About This Automation

Employee onboarding involves collecting signed paperwork, setting up payroll and system access, and coordinating schedules across several people. Done by hand, it depends on chasing documents and re-entering the same details in multiple systems, which delays start dates and creates compliance risk.

An automated onboarding workflow creates the new hire record, routes required forms for signature, and triggers payroll, IT, and training setup as each step clears. The result is a faster, more consistent start for every new employee with less manual follow-up.

Key features
Creates the new hire record automatically once the offer is signed
Routes identity and tax paperwork for signature and checks it for completeness
Triggers payroll setup and benefits enrollment as soon as paperwork clears
Provisions system access and alerts the team to prepare equipment
Schedules orientation and manager meetings without manual calendar work
