Adding a New Employee

Create new employees in Avanti right from Employee Directory. From here, you can add all the essential information needed for the new employee, including job, pay, vacation, and benefit information.

Additional Information
If you’re using the New Hire Requests to hire applicants, you won’t want to use the New Employee to add them. This will result in two employees being created for the applicant.

Security on the Employee Directory

Tailor access to the Employee Directory and New Hire based on your organization’s needs when you Set up the Employee Directory.

Accessing the Employee Directory and New Hire
Regular Users and Managers can access the Employee Directory when they have user group access and view permissions to the menu.

To access New Employee, Managers and Regular Users must have Add access to the Employee Directory and User Group access to both the Employee Directory and New Hire menus.

Employees cannot access the Employee Directory to see information for other employees; only Managers and Regular Users can.

Access to Employees
Employee access is based on the Manager or Regular User viewing the Employee Directory; they’ll need access to the employee’s pay group and role permissions to the employee’s position for an employee to display in Employee Directory.

Additional Information
Go to Role Assignments
 for more details on how role permissions work in Avanti.

Access to SIN
Restrict Access to SIN so only those needing it can view it on the employee summary and add one for a new employee. Limiting access to SIN restricts access throughout ASSP and the Avanti Desktop.
