Create and Manage Employee Categories
This feature allows administrators or HR managers to define custom categories for employees directly from the configuration settings. Categories can represent departments, roles, contract types, or any internal grouping that helps structure the workforce effectively.
Category Assignment in Employee Profiles
Employee profiles include the option to select a category, enabling managers to classify each employee according to the organization’s defined structure. This ensures that employee information remains consistent and well-organized across the HR module. The categorization helps teams quickly understand an employee’s group or function while maintaining a clear and structured database for reporting or internal management purposes.
Visual Category Indicators Across Views
Employee categories appear in multiple views such as list, form, and kanban, providing visual cues that make navigation and identification easier. Color-coded labels help users instantly recognize different employee groups without needing to open individual records.
