The Offboarding Workflows feature lets admins create workflows to automate the sending of an exit survey when you offboard an employee from your platform. This feature follows a "when-if-then" sequence for every step of the workflow. To learn more about this and see examples, please refer to The When-If-Then sequence and scenarios tab in the Further information section of this article.

Further information
The Leave WorkFlows feature lets you create a set of steps that the HR platform will take regarding leave request approvals. Each step follows the When-If-Then sequence, which is like this:
-
When this happens -> If this condition is met -> Then do this.
- "When" is the situation that will trigger the workflow.
- "If" is the condition that decides what action should be taken.
- "Then" is the action that the platform will take.
To visualise this better, please see the examples below. "X" and "Y" in these scenarios refer to values you can pick and enter on the HR platform.
- When an employee submits a leave request, If the leave hours is more than "X", Then the leave request will be sent to the executive leadership team for approval.
- When an employee submits a leave request, If the leave hours is more than "X", Then the leave request will be automatically declined.
- When an employee submits a leave request, If the leave request comment contains "christmas", Then the leave request will be automatically approved.
- When an employee submits a leave request, If start date is after "X" AND end date is before "Y", Then the leave request will be automatically approved.
When you click the "IF" field when creating a workflow, the "Add conditions" panel will slide out. There, you will have to fill in the following: Field, Condition, and Value.
Below those is the Add condition button, which lets you set up an additional condition to come with the first one. When you click this button, you will be asked to choose between:
- And condition - This means the platform will take action only if BOTH the original and additional conditions are met.
- Or condition - This means the platform will take action if EITHER the original or additional condition is met.
To demonstrate this, here are some examples:
And condition:
For the image below, the platform will act only if the leave request falls between 15/02/2024 and 22/02/2024 AND has a category of Annual Leave. The platform will not take the specified action in the "THEN" field if both are not met, even if one of the conditions is followed.
Or condition:
For the image below, the platform will take action if the leave request falls between 15/02/2024 and 22/02/2024 OR is filed by employee Armin Jaeger.
There just needs to be at least one condition met for the platform to act. So, the workflow will still function if two, three, or more conditions were met.
For our example, this means the workflow will act if the leave request falls between the date range provided, even if a different employee filed it. The platform will also function if employee Armin Jaeger filed the request, even if the request falls outside the date range provided.
