The challenge of hiring new employees increases every year. New rules, regulations, technology complexity, and different business locations add up to more work for HR, IT, and other support staff. For the new employee, this means longer on-ramp times. SP Onboarding leverages Office 365 and SharePoint in a Digital Workplace to streamline the process across functional areas and enhance communication with new employees.
As an integral addition to SP HR Portal, SP Onboarding is a SharePoint employee onboarding template that provides tools and resources to automate the onboarding process. Human resources staff can create sets of task templates for onboarding by role, location, job, or other category. These are predefined tasks assigned to functional areas and individuals to go beyond HR tasks to cover everything from IT setup to security card registration.

To start the onboarding process, just create an onboarding record where information and documents are required by each functional area for new employees. Next, choose the task template that fits the situation and link it to the onboarding tracking record. Once applied, all functional areas involved will receive automatic email notifications letting them know they have been assigned onboarding tasks. As the tasks are updated and completed, human resources staff can track progress from onboarding reports. When a task becomes overdue, automatic reminders are generated by emails or alerts.
Empower new employees with self-service functions from the New Hire Portal. Here new employees can access information about the business, documents, and self-service tasks. In the New Hire Portal, employees can enter their information, access and submit documents, and access links to sign up for benefits from third-party sites. Task owners from around the business can update a task status from the Employee Portal, and managers can track how new employees are progressing with the onboarding process from the Managers Portal.
SP Onboarding is not just for new employees but for any change in employment that requires a checklist of tasks. Use SP Onboarding for terminations, layoffs, and transfers. SP Onboarding is an integrated workplace application, a SharePoint employee onboarding template, that can be accessed from SP HR Portal, and it leverages powerful tools like Skype for Business and Power BI to see metrics in a dashboard. Help new employees quickly become more engaged and productive by providing them with the resources and information they need to be a success. At the same time, provide a cross-functional structure for managing the onboarding process to be more efficient and effective by leveraging a Digital Workplace.
