Challenge

Resource request form used to fill by the departments when a new resource is required. The workflow for this process will vary based on the grade and position of the resource sought for. This process was carried out manually before implementing in SharePoint. Some of the higher grades need to be approved by the CEO, other high-level employees and board members of the organization. So, the HR staff or the personal secretary need to inform them before for the approval. Sometimes the email regarding the request approval will be unnoticed by them, which consumes time and made the recruitment process lengthier. Also, the recruiting position is all new position, then HR need to create the job description for that particular position.

  • Notification to all the approvers in portal as well as in the mailbox.
  • Given the provision to select/ create the job description in the same form if it is a new position.
  • The system will decide the approval workflow based on the job grade and age.
  • Provided different workflow levels for resource request and job description.
