Manage Employee Lifecycle

Lifecycle tools cover hire through exit: onboarding checklists, probation decisions, appraisal cycles, and resignation with clearance and exit interview.

Onboarding

  1. Go to HRMS → Onboarding.
  2. Create or edit a template with dynamic tasks — name, category, due days, owner, and whether the task is mandatory.
  3. Assign tasks to new hires when you create the employee or by applying a template.
  4. Track each task as pending, in progress, completed, or skipped.

You can also review assigned tasks on the employee’s Onboarding tab.

Probation

  1. Go to HRMS → Probation.
  2. Review employees on probation and their end dates.
  3. Extend, confirm (with a performance rating), or terminate as appropriate.

Keep the employee status in sync with the probation outcome so directory and reports stay accurate.

Performance appraisals

  1. Go to HRMS → Performance.
  2. Create an appraisal cycle (name and period dates) while it is still draft.
  3. Open the cycle and generate appraisals for active employees.
  4. Managers rate goals (with weights) and provide an overall rating; employees can add self comments where enabled.
  5. The employee acknowledges the completed review.
  6. HR closes the cycle when work is finished.

Cycle status typically moves draft → open → in review → closed.

Resignation and exit

  1. Go to HRMS → Resignation/Exit.
  2. Move the resignation through the pipeline: Submitted → Under Review → Accepted → Relieved (or Rejected / Withdrawn).
  3. Complete the exit clearance checklist by department.
  4. Assigned assets are added to clearance automatically when resignation is accepted — see Track employee assets and credentials.
  5. Record the exit interview (date, interviewer, notes) on the resignation details page.
  6. Track relieved date and settlement steps your process requires.

:::warning Clearance before relieve Don’t mark someone Relieved until clearance tasks — especially returned assets — are complete. That keeps accountability and avoids orphaned equipment. :::
