New Hire Defaults

MAIN MENU >   Employee > New Hire Defaults

You can configure one or more New Hire Default settings that will be available during creation of a new employee profile. These default values automatically load into the appropriate tabs, and the data entry process for each new employee becomes more efficient and less time consuming.

New Hire Defaults feature includes: Employee Identification, Contact Information, Hierarchy, Tax/Deductions, Preferences, and Notifications. Although the values in all the fields are default settings, you can change them when you create a new employee profile or edit an existing employee's profile.

To view these default settings:

  • Click Employee, then click New Hire Defaults in the main menu.

 

New Hire Defaults Tab
FIELD DESCRIPTION
Display Order If you have more than one New Hire Default this field determines the order the New Hire Default templates appear in the list. Lesser numbers appear at the top of the list and the first item on the list will be used, unless another is selected.
Created By If you have more than one New Hire Default this field is used to determine permissions.

For example, if a supervisor has permission to create employee profiles for a particular branch, you can add a New Hire Default for that branch, Created By the branch supervisor, then the branch supervisor can only use the New Hire Defaults assigned to them.
