Data Backup and Discovery (BDR) The Value of Planning Natural disasters, pandemics, accidents, and/or man-made disasters all are beyond our control. As a business owner, what is under your control is your organization’s ability to survive any of those occurrences. While having a backup of your company’s data is important, it doesn’t guarantee recovery. The best time to plan for a disaster is before one happens. Keeping your organization running smoothly and securely is paramount in today’s economy. In addition to putting a backup and disaster recovery (BDR) plan in place, consider implementing managed services. Read to learn more about protecting your business from disaster.
Learning Spotlight: Tips, Tricks, or FAQs
LightWork Time Why are employee timesheets not going to payroll? If a timesheet(s) is not at the highest approval status, usually HR Approved, unless changed by your company, the timesheet(s) will not populate when going through the export process. Important note: LightWork does not stop an export because a few timesheets could not go through. However, the system will list the timesheets that were not included in the export. Go to the Validation Issue Report to identify which timesheets could not be exported for any number of reasons. It is always a good idea to check if a timesheet was missed during the approval process. The best way to do this is to use the Timesheet Status filter option. This will allow you to check if any timesheets are still sitting in any other status outside of HR Approved. LightWork Performance Management How does the release to manager/employee button work? When a manager sends an appraisal back to the employee (that had been submitted and released by the employee), the employee cannot change their score/comments, but they do have the ability to edit the other sections of the appraisal that they have access to. Now, if an employee were to release to a manager and not submit their score, then that manager were to release it back to the employee, the employee would still be able to edit their score.
Deleting an employee's appraisal and username does not delete the employee's record in the employee profile section of LightWork. By deleting the username, you would ensure that the terminated employee would not be able to access LightWork. (That can also be done by setting up your system so terminated employees cannot log in. See the configuration guide for how to do this.) If your LightWork system is integrated with another third party HRMS system, you will not have the capability to delete an employee's profile from LightWork. LightWork gets all of its information from your HRMS system, which is why it cannot be edited. Now, that does not mean that the employee will continue to show up throughout LightWork. When an employee is terminated within the third party HRMS system and then synced with LightWork, the employee will be marked as terminated within LightWork. When an employee is terminated within LightWork they will no longer show in filters or on managers screens, unless a filter is set to show terminated personnel. So, by terminating an employee, you would be basically removing the employee from the systems day-to-day activities. The only part of an employee that would still exist would be their historical record within LightWork. They would not be active in any other way.
