How to Setup the Relationship/Supervisors for Employees?

1. Manually By System

  • Go to Staff --> Placement --> Open the Placement --> Relationship --> Add New

  • Approval sequence is the approval order for the application, e.g: 1 for the first approver, 2 for the second approver and so on......

    • If there is only one approver for this placement, set 1 at the approval sequence for one approver
    • If there are two approvers  for this placement, and the application can be approved by either of them, set 1 at the approval sequence for both approvers 
    • If there are two approvers for this placement, and the application needs to be approved by two approvers with fixed order, set 1 at the approval sequence for the first approver, and 2 for the second approver.

2. Through Importing

  • Go to Staff -> Placement -> Export 
  • Open the file -> Go to the sheet "Supervisor" -> Follow the format and fill in the information 
    • Delete other excel sheets if you do not update other information
    • Columns "AssociateName" and "SupervisorName" can be deleted
      • The supervisor can be bulk deleted through importing by putting "Y" in the column "Delete"
  • Import the file by going to Placement
