shown here for reference. Cancel Approved Leave The approved leave can be cancelled by clicking the Cancel button. Search Leave Requests Leave date filters in pending leave queues help managers and HR administrators efficiently sort and manage leave requests awaiting approval based on specific date criteria.

Admin | Biometric – Configure Devices & Reports

This document reorganizes the existing "Biometric Module Guide" knowledge base article into an Admin / Employee structure. All content, steps, field names, and rules below are taken directly from the source article at hello.besimplified.com — nothing has been added, removed, or invented. Only the grouping and headings have changed. Note on Role Scope: The source article is almost entirely administrator-facing (installation, provider setup, device configuration, and reports). It describes exactly one employee-facing feature: the "Biometric Activity Today" card in My Activity, where users view and refresh their own current-day punch data. Configuration, reports, and troubleshooting for devices/providers are documented under Admin only. Admin → Biometric  Overview The Biometric module helps you track and manage employee attendance through automated punch-in and punch-out data collection. This comprehensive guide covers installation, configuration, and reporting features. Important: The Biometric module is a premium feature that requires a Pro subscription. Before You Begin — Prerequisites: - Pro subscription to Simplified HR. - Access to admin privileges for configuration. - Biometric device provider credentials (API details). - Device IDs and location information.

Admin | Signature Maker – Configure Templates & Teams

Admin → Signature Maker Overview The Signature Maker is a specialized solution designed and integrated into the Simplified HR platform to enable comprehensive digital or electronic signatures for all your HR documents and workflows. This powerful tool transforms how your organization handles document approvals by providing a seamless, paperless alternative to traditional signature processes. Benefits of digital signatures: - Accelerate document processing: Reduce approval times from days to minutes. - Enhance security: Digital signatures provide better authentication than handwritten signatures. - Improve compliance: Maintain detailed audit trails for all signed documents. - Reduce costs: Eliminate printing, scanning, and physical document storage needs. - Enable remote workflows: Allow team members to sign documents from anywhere. The solution integrates seamlessly with your existing HR workflows, supporting everything from employment contracts and policy acknowledgments to performance reviews and benefits enrollment forms. Prerequisites Before you can begin using the Signature Maker functionality, ensure you have the following requirements in place: - Admin role access in the Simplified HR platform. - Active Simplified HR account with marketplace access privileges. - Understanding of your organization's signature requirements and compliance policies. - Proper permissions to install and configure new modules for your team. Important: Only users with admin roles can configure signatures for the team and manage signature settings across the organization. This restriction ensures proper governance and control over signature processes. For comprehensive details about roles, permissions, and access controls, refer to the Roles and Permissions documentation. Install Signature Maker The Signature Maker module must be installed from the Simplified HR marketplace before you can access any signature functionality. This marketplace-based approach ensures you always have access to the latest features and security updates. Important: Refer to the Marketplace documentation for installation instructions. Access Signature Maker After completing the installation, you can immediately begin creating professional email signatures for your organization. When you first open the Signature Maker module, the system will prompt you to create your first signature directly from the home page.  Create Initial Signature 1. Access the Signature Maker from your main dashboard navigation. 2. Review the welcome screen, which provides an overview of signature creation capabilities. 3. Click "Create My Signature" to launch the signature builder and begin the setup process. Select Signature Template After clicking "Create My Signature," the system displays several professionally designed email signature templates. These templates serve as the foundation for your organization's signature standards and can be customized extensively to meet your specific needs. After selecting the template, click Continue to customize the email signature. Create Signature Template Provide the template name and the teams selected who will be using the email signature template. Configure Team-Based Signature Templates The Signature Maker enables sophisticated team management capabilities, allowing you to create targeted signature templates for different organizational units. You can generate distinct signature templates for different teams within your organization, for example: - Sales team signatures: Include specific contact information, social media links, and promotional elements. - Management team signatures: Feature executive titles, direct contact methods, and corporate governance information. - IT support team signatures: Incorporate technical support channels, help desk information, and service availability. Configure Team Access The admin who is generating signatures, or whoever is performing this action, should be assigned to the team members. This ensures that when someone generates signatures for a specific team, the system verifies whether all members are properly assigned to that team or not. Access levels: - Team-wise access: Users can view or use signatures only for their assigned team(s). - All-team access: If someone has access to all teams, they can view or use signatures for all teams.  Verify Team Assignment    Key points: - Assignment verification: Before signature generation, check if the person generating has proper team assignments. - Access control: Signatures should be accessible based on team membership. - Scope management: Different access levels (single team vs. all teams) should determine signature visibility and usage permissions. This describes a role-based access control system where signature generation and usage are restricted based on team assignments and administrative privileges. Manage All-Team Access If someone has access to all teams, they can view or use signatures for all teams.  Configure Editing Permission Check the "Allow editing" checkbox to enable team members to modify their individual signatures within the template framework. Configure editing permissions to determine which signature elements users can customize. Configure Profile Image Use the zoom controls (+ and - buttons) to adjust image size for optimal display. You can zoom in, zoom out, and rotate the profile picture by clicking the + / - buttons, and apply rotation using the rotate button to achieve perfect alignment. Adjust Signature Image Image adjustments (zoom and rotation) affect the appearance and alignment of the profile image within the signature. Configure Signature Fields You can set the signature fields, and as per the field, the signature will be updated in the template. Configure Job Title Field When you select "Job Title" as a signature field, the system automatically displays each employee's current position. Configure Location Field Selecting "Location" as a signature field shows the employee's assigned work location. Configure Employment Type Field The "Employment Type" field displays whether employees are full-time, part-time, contract, or consultant status. Configure Custom Fields There is an option to choose custom fields. Besides some predefined fields, if someone selects from the custom dropdown, they will be able to set their own custom value according to their preference. - Predefined options: The system includes standard/predefined field options that users can select from. - Custom dropdown flexibility: Users have access to dropdown menus with preset choices. - Custom value input: When users interact with the custom dropdown, they can enter their own custom values instead of being limited to only the predefined options. - User autonomy: Users can set values according to their specific needs/preferences. Configure Signature Footer You can set the footer, and as per the footer field, the signature will be updated in the template. Configure Team Footer Selecting "Team" as the footer field displays the employee's department or team designation. Configure Work Email Footer If you select the footer as Work Email, it will reflect the work email in the footer of the signature field. Configure Social Network Links The Signature Maker supports comprehensive social media integration, allowing you to include up to three different social network links in each signature. Configure Social Network 1 You can set Social Network 1, and as per the field, the signature will be updated in the template. For example: select "Telegram" to display your organization's or individual's Telegram contact, or choose "Facebook" to link to your company's official Facebook page or professional profile. Configure Social Network 2 You can set Social Network 2. For example: select "Twitter" to showcase your organization's Twitter presence, or choose "Instagram" to highlight visual content and company culture. Configure Social Network 3 You can set Social Network 3. For example: select "LinkedIn" to connect with recipients on the premier professional networking platform, or choose "MS Teams" to facilitate direct collaboration and communication. Important: Telegram, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, LinkedIn, and MS Teams are documented examples of the options available in these dropdowns, not necessarily the only options in the UI. Configure Link Text 1 You can set Link Text 1, and as per the field, the signature will be updated in the template. For example: configure "Work Email" as Link Text 1 to provide a clickable email contact method, or select "Employment Type" to provide context about employee status and availability. ![](https://simply-ai.s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/support.besimplified.com/55/image25 .png) Configure Link Text 2 You can set Link Text 2. For example: choose "Location" to provide clickable links to office addresses, maps, or location-specific information.

Customize Icon Color Icon Color Customization: Modify icon colors to match your organizational brand guidelines, ensuring visual consistency across all signatures and maintaining professional appearance standards. Show or Hide Signature Fields You can show/hide every field from the configuration panel. Allow User Selection Allow User Selection Checkbox: When enabled, this feature permits individual users to customize certain signature elements after the template has been configured. This approach balances organizational control with personal customization needs. Important: Allow User Selection is distinct from Allow Editing: Allow Editing enables team members to modify their individual signatures within the template framework, while Allow User Selection permits users to customize certain signature elements after the template has been configured.

Click the delete button for the template you want to remove. 2. Review the confirmation dialog that appears to prevent accidental deletions. 3. Click "Delete" to confirm removal and permanently delete the template. Cancel Signature Template Deletion Select "Cancel" to abort the deletion process and retain the template. Understand Template Deletion Scope If "Created by Me" is deleted, the user-specific template will be deleted, but the "Created by Admin" and main template will remain intact. - User-specific deletion: When a user deletes their customized template (Created by Me), only their personalized version is removed from the system. - Admin template protection: The original admin-created template and main template remain untouched and continue to be available. - Selective removal: The deletion operation is scoped to only affect the user's custom modifications, not the organizational base templates. Manage Created by Admin Templates Created by Admin: Templates generated and managed centrally by administrators for team members to use.

Employee | Signature Maker – Customize My Signature

Employee → Signature Maker Overview The Signature Maker enables comprehensive digital or electronic signatures for HR documents and workflows. Organization-provided email signature templates are made available to you based on your team assignment, and — where enabled by an administrator — you can personalize certain signature elements. Access My Email Signature After a template is saved by an administrator, the signature becomes available in the My Email Signature section for users who are assigned to the appropriate team. Important: Team members see only relevant signature templates, based on their team assignment. View Team Email Signature Team Email Signature is displayed for the team members. Understand Team-Based Signature Access Access levels: - Team-wise access: You can view or use signatures only for your assigned team(s). - All-team access: If you have access to all teams, you can view or use signatures for all teams. Customize My Signature When the administrator has checked the "Allow editing" checkbox, you can modify your individual signature within the template framework configured by the administrator. Select Allowed Signature Fields When "Allow User Selection" is enabled by the administrator, you can customize certain signature elements after the template has been configured. Edit My Signature You can modify your existing signature template through the dedicated edit button, which opens the template editor — available when editing has been enabled by the administrator. Create My Customized Signature "Created by Me": You can use the admin's template and customize or modify it according to your own needs, then use that customized version. Manage Created by Me Signature Distinction: - Created by Admin: Signatures/templates generated and managed centrally by administrators for team members to use. - Created by Me: Your personalized, customized version based on the admin-provided template. Delete My Customized Signature If your "Created by Me" template is deleted, only your user-specific template is removed. Important: The original "Created by Admin" template and the main template remain intact and continue to be available; deleting your customized version does not delete the admin's template. Preview My Signature Click the preview option to display a sample template with realistic data. - Review the signature appearance across different screen sizes and formats. - Test visual elements including images, colors, and text formatting. - Verify link functionality and social media integration. Close Signature Preview Click the cross (X) button to exit the preview modal and return to the template management interface. Copy Signature to Clipboard You can copy the template using the Copy to Clipboard option, for use in supported email environments. Download Signature You can download the template in HTML/PNG format: - HTML format: For email clients that support rich HTML signatures. - PNG format: For platforms that require image-based signatures or backup display options. View Dynamic Signature Information Configured fields automatically display your employee information within the signature, based on the underlying template configuration: - Job Title — your current position. - Location — your assigned work location. - Employment Type — your employment status (full-time, part-time, contract, or consultant). - Team — your department or team designation (footer field). - Work Email — your work email address (footer or link text field). Important: These values are controlled by the configured template and your underlying employee information — they are not manually typed into the signature by you unless the administrator has enabled editing or user selection for that field.

Admin | Offboarding Reports – Analyze Turnover & Attrition

Offboarding reports are analytical documents and dashboards that track employee departure processes, providing insights into organizational effectiveness and compliance. These reports serve both operational management and strategic decision-making purposes in HR systems. To access the offboarding reports, Navigate to the Control center > Reports > Offboarding reports Offboarding Get an overview of how long employees typically stay in your organisation Overview Section Offboardees This field shows the total number of employees who have been offboarded during the selected time period (2025). In this case, only 1 employee has been offboarded throughout the year. Turnover Rate This represents the employee turnover percentage, likely calculated as (number of departures / average number of employees) × 100. A 20% turnover rate indicates that one-fifth of the workforce has left during this period. Year Filter Dropdown The year filter in your offboarding report is a dropdown control that allows you to select different time periods for analyzing offboarding data on a yearly basis. The year filter (currently showing "2025") enables you to switch between different annual periods to compare offboarding trends across time. Offboarding Year-Over-Year Chart Time Period Filter: The dropdown showing "2025" allows you to select different years for comparison and analysis. Y-Axis (No of People): This scale ranges from 0 to 1.0, representing the number of people offboarded. The scale suggests this could be showing either actual counts or normalized values. X-Axis (Months): Displays all 12 months from January through December, providing a monthly breakdown of offboarding activity. Peak in July: The chart shows a significant spike reaching 1.0 in July, indicating that the single offboarding event occurred during that month. All other months show zero activity. Offboarding by Team This "Offboarding by Team" chart displays the distribution of employee departures across different organizational teams as percentages. Here's what each element represents: Y-Axis (Percentage %): Shows the percentage contribution of each team to total offboarding, ranging from 0 to 50+ percent. X-Axis (Teams): Lists the different teams or departments within the organization - in this case, "Management" and "Test Team." Bar Heights: Both bars reach exactly 50%, indicating an equal split in offboarding between these two teams. Management Team (50.00%): This team contributed half of all offboarding events during the selected time period. Test Team (50.00%): This team also contributed the other half of all offboarding events. Offboarding Reasons This pie chart displays offboarding reasons for employee departures in what appears to be data in the HR system. The visualization shows a single category. Inadequate Compensation accounts for 100% of all recorded offboarding cases. This means that every employee departure tracked in this dataset cited insufficient pay or benefits as their reason for leaving. This type of data visualization is valuable for identifying patterns in employee turnover and can inform retention strategies and compensation reviews. Offboarding by Location This pie chart displays offboarding by location, showing the geographic distribution of employee departures in the HR system. India accounts for 100% of all recorded employee departures. This means that every offboarding case in this dataset involves employees based in or departing from India. This geographic breakdown enhances your offboarding workflow system by providing location context for departure analytics and targeted retention efforts. Offboarding by Experience This pie chart displays offboarding by experience level, showing the seniority distribution of employee departures in the HR system. Senior-level employees account for 100% of all recorded departures. This means every offboarding case in this dataset involves employees at the senior experience level. This experience-based analysis complements your comprehensive offboarding status management system by providing crucial demographic insights for strategic HR decision-making. Offboarding Probation Period This pie chart displays offboarding by probation period, showing the tenure distribution of employee departures in the HR system. After the First Year accounts for 100% of all recorded departures. This means every offboarding case in this dataset involves employees who left after completing their first year of employment. This probation period data completes a compelling picture of your offboarding analytics, showing how tenure timing intersects with compensation issues to drive senior talent loss in your India operations.

Admin | Offboarding – Approve, Track & Finalize Departures (Part 1 of 2: Request Lifecycle & Offboardee Details)

Admin → Offboarding Overview Offboarding requests are the formal initiation of an employee's departure process from an organization. This process involves multiple stakeholders and automated workflows to ensure a smooth, compliant, and secure transition. Understand Offboarding Lifecycle Based on the source articles, the offboarding process generally follows these stages: 1. An offboarding request or record is initiated (by the employee via Request Offboarding, or directly by an administrator via Add Offboardee). 2. The request is reviewed and Accepted or Declined by an administrator. 3. A checklist is added for the offboardee (default and/or custom tasks). 4. Checklist tasks are completed and monitored. 5. The offboarding status is updated as the process progresses (Active → In Progress → Pending / Pending Review → Completed). 6. The administrator selects Finish Offboarding once all checklist requirements are satisfied. 7. The employee's system access is revoked and their record becomes an archived, historical offboarded-user record. Access Offboarding For the approval process, navigate to Control Center > Offboarding, where all the approval requests are submitted. View Offboarding Requests Administrators can access submitted offboarding requests and manage the departure process from the Offboarding section of Control Center. View Offboarding Details In the View Details section, the admin can get all the information about the offboardee. Information available includes: - Requester - Request Date - Manager (editable — admin can switch the manager if required) - Date of Joining - Employment Type - Team - Job Title - Location - Initial Notice Period - Initial Exit Date - Proposed Notice Period - New Exit Date - Checklist/tasks assigned to the offboardee View Requester Information - Requester: The employee who is initiating the offboarding process — this is the person requesting to leave the organization. - Request Date: The date when the offboarding request was submitted; this marks the official start of the offboarding process. View Manager Information Manager: The direct supervisor or manager of the employee requesting offboarding. This person typically needs to approve or review the request. Note: This field is editable — the admin can switch the manager if required. View Employment Information - Date of Joining: The original start date when the employee joined the company. This helps calculate tenure and may impact notice period requirements or benefits. - Employment Type: The classification of employment (e.g., Full-Time, Part-Time, Contract). This affects offboarding procedures and final settlements. - Team: The department or team(s) the employee belongs to. Note for reassigning responsibilities and access revocation. - Job Title: The employee's current position. This helps determine handover requirements and replacement planning. - Location: The employee's work location. Relevant for asset return, final paperwork, and exit interviews. View Initial Notice Period Initial Notice Period: The standard notice period as per company policy or employment contract, mentioned in the user's work profile. This is the default requirement. View Initial Exit Date Initial Exit Date: The calculated last working day, based on the request date and initial notice period. Review Proposed Notice Period Proposed Notice Period: A field for requesting a different notice period. The employee or manager can propose an alternative. Review New Exit Date New Exit Date: The last working day can be revised or modified, even if the proposed notice period is approved. Approve Notice Period Change Note: Changes to the notice period need to be approved by admin, as stated in the Request Offboarding form's administrative notice banner. Review Offboarding Request Offboarding approval is a critical workflow stage that ensures proper authorization and oversight before an employee's departure process begins. Offboarding approval requires completion of comprehensive checklists to ensure all critical tasks are addressed before an employee's departure is finalized. Accept Offboarding Request Accept/Decline buttons allow the manager or HR to approve or reject the offboarding request. Note: Once an admin adds a checklist and accepts the offboarding of the user, the user record is displayed under the Offboardees section with active status. Decline Offboarding Request Accept/Decline buttons allow the manager or HR to approve or reject the offboarding request. Add Offboarding Checklist A dropdown menu ("Please select") is the checklist task that the admin selects for the offboardee to complete before they leave the organization. View Offboardees Once an admin adds a checklist and accepts the offboarding of the user, the user record is displayed under the Offboardees section with active status. Filter Offboardees by Job Title The All Job Titles dropdown allows you to narrow down the offboardees list by specific job positions or roles, so you can focus on offboarding for specific roles instead of viewing all departing employees. Filter Offboardees by Status The All Statuses dropdown lets you sort offboardees by their current offboarding status. Search Offboardees Search by name or manager: find specific offboardees by their first or last name, or search for all offboardees under a specific manager. View Offboardee Profile Go to Profile navigates to the employee's full HR profile, providing access to their complete employment record beyond just offboarding information — useful for reviewing full employment history, personal details, or other HR-related information during the offboarding process. Cancel Offboarding Cancel Offboarding allows HR administrators to halt or reverse the offboarding process. This menu appears when you click the three dots (⋯) next to an individual employee record. Situations where this may be used: - An employee decides to stay with the company. - There was an error in initiating the offboarding. - The departure is being postponed. - Management wants to retain the employee. Add Offboardee Admin can directly add an offboardee by clicking the Add Offboardee button. Note: If any offboarding is raised previously by the member or added by the admin, and thereafter not cancelled or rejected, then raising a duplicate offboarding request will be restricted. 1. Click Add Offboardee. 1. Select the employee (Select User field). 2. Enter Notice Period. 3. Enter Exit Date. 4. Select Reason for Offboarding. 5. Upload the resignation letter or relevant documentation. 6. Click Confirm. Select Offboardee Select User (Required): This dropdown field allows you to choose which employee is being offboarded. This links the offboarding process to the specific employee's HR profile and ensures all departure activities are tracked under their record. Set Offboarding Notice Period Notice Period (Required): Shows the duration between when the employee gave notice and their actual departure date. This field helps HR teams plan the transition timeline and determines how much time is available for knowledge transfer and handover activities. Set Offboarding Exit Date Exit Date (Required): The specific date when the employee's employment will officially end. This date triggers various automated processes and determines when benefits, access, and other employment-related items should be terminated. Select Reason for Offboarding Reason for Offboarding: This dropdown field categorizes why the employee is leaving. Upload Resignation Letter Upload Resignation Letter: Attach the employee's formal resignation letter or termination documentation. This creates a digital record of the formal departure documentation for legal and compliance purposes. Confirm Add Offboardee Confirm initiates the offboarding process with the entered information, creating the offboarding record. Cancel Add Offboardee Cancel discards the form without creating an offboarding record, returning to the previous screen. Prevent Duplicate Offboarding Note: If any offboarding is raised previously by the member or added by the admin, and thereafter not cancelled or rejected, then raising a duplicate offboarding request will be restricted.

Admin | Offboarding – Approve, Track & Finalize Departures (Part 2 of 2: Checklist Management, Status Updates & Finalization)

View Offboarding Checklist View Details allows you to access comprehensive information about a specific offboardee's departure process. The checklist added by the administrator is displayed in the details section. Add Custom Checklist Task Administrators can add a custom checklist by clicking the Add Custom Task button, which opens the Add Task modal. 1. Click Add Custom Task. 2. Select the Offboardee. 3. Enter the Task Name. 4. Add an attachment if required. 5. Configure Verify Upon Completion if applicable. 6. Configure Set Start Date if required. 7. Click Add. Select Offboardee for Custom Task Offboardee (dropdown): Lets you select which departing employee this task should be assigned to, linking the task to a specific offboarding case. Enter Custom Task Name Task Name (Required): A text field where you enter the specific task description, such as "Return laptop," "Complete knowledge transfer," "Submit final timesheet," or "Clear security access." Add Task Attachment Attachment: Allows you to attach relevant documents, forms, or instructions related to the task, via the + Upload File button. Configure Verify Upon Completion Verify Upon Completion: When enabled, this option adds an extra layer of oversight, requiring additional verification or approval before the task is marked as complete for critical offboarding tasks. Configure Task Start Date Set Start Date: Specify when this task should become active/available to work on, rather than making it immediately available. When enabled, the following timing fields appear: - Number field: numeric value for the timing calculation. - Time unit dropdown: e.g., Day(s). - Before/After: whether the task should start before or after the reference point. - Reference point: e.g., Exit Date — the anchor date for the timing calculation. Schedule Task Relative to Exit Date Documented example: "1" Day(s) "Before" "Exit Date" — meaning the task will start 1 day before the employee's exit date. Add Custom Task Add creates the task with the specified configuration and adds it to the selected offboardee's task list. Cancel Custom Task Creation Cancel discards the form without creating the task and returns to the previous screen. Add Note to Offboarding Task Add Note allows you to attach text-based notes or comments to the current offboarding task or employee record — useful for adding context, instructions, progress updates, or Note reminders. Add Attachment to Offboarding Task Add Attachment enables you to upload and attach files or documents to the current task or item. Delete Custom Checklist Task Delete Custom Checklist allows you to remove the current custom checklist item entirely from the system. Save Offboarding Work as Draft Save as Draft allows saving work in progress without finalizing it. Understand Offboarding Statuses The source documents the following statuses: - Active - In Progress - Pending - Pending Review - Completed Update Offboarding Status This modal dialog allows HR administrators to manually change an employee's current offboarding status. 1. Select Status (Required — red asterisk): choose from all available offboarding statuses. 2. Click Update to apply the status change. 3. Alternatively, click Cancel to discard the change, or the Close (X) button to exit without making changes. Note: The required field validation ensures that a valid status is always selected before the update can be applied. Click on Initiate Offboarding button as a primary action button to start new offboarding processes. Understand In Progress Status After Initiate Offboarding is clicked, the status changes from Active to In Progress. The admin should monitor checklist completion in real-time by tracking individual task status changes. For critical offboarding processes, verification steps may be implemented before final completion, and some tasks may require supervisor approval or HR validation before being marked as truly complete. Understand Pending Status Pending is the initial status when an offboarding case is created but tasks are still in progress. Employees in this status have active departure processes with outstanding items that need completion. Understand Pending Review Status Pending Review indicates that an offboarding case or specific task has been completed by the assignee but requires verification, approval, or assessment by a supervisor, HR administrator, or other authorized personnel before being marked as fully complete. Set Completed Status Updating the status to Completed indicates that all offboarding requirements have been satisfied and the employee's departure process is finalized. Close Button (X) Located in the top-right corner, this closes the dialog without making any changes to the current status Cancel Status Update The Cancel button discards any changes and closes the dialog without updating the employee's status, returning to the previous screen. Validate Required Status A valid status must be selected (indicated by a red asterisk) before the update can be applied, maintaining data integrity within the offboarding workflow. Finish Offboarding The prominent Finish Offboarding button allows manual status transitions when appropriate, providing flexibility for handling exceptions or special circumstances that may not follow standard automated workflows. Click Finish Offboarding to finish the offboarding of the employee after completing all the checklist items for offboarding. Confirm Finish Offboarding 1. Click Finish Offboarding. 2. A confirmation pop-up modal appears. 3. Review the warning: the employee will lose all login privileges and ability to interact with the HR system. 4. Click Confirm to finish offboarding. Once Finish Offboarding is confirmed, the employee's offboarding is completed. Understand Finish Offboarding Impact After confirmation: - Active removal: The profile disappears from active employee lists and directories. - Archival access: The profile remains accessible for historical reference, compliance, and reporting purposes. - Segregated storage: Offboarded users are maintained separately from active employees, preventing confusion while preserving records. Understand Offboarded User Archive Once confirmed, the employee transitions from being an active employee with system privileges to being a historical record in the offboarded users archive. This ensures clean separation between current and former employees while maintaining necessary records for compliance, reference, and potential future rehiring scenarios. Note: The source describes "potential future rehiring scenarios" as a reason records are retained, not as a confirmed automatic restore/rehire feature. No automatic restoration functionality is documented. Understand Finality of Finish Offboarding Note: Finish Offboarding represents the point of no return in the offboarding process. This step causes complete system access revocation for the employee. The dialog's design emphasizes the permanence of this action through clear warning language and prominent visual confirmation of the affected employee. Export Offboarding Data An Export option is available for offboarding data, allowing you to extract employee departure information for reporting, compliance, and analysis purposes. Note: The source describes CSV as the export format and generically mentions that such exports "typically include fields like employee names, departure dates, offboarding status, assigned tasks, and completion tracking." This is described in general terms in the source rather than as a confirmed, exact field list — treat the specific field set as illustrative rather than guaranteed.

Employee | Offboarding – Request My Departure

Employee → Offboarding Overview Offboarding requests are the formal initiation of an employee's departure process from an organization. This process involves multiple stakeholders and automated workflows to ensure a smooth, compliant, and secure transition. Understand Offboarding Process Based on the source article, the employee-facing flow is: 1. Request Offboarding via My Profile. 2. Enter departure information (notice period, exit date, reason, resignation statement). 3. Submit the request. 4. The request is reviewed and approved/declined by an administrator. 5. Offboarding details become available via View Details. 6. The employee may withdraw the request when circumstances change. 7. Offboarding tasks/checklist (added by the administrator) are associated with the departure. 8. The administrator finishes the offboarding process once requirements are satisfied. Request Offboarding 1. Navigate to the My Profile section. 2. Click the Action button. 3. Click Request Offboarding. 4. Complete the form that appears. 5. Submit the request. A Request Offboarding pop-up modal will appear, displaying the request form. Understand Request Offboarding Form The form includes: - Administrative Notice: A blue information banner stating "Changes to the notice period need to be approved by admin." - Manager: The respective manager's name, used for approval workflow routing and stakeholder notification. - Notice Period (Required): The number of days defined in the user's work profile, establishing the mandatory waiting period between resignation submission and final exit date. - Estimated Exit Date (Required): The last working day, calculated as per the notice period; provides a timeline for offboarding activities and resource planning. - Propose New Date: Numerical input for a proposed timeline adjustment, a Select Type dropdown (days, weeks, months), and a specific calendar date picker for an alternative exit date. - Reason (Dropdown): Categorizes the type of departure (e.g., resignation, termination, retirement) for HR analytics and compliance reporting. - Resignation Statement (Text Area): Placeholder text reads "Please tell us why you're resigning from the company..."; captures a detailed explanation for the departure decision. - Submit Request: Finalizes and submits the offboarding request to the approval workflow. - Cancel: Abandons the current request without saving any information. View Assigned Manager Manager: Identifies the reporting manager or supervisor of the employee requesting offboarding; used for approval workflow routing and stakeholder notification. Understand Notice Period Notice Period (Required): The number of days defined in your work profile, specifying the standard notice period you must serve — establishing the mandatory waiting period between resignation submission and final exit date. Understand Estimated Exit Date Estimated Exit Date (Required): Your projected last working day, calculated based on the notice period, providing a timeline for offboarding activities and resource planning. Propose New Exit Date Propose New Date lets you request modifications to your standard exit timeline: - Unit field: numerical input for the proposed timeline adjustment. - Select Type dropdown: choose the time unit (days, weeks, months). - Date field: specific calendar date picker for the alternative exit date. Example: If you want to leave the organization early or late compared to your calculated exit date, you can request or propose a new exit date. Request Early Exit You can propose an earlier departure date using the Propose New Date fields. Note: A new exit date is subject to approval or rejection. Request Extended Exit Date You can similarly propose a later departure date using the Propose New Date fields. Note: A new exit date is subject to approval or rejection. Understand Exit Date Approval Note: Proposing a new date triggers the admin approval workflow for timeline changes. Changes to the notice period need to be approved by admin — proposed changes do not automatically become the approved exit date. Select Offboarding Reason Reason (Dropdown): Categorizes the type of departure (e.g., resignation, termination, retirement) for HR analytics and compliance reporting. Enter Resignation Statement Resignation Statement (Text Area): Captures a detailed explanation for your departure decision, providing feedback for organizational improvement and exit interview documentation. Submit Offboarding Request 1. Complete the required information in the form. 2. Review the request. 3. Click Submit Request. A request submission confirmation pop-up will appear after submitting the offboarding request. Cancel Offboarding Request Submission Cancel abandons the current request without saving any information. View Submitted Offboarding Details A details section page will appear, in the View Details section, with all the information of the offboarding request. Withdraw Offboarding Request Withdrawing or cancelling an offboarding request allows you to reverse the departure process when circumstances change. This functionality is essential when you decide to stay or when departure timelines need adjustment. Enter Withdrawal Reason 1. Provide a withdrawal reason. 2. Click the Withdraw button. Understand Offboarding Withdrawal Withdrawal can be used when: - You decide to stay with the company. - Departure circumstances change. - The offboarding timeline needs to be reversed. Note: The source does not document that withdrawal automatically restores every employee status or access; it describes withdrawal as reversing the departure process, without detailing every downstream system effect. View Offboarding Details The View Details section displays offboarding information, including: - Requester - Request Date - Manager - Date of Joining - Employment Type - Team - Job Title - Location - Initial Notice Period - Initial Exit Date - Proposed Notice Period - New Exit Date - Checklist/tasks - Offboarding status Understand Offboarding Status Statuses documented in the source that are relevant to your process: - Active - In Progress - Pending - Pending Review - Completed View Offboarding Checklist The checklist which was added by the administrator is displayed in the details section, showing the tasks associated with your departure. Complete Offboarding Task Note: The source describes checklist and task creation, assignment, and monitoring entirely from the administrator's side (via Control Center). It does not document a specific employee-facing control for marking a task as complete, so this is not represented as a confirmed employee capability here. Understand Task Verification Some tasks may require verification before being considered complete. Pending Review can indicate that verification/approval is required from a supervisor, HR administrator, or other authorized personnel — a specific verifier is not identified for every task. View Task Attachments Tasks may have supporting files, forms, or instructions attached that the assignee might need to complete the task successfully. Add Task Notes Note: Adding notes to offboarding tasks is described in the source as an action available from the administrative checklist/task management menu (Control Center). The source does not establish that non-admin employees have this capability, so it is classified as Admin-only rather than assumed for Employee. Understand Offboarding Completion The administrator finishes the offboarding process (Finish Offboarding) after all required checklist/offboarding requirements are completed. Understand System Access Revocation Once the administrator confirms Finish Offboarding: - System login privileges are revoked. - The employee is removed from active employee lists and directories. - The profile is retained as an archived/historical record, accessible for compliance and reference purposes. Note: This is an administrative finalization action — the employee does not perform this step themselves. Cannot Change Approved Exit Date Directly Note: Proposed exit-date changes are subject to administrative approval; you cannot change the approved exit date directly yourself. Cannot Finalize Offboarding Note: The employee does not perform the final Finish Offboarding action — this is an administrator-only step. Cannot Manage Other Employees Note: Administrative offboardee-management capabilities — such as adding an offboardee on someone else's behalf, managing the Offboardees list, or accessing another employee's full offboarding management view — are not documented as available to employees. Admin vs Employee → Offboarding Responsibility Summary Capabilities available to both roles: - Request own offboarding — Yes (Admin) / Yes (Employee) - View notice period / exit date — Yes (Admin) / Yes (Employee) - View offboarding details — Yes (Admin) / Yes (Employee) - View checklist — Yes (Admin) / Yes (Employee) Capabilities available to Admin only: - Add offboardee on behalf of others - Review, Accept, or Decline offboarding requests - Change the manager on a request - Approve an exit-date change - Add a checklist or custom task - Update the offboarding status - Cancel offboarding (the admin-side action, distinct from Employee withdrawal) - Finish offboarding - Export offboarding data - View the archived/offboarded record Capabilities available to Employee only: - Withdraw own offboarding request - Propose a new exit date (Admin involvement here is "as applicable," since approval of the proposal is an Admin action, not a competing right to originate the proposal) Shared action with different roles: - System access revocation via Finish Offboarding — the Admin performs this action; the Employee is the subject of it. Note: Where the source does not describe a capability for Employees (e.g., updating status, admin-style cancellation, export, or viewing the archived record), it is marked as not documented for Employee rather than assumed unavailable or available.
