Module: Leave and Attendance Module

A new feature that has been released in Leave and attendance is the attendance cut. If the attendance cut off is set as “x” days from the attendance month, it is possible to set up that users will not be able to apply for Out on Work or Past Attendance for the previous attendance month. This will restrict the users from regularizing the attendance post the payroll cut off period. 

A message will be displayed for the users stating that Out on Work and Past Attendance cannot be applied for after the cutoff date.

Similarly it is possible to set up that cancellation of the Out on Work and Past Attendance requests cannot be done after “x” days of attendance cut off. The users will not be allowed to cancel the Out on work and past attendance requests that were created for the previous attendance month. 

Please get in touch with the EmployWise Support team to get this feature configured for your organization.

Module: Talent Acquisition Module

1. Introduction of new approver in the RFR Approval Workflow

In the hiring process of an employee, there can be upto six levels of approval for a Request for Recruitment (RFR). Each approver can be selected from the available options as per the company policy. The new addition to the existing  list of possible approvers is the HRBP. The HRBP who can be assigned in the user permissions to any of the HR users as per company, business unit, locations, etc can now be made an approver in the approval of RFR. 

The system will intelligently map the HRBP and trigger the approval to the relevant HR user as per the combination of business unit, location, company, etc which are assigned to the respective HRBPs. The HRBP can now be an RFR approver. With this functionality, HRBPs will be able to closely monitor the Talent Acquisition Process making relevant changes whenever deemed necessary.

Module: Employee Separation Module

1. Asset Management linked to Clearances in Separation 

In the asset management module, assets and the issuers are predefined in the application. These can be defined as per companies, business units, locations, or any other organisation structure parameter. New and existing employees can be issued these assets by the asset owners, which in turn need to be confirmed by the employee (of their receipt) Additionally, in the EmployWise employee separation module, a set of clearance tasks are defined and mapped to the respective clearance owners for an update at the pre-set timelines. 

The enhancement to the above two existing functionalities is the assets which are issued to the employee and not returned by them can now be configured as clearance tasks in which case during the exit of an employee, the asset owners will get a trigger to clear the task by acknowledging the return of the asset by the employee in the application. This will be automated once configured for all employees during their exit who have been issued assets but not returned. 

Please get in touch with the EmployWise Support team to get this feature configured for your organization.

Module: Employee Separation Module

1. Each Clearance Task updates recorded with date and time

In the EmployWise employee separation module, a set of clearance tasks are defined and mapped to the respective clearance owners for an update at the pre-set timelines. The enhancement to this functionality is that the system will now capture and display the date and time of the status update of each clearance task along with the owner name.

This will create a log in the clearance task list for the employees and their EROs to refer to, and check in case of any changes to the status of the tasks

This feature is available to all accounts subscribed to the separation module, please get in touch with the EmployWise Support team for further details.

2. Termination Cases can have a different notice period set-up

Termination cases in the separation module can now have different set-up in terms of number of notice period days, option to recover and waive a notice period shortfall, and an option to include the termination reckoning date to compute notice given or not.

This feature will give an option to configure rules for termination cases that may differ from resignation to give the flexibility for handling both cases and computing the notice period days, waiver, recovery and shortfall differently.

Please get in touch with the EmployWise Support team to get this feature configured for your organization.

Module: Leave and Attendance Module 

1. Leave Name displayed in the calendar view

The Calendar view of an employee reflects the rosters, holidays and the weekly offs. If an employee is on leave for a particular day, that day will be shown as leave in the employee’s calendar. 

The current enhancement is that the type of leave the user has availed will be displayed in the calendar view. If it is a Sick Leave the calendar will capture it as Leave (SL). The short name of the leave type will be displayed in the calendar view.

This enhancement helps the HR or Managers to view the leave type on the Calendar view, rather than selecting the leave date and viewing it in the details view.

Please get in touch with the EmployWise Support team to get this feature configured for your organization.

Module: Performance

Enhancement of Team Plans and My Plan Views:

1. New Column and Filters Tab added 

In the EmployWise Performance Management module, on going to Team Plans or My Plans we have a new view interface with the Column and Filters tab on the right side of the screen. These features can be expanded or closed to give a simplistic view. Using the Columns Tab you can select the data according to all employee information.

Multiple feature selection is also possible with changes happening in real time as selection is made.

2. Sorting and Shifting Columns

Now you can Sort the data according to your preference. The view has the option of sorting data of any one column at a time or sorting data with multiple columns just by pressing SHIFT+ Column to sort data across different columns.

Shifting Columns feature will give an option to configure performance data by shifting a column across individually.

3. Filters Tab 

In the EmployWise Performance Management module, on going to Team Plan or My Plan we have a new interface with the Column and Filters tab on the right side of the screen. These features can be expanded or closed to give a simplistic view. Using the Filters Tab you can filter the data according to all employee information. Ex. Filter the data according to Period and changes happen in real time

4. Row Groups

This feature will give an option to configure performance data by grouping the data according to your preference. Just Drag(Using the dots) and drop Features from the list into the Row Groups to make changes. All changes happen in real time. We can have multiple features to group the data.

5. Pivot Mode

Pivoting allows you to take column values and turn them into Pivot Tables. Pivot mode is required to be turned on for pivoting to work. When the grid is in pivot mode, the following will happen:

• Only columns with Group, Pivot, or Value active will be included in the grid.

• Only aggregated rows will be shown, the lowest level rowData will not be displayed.

If pivot mode is off, then adding or removing pivot columns will have no effect. Pivoting is expected to be used with aggregation. If you turn a column into a pivot column, you must have at least one aggregation (value) active for the configuration to make sense.

6. Aggregation

When grouping, you can apply an aggregation function to any column to populate the group row with values. You can pick from the grid's built-in aggregation functions.

Built-In Functions: Out of the box the grid provides sum, min, max, count, avg, first, last. Aggregation functions are provided with an array of values that it should aggregate into one value that it then returns.

These features implemented in the My Plans and Team Plans Views are available to all accounts subscribed to the PMS module, please get in touch with the EmployWise Support team for further details.
