Online Actions Framework

This is accessed via Admin | HR Framework | Online Actions Framework.

Online Actions may include items such as Induction Training, Surveys, or updating details. The configuration of Online Actions is completed within this Framework area. The configuration will generally consist of a number of Groups which each contain Elements, and you may then link an employee with any Group.

This Framework area links to Online Actions in Employee HR Details, where employees can follow up on Online Actions they have been asked to complete. When the employee logs in to kiosk they will see these associated entries in Online Actions and they can complete them as required.

Group

These are the 'types' of online actions, within which you will have any number of actions (Elements). For example you may have an Inductions Group which contains the Elements 'OHS Induction', 'New Employee - Head Office', and 'New Employee - General'.
