- Renaming
Changes to the personal data are possible at any time. These are immediately visible to everyone and are also updated in the employee portal. Onboardees are thus correctly addressed at all times. - Deletion
Onboardings can be deleted at any time. However, you may lose your reporting as a result. Although it is possible to keep statistical data, experience has shown that this is not sufficient in many cases.We therefore recommend ending or pausing onboarding. You can access the buttons via the gear symbol in onboarding. In the onboarding overview on the Onboardings page, these onboardings are no longer displayed, as they are always filtered by active onboardings first.
How our customers use this
In addition to the Onboardings page, which shows an overview of all onboardings and current tasks, onboarding itself is the linchpin of the entire onboarding process for you. The individual onboardings are called up just as often, data is checked, new data is added and access to the employee portal is granted or withdrawn.
