- Click on the 'documents' tab - all of the person's existing files (folders) will be listed.
How to create a new file
- Click 'Add folder' (on the left of the screen).
- Choose the name of the folder using the drop-down menu and click 'Add'.
- Add any documents you want to keep in the folder, either by browsing for them or dragging and dropping them.
How to make files available for employee self-service
All files (folders) that an employee can access in self-service will be marked with green text stating the person can see it.
Employment agreements and performance reviews are visible by default as the employee needs to use these from the start of employment. All other folders must be made visible by an owner or manager.
To make a folder visible (available for employee self-service):
- Click on the folder.
- Under the folder name it will state the employee cannot see the file.
- Click 'Show'.
Note: Folders can be made invisible by following the same process and clicking 'Hide'.
