Employment Documentation - How to create from the Employee Record

Overview

Documents can be created directly within a candidate, contractor or employee record.  We do however strongly recommend that you refrain from using this method as the workflow method ensures that your business is compliant and meets best practice standards.

Process

Please note that this example provides instructions on how to create an employment contract via an employee record. The same instructions can be followed to create all employment documentation via any record within Citation HR Software. The steps will vary however the concept of following the prompts are the same.

 

1. Select the “Employee” tab from the Employee Management module.
