Adding a New Hire

OnboardCentric makes adding a new user to the system quick and simple by clicking the Work With menu icon and selecting the Users Dashboard.

OnboardCentric will then display the Standard Tab where the new employee's basic information is entered. You may save each section as you go, or wait until you have completed each tab. If you are adding an existing employee, make sure to check the box for 'This is an existing employee.' This will allow you to enter a new user, without having any of the typical new hire onboarding tasks assigned to that person. You may save each section as you go, or wait until you have completed all tabs.

The FlexFields Tab will display your company's customized choices to fit what drives your hiring needs. This can be location, employment status, division, or any other component that organizes your staff. It is imperative to select the proper options from the drop-downs in order to assign the proper forms to your employee.

The next sections are the Views Tab, Admin Tab, and Roles Tab. These tabs are only available full system administrators. Please refer to this page if you are a full administrator and are adding a new hire with administrative permissions.

You have now created a new hire in OnboardCentric and your employee will receive an email invitation to the system.

When viewing the employee's user profile, you will notice two red messages. Both indicate that the new hire has been invited but has not clicked on the hyperlink in their emailed invitation and that their contact information has not been entered. These messages will disappear once the new hire clicks on their link in the email and completes their personal profile information.
