When a new employee enters your organization, of course you want to start monitoring his or her skills as soon as possible. Just a few small steps in AG5 and you will be able to do just that!Please note: If AG5 is connected with your HR system for importing employees, we do not recommend to manually create employees in AG5 as these are automatically created if created within your HR system.Creating an employeeGo to the Employee tab - On top of your screen, first, navigate to the Employee tab where you will see the list of all the employees already known in the system.Click on the Create employee button - After clicking this button, you will see a window where you can enter some basic data about your employee.Enter Basic data and Click on Save - Most of the fields are self-explanatory. Just a few remarks: If you want to give the employee access to his/her own data in the system, you will need to provide an 'E-mail'. The 'Contract period' determines when an employee is visible in other areas of AG5 (like the Matrix or the Organizational structures).You've now created a new employee, but we don't know anything about her/his position yet. It is essential to know What the employee does or Where the employee works in order to know what qualifications are required of him/her. Read in this article how to add positions (or tags) and how to work with them.
