Access Identity Migration

We are evolving the login process around PeopleHR to ensure we maintain our optimal security standards.

What is Access Identity?

At the Access Group, compliance and consistency are at the centre of everything we do. When it comes to security infrastructure and system architecture, we make maximum investment and take every precaution to guarantee industry-leading standards are upheld.

As all PeopleHR users are now customers of the Access Group, you too get to benefit from the security policies that we refer to as Access Identity.

In 2021, we are changing the way that you login to PeopleHR via the desktop system and will begin the roll out to all customers starting with Manual authentication users, before SSO and 2FA customers are able to follow this login process there will be steps to complete by the company admin.

What does this mean for you?

Shortly the pilot group will begin migration into Access Identity for users who use manual authentication.

Then at a later stage we will begin to see the Global roll out for all manual authentication users to begin migration to Access identity.

SSO/2FA

For companies using SSO and 2FA methods you will see admin tasks created which need to be completed in order to migrate your users seamlessly to workspace, more info on this coming soon!

Building queries just got better

Our developers have built some enhancements to the Query Builder to make it easier to use and include more queriable information from your HR system.

Firstly, you can now prevent your colleagues who can access Query Builder from editing that query you spent ages building, by locking it. You can also build queries minus employee names, so reporting more anonymously is a little bit easier. Also, If you wanted to, you now have the ability to give extended access to a colleague, for them to only execute queries. Filters in the query builder have improved too.

You can also report on the edit access rights area of your system, to display who has what access to where. Your notifications admin won't be the only person to receive reminders about the query builder - instead, reminders will go to whoever built the query. 

And finally, you can now query the vacancy job board URL. Why not go test some of the changes out? Let us know what you think!

Find out more details about queries and reporting on the People HR help site.

Time to start recruiting again?

Hopefully you’re all back up and running after a tough few months. 

For many organisations, recruitment has been on pause during lockdown. And for those who have already started hiring again, recruitment is looking quite different. For example, there are fewer face to face interviews taking place. But perhaps the biggest difference our customers have noticed when filling roles, is the sheer volume of applications. 

More people than ever are looking for work. And as well as more applicants, you may also notice people applying for jobs that are not necessarily in their usual area of interest.

We’ve taken the time during lockdown to improve our Applicant Tracking System. This means that as soon as you’re ready to hit the ‘play’ button, you’ll enjoy a smoother, faster and more organised hiring process.

The changes are now live. Here’s what is new: 

Report on vacancy views with Google Analytics

Google Analytics is a leading web analytics service, powered by tech giant Google. It tracks the traffic to your website, and reports back on what people are getting up to.

With the latest release, you can now link your People HR vacancies to your Google Analytics page. This will give you greater visibility over your recruitment process, and will let you see things like who is viewing your vacancy, and when.

Ask new types of questions

We’ve added a load of new field types for you to choose from when creating a new vacancy. This will let you improve the look of your applicant form, as well as capture answers in certain ways.

For example, the new format validator will let you request answers in a specific format, whilst signature fields and checkboxes could become a great way to include things like GDPR disclaimers on your application forms.

Because of these changes, we have also improved the way things look to the candidate, by expanding the size of the application screen. This should make things clearer and faster for them, when they apply for one of your vacancies.

Has anything else changed?

We’ve made a few more tweaks to your ATS to enhance your experience. These include: 

• The ability to move the “Awaiting Approval” pipeline stage

• A new “Closing Date” column on the vacancy page

• The option to specify whether hiring managers and/or hiring leads should delete applicants

Of course, the best way to check out these changes is to give it a try for yourself! Or, if you’d like further help, you can visit our help page here: https://help.peoplehr.com/en/collections/101155-applicant-tracking-system-ats 

Weekly approval for timesheets and assignments

We know you’ve been waiting for it, and you know we’ve been working on it. Bulk approval for timesheets and assignments is now live in the People HR system! 

Approvers will now be able to approve an entire week’s worth of timesheets and/or assignments, all in one go. This saves you multiple clicks in and out of each request. 

Don’t worry, you can still view and approve each entry one by one, if that’s the way you prefer it.
