  1. language

    Could we add Language in Employee Access as a field that connects to the Language field in Profile? And, also make it a field that an employee can request to change?

    Thank you for submitting this idea request. We have a clarifying question before we can proceed reviewing it:

    We need to better understand what you want the checkbox to do. Do you this checkbox to pull from the sick bank profile with the HR side? Or, do you want to donate time to the sick bank?

    Thank you!

  3. Employee Access -Employee Deductions and Benefits

    I wish there was a way for employees to view their current deductions and benefits in Employee Access outside of having to always look at their last paycheck. This could be under Employee Access, Employee Information, Payroll. There could be a deductions section and a benefits section. Then if this was possible, we could pull this into our Open Enrollment custom forms each year as that is a popular question from employees during this time, what benefits do I currently have?

  4. Ability to submit time off requests to mulitple supervisors at one time

    When an employee has an assignment at more than one building they have the option to choose which supervisor to submit the time off request to, however, at this time they can only choose one or the other. They do not have the option to submit the time off request to both supervisors at one time. I think the option to submit to both supervisors at one time for each of the buildings would be a nice add-in.

  5. Employee Usernames

    Contact Access- Setup- Configuration- Employee Users

    Please add a space position as an option for part 2 of the login format, so user names can be first name, space, last name. Currently I have to manually add the space before emailing the account re-set link to new hires.

  6. Employee Access: Staff to View One Page Calendar (PDF)

    We have over 70 employee assignment calendars in our district. Staff can activate their assignment calendar from the Calendar area and view it month by month but what we would find extremely helpful is the ability for staff to view the one page PDF view of their calendar. Perhaps it could be added as a link on the Set Calendar Display Options screen. Or, I could see this as an option under the Personnel tab or as a drill down feature when looking at their Assignment. After expanding the assignment, I can see the calendar name listed under Term Information.…

  7. Add Name ID to the Application Information in Employee Access|FastTrack Screener|Open Applications|View Application Information

    Add Name ID to the Application Information in Employee Access|FastTrack Screener|Open Applications|View Application Information and Employee Access|FastTrack Screener|Applications by Position|View Applications|View Application Information. We are currently usingFileBound's Connect to store all of our HR documentation. We integrate on the Employee ID. This would allow our hiring managers to review current employee applicants' HR records without having to make a trip to the central office.
    This has already been added to Human Resources|Employee Administration|FastTrack|Applicants|Application Information, but our Hiring Managers do not have rights to this area. Please see attached.
