An onboarding checklist is a way for hiring managers to organise the steps involved in guiding new hires through their first days at thier company. The Onboarding Checklist feature allows an admin to create a group of tasks that they can activate when they onboard an employee. The feature also allows you to edit, clone, and delete individual onboarding tasks and to delete any previously created onboarding checklists.

Important

Checklists by location and/or a specific employee is not possible; only via teams is currently possible.

Availability

HR Plan:   Premium   Platinum
  User Access:   Employee         Manager         Admin      

  We base the default access level on a per user basis and whether they have  view,  edit and  delete access and excluding any changes made via our Custom Security feature.
