On/Offboarding Tab Overview
If you have already created your on/offboarding tasks and organized corresponding templates now, it's time to see them in use.
You will find the On/Offboarding tab in your employees' profiles, depending on the views and actions permissions they are assigned to.
Here you can easily add new onboarding/offboarding, track the progress of all onboarding and offboarding processes, identify overdue tasks, and discover who is responsible for completing them.
Tip: Access to the onboarding/offboarding sections is managed in the Settings → Roles and Permissions → User Roles section. To learn more about user role permissions and how to configure them, see Configuring User Role Permissions article.
