People and Culture - Tasks and Notifications Widget

The Tasks and Notifications Widget for People and Culture allows the People and Culture user to have access to "Team Dashboards" to receive, send and interact with "Quick Tasks" and automatically triggered workflows based on all people. These Task and Notification items are also delivered into the System "Inbox." "Quick Tasks" can be sent from the Quick Tasks Wizard, or from the "Tasks and Notifications" Widget itself. If a Manager has Delegated their Tasks and Notifications to System Administration Users/People & Culture Users , People & Culture Users will see those Tasks and Notifications in this Widget.

Because the number of notifications can be quite high (especially for Managers and System Administrators/People & Culture Users), notifications emails (that go to the User's email inbox) have to be manually activated via System settings. However, all notifications (for tasks and reminders) will appear in the online/System "Inbox" for each User. This Inbox can be accessed via the envelope in the top right-hand corner of the System, next to the User's name and photo. Alternatively, Users can choose to activate a "Summary" email to their email Inbox (see below for instructions).

Note: Tasks & Notifications will appear in this Widget in the following manner:

• My Info Dashboard- Users see Tasks & Notifications that relate to them as an Employee only.
• Manager Dashboard - Users see Tasks & Notifications that relate to their role as a Manager. Therefore only Tasks & Notifications for actions the Manager needs to take in relation to their Team Members appear in the Widget on this Dashboard.
• People & Culture Dashboard - Users see Tasks & Notifications that relate to them as a People & Culture User. Therefore Tasks & Notifications related to their management of all appear in the Widget on this Dashboard.

People & Culture - Company Policies Widget

The People & Culture Company Policies Widget allows HR/People & Culture Managers to access their Team's Company Policy Activity. The HR/People & Culture Manager can search for a Team Member and then use Filters to see which Company Policies Need to be attended to. Managers can Resend a notification to an Employee if that person has unopened/unread policies. The Company Policy Widget respects the User Group Permissions on the person accessing the system.

NOTE: Company Policies can be associated with 'Jobs,' 'Departments,' or 'Locations,' although Jobs are the primary association used. If a Job you're creating for a New Employee for doesn't have (a) Company Policy/(ies) assigned to it, you will not be able to complete this step and will be required to send Company Policies later via the Widget (from the 'No Policies Tab). It is therefore recommended that Users create and assign (a) Company Policy/(ies) to the Job (or Department/Location) via the Company Policies Wizard before you create a New Employee and place them in a Job.
