Happy November ! Here comes another round of exciting updates from our Product team. Throughout the past few months, we have developed a brand new onboarding process for new hires within the Employee HUB, added absence management to flair's app, and improved a variety of features. So without further ado, let's dive into it!
For more frequent updates, and to be the first one to take advantage of our new features subscribe to our change log. And of course, feel free to reach out on our Roadmap if you have any feedback or ideas!
Brand New Workflows & Onboarding
We are very proud to announce that this month we have released flair's Workflows. We have improved the visualisation of multiple workflows including the new onboarding to bring more transparency and efficiency to the HR processes. With our new workflow feature you will be able to assign specific tasks that require execution and tracking to managers, performance managers, or a desired team/employee. Meanwhile, From the perspective of Salesforce, you will find a table containing the most relevant information about each task. In this way, you will easily identify problems and check the progress at any time.
So now that we have introduced flair's new workflows, let's dive into the brand new onboarding! Our new users of flair will get a brand new welcoming experience on our Employee HUB! As the new user enters flair's HUB, they will see a welcome banner and an assigned workflow with a list of task to lead them throughout their onboarding plan.
During the onboarding process, it’s quite frequent that your HR department needs some data requests from new employees. In order to make this process easier, we enabled a new component, which allows to specifically ask for a document from the employee.
Absence Management: Improvements
When it comes to Absence Management there are various things that have been improved over the last month. Firstly there is a new way to manage your absence settings such as categories, policies and assigned employees. With our new 3-panel layout, HR managers will be able to have a better absence management overview. Each panel represents absence category, policy of selected category and an assigned employee. Now, managing specific absence types will be much more efficient since you can assign it to to multiple employees all at once!
Additionally, we have improved the absence overview to show absence category chart, yearly absence distribution and an absence overview table. Now, HR managers are be able to have all absence data in one place. Meanwhile, we have also updated unlimited absence overview, in order to ensure managers the full picture of unlimited absences used throughout the year.
Mobile App: Absence Management
This month we have also released absences feature on our mobile app - from now on you can check your upcoming absences, view available vacations days and request time-off wherever you are, whenever you want.
Employee HUB: New
You asked - we delivered! From now on, it's possible to completely customise the "Personal data" page by adding related lists within the Employee HUB.
As we add more customisation, cycles become more flexible and can be used for different purposes. We now added a component that lets you determine whether you want to require a meeting or not to finish with the process.
Your input is vital to the development of the flair product. That's why we're happy to share our roadmap with you. A clear and accessible resource that provides an inside look into our product plans and lets you request features and leave feedback.
As work patterns continue to evolve, it is harder for traditional HR processes to meet the demands of employees and employers. Utilizing Salesforce, HR teams can streamline processes and future-proof the workplace as employment changes.
