New Employee Wizard

The New Employee Wizard is one of the most important Wizards available, from the "START" option. The New Employee Wizard manages Applicant, New Employee from Scratch, Onboarding, Crossboarding, Offboarding and assigning of attributes to the new person. For example, you can assign Jobs, Salary, Working Hours, Company Property, Manager and User Group.

Please note, the steps in the Wizard are not Mandatory. The reason for this is that if you don't have the information at hand to complete the selection you can still proceed and create the basic Employee Record. Mandatory fields doe exist against some of the forms.

NOTE: The New Employee Wizard may appear slightly differently to what is outlined below if you have installed a Payroll App (and have therefore integrated with a Payroll Solution). The differences will be App/Payroll Solution specific and will appear as extra Step/s in the New Employee Wizard. All extra Steps/fields will appear at the appropriate/relevant place in the Wizard and will be self-explanatory/relevant to Payroll fields for that PayrollApp/Solution integration only.


New Employee Wizard Navigation Functionality

There are multiple navigation options available to you throughout the New Employee Wizard. These navigation options are outlined below.

  1. START - the "START" button at the top right-hand side of the Dashboard [The top right of your screen] is how you launch all Wizards. Click "Start" and this will launch a Wizard popup window containing a navigation menu. This is where all your Wizard interaction options exist. The Wizards available to you in this menu are based on your Permissions.
  2. View - to View a particular Wizard click on the downward pointing arrow on the right-hand side of the menu. Scroll down, choose the Wizard you want to View, then click 'Select.'
  3. Select - select enables you to choose (and move into) your chosen Wizard (from the main Wizard dropdown menu).
  4. Create New - allows you to create a New Record within a particular Wizard (where relevant).
  5. Create - allows you to 'save' a New Record you've created.
  6. Edit - allows you to Edit a Record.
  7. Save - allows you to Save a Record.
  8. Delete - allows you to Delete a Record.
  9. Previous - allows you to go back one step.
  10. Clear - allows you to clear content from the form fields in a Wizard. Note: clicking clear will remove the content from ALL the fields in that Wizard.
  11. Submit - allows you to Submit the data or Record/s you've added into a Wizard.
  12. Close - allows you to Close the Wizard you've been working in. Note: Closing a Wizard before completing it will result in a loss of the data you've input into data fields. You will be shown a popup window with a warning asking you to confirm your action before the data is lost.
  13. Search - a Search window will appear in the top right corner of the Wizard popup if relevant (E.G. Where there is a list of Folders within a Wizard). Search enables you to search for a specific Folder within a Wizard.
  14. Next - to navigate through items in a drop-down menu, click on the downward pointing arrow on the right-hand side of the menu. Scroll down, choose the item you want, then click 'Next' to progress to the next window.
  15. Breadcrumbs - on the bottom left of the Wizard popup window, you will see a 'Breadcrumb' (for example 'Start > My Info'). This Breadcumb enables you to go back to previous steps in the process by clicking on your preferred choice. Breadcrumbs give you more flexibility about which stage of the Wizard you want to 'go back' to (E.G. it is more flexible than just choosing 'Previous' which limits you to going back only one step in the process).

NOTE: There is a 6MB file limit on all files that are uploaded into Subscribe-HR's Team Dashboards System. Please ensure that large files are compressed/reduced and that the file size is less than 6MB (the smaller the file size, the better).
