Workforce

The people, the jobs they hold, and how they are performing.

People

5

The workforce, the roles they hold, who reports to whom, and who is joining.

Performance & Talent

13

Reviews, goals, the nine-box and who could do this job if the holder left.

RecordsPerformance CyclesThe period, the rating scale and whether ratings have to fit a distribution.OpenRecordsPerformance ReviewsPerformance and potential are different axes, and conflating them is what makes a nine-box impossible to build later.OpenRecordsGoalsHow a goal is judged has to be agreed before the period rather than argued after it, which is what the measure and target are for.OpenRecordsGoal Check-insWhere each goal stood at each check-in, the owner’s update and the manager’s answer.OpenViewCheck-in StatusEach goal’s check-in clock: the cycle’s cadence, the last check-in, when the next is due, and which are overdue.OpenRecordsDevelopment PlansWhat a person will do to grow: actions with due dates, linked to courses and skills. Activating a plan enrols its courses.OpenRecordsDevelopment ActionsThe steps of each plan: a course (enrolled, and closed when completed), a skill to a level, mentoring, a stretch assignment.OpenRecordsReview WorkflowsThe steps a performance review passes through, per review type or chosen on a cycle: self review, manager review, calibration, approval, acknowledgement.OpenRecordsReview Workflow StepsEach step, in order: what it is, who acts (the employee, their manager, the manager’s manager, or a role) and how many days it has.OpenViewReview HistoryEvery move of every review: who started, submitted, approved, sent back or acknowledged it, and what they said.OpenRecordsTalent ProfilesThe nine-box as its two axes, plus flight risk, mobility and what the person themselves says they want — which is not the same as what has been planned for them.OpenRecordsSuccession PlansA plan is for a POSITION, not for a person — planning succession for a person is how you end up with no plan when they are promoted.OpenRecordsSuccession CandidatesWhether the candidate knows matters: a plan they have been told about and one they have not are different instruments.Open

Certifications & Skills

6

What people hold and when it lapses, what they can do, and what their jobs need.

LMS Integration

3

An external learning platform -- Aspire or any other -- connected by file or HTTP.

Hiring

A request for a post, who signed for it, everybody who applied, and what has to be ready for a first day.

Recruiting & Onboarding

25

A request for a post, who signed for it, where it was advertised, everybody who applied, who was seen, who was appointed — and what has to be ready for their first day.

WorkspaceRecruiting DashboardThe funnel by stage and its conversion, time to fill and time to hire, which sources produce hires, offer acceptance, and whether every hire went through the required steps.OpenWorkspaceOnboarding DashboardHow many accepted offers turned into people who started, every joiner's checklist and how far it has got, and the tasks overdue by who owns them.OpenWorkspaceOffboarding DashboardWho is leaving and who has left, and the offboarding tasks each department owes -- access, equipment, final pay -- with the overdue ones first.OpenWorkspaceEEO Applicant FlowSelection rates by race and ethnicity, sex, veteran and disability status from applicants' voluntary self-identification, with the four-fifths comparison. Counts only; small groups are suppressed.OpenRecordsHiring RequisitionsA request for a post: what it is, which grade, where, what it costs for a year, and why it is needed. Send it for signature and it collects the approvals its value calls for; only an approved vacancy can be advertised.OpenViewHiring ApprovalsEvery signature a vacancy is waiting for, in the order they are collected. The level being waited on is the one whose earlier levels have all signed — nothing below it can be decided first.OpenRecordsJob PostingsWhere a vacancy was advertised, and for how long. One vacancy can be advertised on several channels at once — the staff portal and a newspaper are two postings against one request. Attach the published advertisement to the posting and it stays with the record of the appointment.OpenRecordsCandidatesEverybody who has been in front of this company for a post, whether they applied or were found. Somebody already employed here is marked internal, which is what makes an internal move visible as one.OpenViewApplicationsEvery application received against a vacancy, and what stage it has reached. This is the screen that answers "how many applied, how many were shortlisted, how many were interviewed, and who was selected" — counted from the record rather than from a spreadsheet somebody keeps.OpenRecordsInterviewsWho is being seen, by whom, when, and what came of it. A round with no feedback is a meeting nobody can act on, which is why the outcome sits on the row.OpenViewInterview PanelsEvery seat on every interview panel: who sits, as what, what they recommended and what they gave out of 100. A panelist marks their own row with Score.OpenViewCandidate RankingEverybody who applied for a vacancy, in the order the interview panels put them. Candidates on the same score share a rank. Selecting anyone ranked below a candidate still in the running is allowed — with the reason kept on the record.OpenRecordsOffersOffers out to candidates, and where each one is in its approval and response cycle.OpenViewJoining & LeavingEvery checklist actually running: whose it is, what is done, what is overdue. A new joiner's access, card and desk are on one of these, and so is what a leaver still has to hand back.OpenRecordsOnboarding ChecklistsWhat has to happen before somebody can start, and what has to happen when they leave. A sign-in to raise, an identity card to print, a desk to allocate, assets to hand back — held as a template so nobody is relying on remembering it.OpenRecordsPipeline StagesThe stages an application passes through, and which of them mean shortlisted, interviewed, offered and hired. Counting a funnel is only possible because these are records rather than words in a column.OpenRecordsHiring Approval RulesWhich vacancies need signing for, and by whom. The people are named on the rule's Approval Levels, which is the same screen a purchase order uses — one delegation of authority, written once.OpenRecordsInterview ScorecardsWhat a panel marks a candidate on, how much each criterion counts, and how the panel’s view becomes a recommendation — set before anybody is interviewed. One for a vacancy, one for a job, or the company’s default.OpenRecordsCandidate MessagesWhat a candidate is told when their application arrives, reaches a stage, is invited to interview, is not taken further or is made an offer. Switch a message on to send it by itself.OpenViewMessages to CandidatesEvery message written to a candidate -- by itself or by hand, sent, held, opted out or failed -- and why.OpenRecordsOffer Letter TemplatesThe letter an offer is sent with. Send writes it from the default template, files it as a PDF on the offer and sends it for the candidate's electronic signature.OpenRecordsTask DepartmentsWhich department does the onboarding and offboarding tasks of each owner role, and who answers for them. The offboarding dashboard counts each department's tasks, overdue ones first.OpenRecordsRecruiting SettingsWhether offers go out for electronic signature and who countersigns them, how long an applicant's self-identification link works, and the smallest group the EEO report will show.OpenRecordsCareers SiteThe company's public careers site: its live postings on the careers-site channel, each with an apply form that works without signing in. Closed until you open it; at an unguessable address until you choose a public one. Internal postings are never shown there (employees see them under Internal Jobs).OpenReportCalendar InvitationsInvitations sent from interviews, performance reviews and check-ins: who was invited to what, when, and how often it was sent. Sending again after a change updates the same calendar entry; cancelling removes it from every calendar.Open

Time & Leave

What was scheduled, what was worked, and what was taken.

Time & Attendance

13

What was scheduled, what was worked, and what the rule made of it.

RecordsTimesheetsHours entered, then evaluated against the rule that governs the person so that what a manager approves is what will be paid.OpenRecordsTime EntriesOpenReportWho’s InWho is clocked in, on a break or out right now, with the status they last gave and where.OpenViewClock PunchesEvery clock-in, clock-out, break and status, with the server’s time, where it came from and, where asked for, the position. Never edited: a wrong one is put right by a punch correction.OpenViewPunch CorrectionsA missed or wrong punch put right, with the reason, decided by somebody other than whoever asked and never by the employee themselves. Those an employee asks for wait in their manager’s Team Approvals too.OpenReportPunch ExceptionsThe last two weeks’ missed punches: a clock-in never clocked out, a break never ended, and -- for people whose policy requires punches -- a scheduled day with no punch and no leave.OpenRecordsWork SchedulesThe pattern somebody is meant to work. A cycle need not be seven days: four on, four off is eight.OpenRecordsSchedule AssignmentsOpenRecordsShiftsA shift that ends before it starts runs past midnight, which puts its hours on two dates.OpenRecordsRosterOpenRecordsOvertime RulesOvertime is a conclusion, not an entry. The rules of the country a person is paid in apply to them, and the most specific wins: an agreement over a regional rule over the national one.OpenRecordsTime PoliciesHow time is captured and counted for a pay group, the people an overtime rule governs, or the whole company: clock punches required or hours typed allowed, whether the browser’s position is asked for, rounding, and a premium for working a holiday.OpenRecordsTime ExceptionsWhat the daily check found: a shift with no time against it, a no-show, a late start, a very long day, overtime nobody approved, a timesheet nobody submitted. Correct the time where time is kept; mark here what was done.Open

Leave

6

Entitlement, what is booked, and where every day came from.

Employee Travel

Asking to go, and claiming back what it cost.

Trips & Expense Reports

5

Permission to travel before the trip, what was spent on it, the policy each line is checked against, the per diem that applies, and the cards it was paid with. Moved here from Supply Chain: travel is something an employee does.

Pay Processing

10

Gross to net, and everything the calculation reads.

Pay Setup

9

What money is called, who is paid when, and what the tax depends on.

Tax & Filing

10

The rates in force, the forms to file, and the engines that can do either.

WorkspaceStatutory FormsThe statutory payroll forms of the company’s country, and where each one is prepared.OpenWorkspaceTax & Payroll EnginesOutside providers that calculate the tax or run the whole payroll. Real calls, real credentials, sealed at rest.OpenRecordsTax ConstantsThe rates and wage bases in force for a year. Held as data because they change every year — check them against the current Publication 15-T.OpenRecordsWithholding TablesThe percentage-method brackets. "Multiple jobs" is the standard table with every threshold halved, which is what step 2(c) of the W-4 selects.OpenRecordsState RatesHow each state withholds: no tax, a flat rate, its graduated scale (State Brackets) or California’s DE 44. The note says which year each figure is from — check it against the state’s employer guide before a live run.OpenRecordsState BracketsThe graduated scales the state methods read. Only From and Rate matter to the calculation; a state with no married table withholds married filers on its single one.OpenRecordsState ProgramsWhat employees pay into in the state they work in: disability, family and paid leave, long-term care, employee unemployment — each with its own wage base, and each a line on the payslip and an entry in W-2 box 14.OpenRecordsLocal Tax JurisdictionsCities, counties, school districts, PA political subdivisions and transit districts, with their resident and non-resident rates and the rule that decides between them.OpenRecordsLocal BracketsA locality’s graduated resident scale — New York City’s, chiefly.OpenRecordsEngine ExchangesEvery exchange with an outside tax or payroll engine. When a provider and the ledger disagree six months later, this is what settles it.Open

Garnishments

2

Court and agency orders, taken in priority within the legal limits, and remitted to each payee.

Saudi Payroll

4

GOSI contributions, the WPS salary file and end-of-service awards, for a company in Saudi Arabia.

Labor Distribution & GL Interface

9

What each payslip was for -- grant, property, program, fund, cost center, department, job -- and the payroll journal as a file for the general ledger that receives it, balanced, reconciled and sent.

WorkspaceGL Interface ConsoleChoose an interface and a payroll run: the control totals, anything that would stop the file, make it, send it, and take the specification and mapping workbook away.OpenRecordsGL InterfacesWhere payroll goes in the general ledger that receives it: the target system profile (Yardi Voyager journal ETL, or a generic CSV / JSON journal), its codes, the schedule and the transport. A new interface sends TEST files until Go live.OpenRecordsGL Interface MappingsWhich target account (and property, segments) each payroll amount goes to. The most specific rule wins: a code before *, then each dimension it names, then priority.OpenRecordsGL Interface Code CrosswalkA property, department, program, fund, grant, cost center or job as the target system codes it.OpenRecordsGL Interface Valid CodesThe receiving system's own chart and property list. With a list loaded, a code not on it stops the file.OpenViewGL Interface FilesEvery file made, version by version, with its checksum and control totals -- never changed, never deleted. Resend sends the same file again; Reprocess makes the next version after a correction.OpenViewGL Interface ExceptionsWhat stopped a file: a missing mapping, an invalid code, an imbalance, a control total that did not agree, a failed transmission. Correct the cause and Reprocess.OpenRecordsLabor SplitsThe standing distribution of an employee's (or a position's) pay, used where no time says otherwise: salaried people, holidays, retro and off-cycle pay.OpenViewPayslip AllocationsEach payslip split by what the work was for. The employer's taxes and benefit costs follow the gross.Open

Payroll Tax

7

Three clocks — the money, the form and the annual reconciliation — and the fastest of them is the one that carries the penalty.

WorkspacePayroll Tax WizardWork a payroll tax period step by step. A deposit run, a return and a year end are three different processes on three different clocks: a company that files perfectly and deposits late is penalised, and a company that deposits on time and files late is penalised less.OpenRecordsPayroll Tax RegistrationsOne per obligation, not one per authority: an income-tax withholding account and an unemployment account with the same state are different registrations with different numbers, different rates and different due dates.OpenRecordsPayroll Tax CalendarWhat is due and when. The deposit and the return are separate rows because they are separate obligations with separate penalties.OpenRecordsPayroll Tax PeriodsA run has a purpose as well as a period. The same pay period appears in a deposit run, a return and a year end at different times, computed the same way and reconciled against each other.OpenViewPayroll Tax LiabilitiesOne row per obligation. "Payroll tax" is not a number: it is six numbers to five authorities on four clocks, and the run total is the sum of these rather than the other way round.OpenRecordsPayroll Tax DepositsEvery deposit actually made. Separate from the liability because one liability can be deposited in instalments and one deposit can cover several liabilities, and the reconciliation between them is the annual step where errors are found.OpenRecordsPayroll Tax FindingsWhat the checks turned up. A negative net pay and a missing registration are both blocking, and for the same reason: somebody outside the company finds them first.Open
