In this release we have implemented a number of extensions to existing functionalities, these are listed below. Furthermore, there are also minor bug fixes in this release.
Admin
- On the detail screens (which are in the new layout) we added who created the record and who last modified it.
Personnel administration
- We have changed and expanded the item "Attachments" that was under the tab "Job" in the personnel file of an employee.
- This can now be found as a separate menu item "Documents" at the top of the personnel file of an employee.
- New documents can be added to the employee from there, furthermore a document can also be linked to a section, i.e. employee contract, suspension/absence and side activity. After selecting the section, you can also link it to the correct record of that section. Depending on your access rights and available data, you will be able to select these sections and records. You can also add new documents directly from these sections by navigating to the correct record of that section.
- The management of the file categories has also been changed, a category now no longer has a mandatory object as before. Via "advanced" it is possible to link a standard category to the different sections (formerly objects).
Training
- When a room is indicated in the "Dates" tab of a training session, it will also be added to the location field of the Outlook Meeting Request. This will not be added to the text when using the tag #LOCATION#.
Mobile app
Our mobile app, which can be found in the Google Play Store and Apple Store, has also received a number of extensions in addition to the expense and leave modules.
-
My profile
- We have placed the "personal data" tab of the employee from the web version in the mobile version.
- An employee can not only consult his own personal data, but also change some data. This does depend strongly on the access rights and the configuration.
-
Documents
- We have also made the "attachments" tab of the employee from the employee profile of the web version available in the mobile version.
-
Training
- The overview of the employee's training courses is the same as on the web version with "to be scheduled", "planned" and "history".
- You can also register for available catalog training courses via the mobile app. Requesting external and informal training courses can only be done via the web version.
- The employee can also consult and follow up his training counters.
- An employee can also cancel a planned training course, but other functionalities such as following an e-learning or uploading an attendance certificate are only available via the web version.
You can log in in the same way as on the computer. If you are still unable to do so or you do not see the various modules or options, you can contact your contact person at BCS Epowerhr or our helpdesk via https://epowerhr.bcs.nl/hc/nl/requests/new.
Our mobile app is only aimed to use as an employee and has no additional functionalities as a manager or administrator, for this the web version must be used via the computer.
