With the new Employee Management Flow, you now have a centralized hub for managing W-2 employees from day one through their entire journey with the companies your platform serves. We built this new Flow to reduce the time for partners to launch their payroll products.
One Dashboard, Complete Visibility
Think of the Employee Management Flow as mission control for W-2 employees on your platform. A single interface that gives employers on your platform the full picture of their employees’ information at a glance.
Here’s what makes this new Flow useful:
See Your Entire Team in Context
Organize and view employees across three clear states—Active, Onboarding, and Dismissed—so you always know exactly where everyone stands. No more guessing whether someone completed their paperwork or if a termination was processed correctly.
Access Everything That Matters
Dive into comprehensive employee details including basic information, compensation, tax data, and documents—all in one place. Whether you need to verify someone’s address for a form or check their current pay rate, it’s right there.
Manage Lifecycle Events Seamlessly
Need to process a dismissal or bring back a former employee? The Flow provides streamlined entry points for these critical moments, turning what used to be complex processes into straightforward tasks.
Track Onboarding Progress
Whether your new hires are completing self-onboarding or you’re managing the process for them, you can monitor exactly where they are in the journey. No more wondering if someone finished their I-9 or set up direct deposit.
Maintain Historical Accuracy
Track compensation changes and address updates with effective date management. When someone gets a raise or moves to a new location, you’ll have a clear record of when changes took effect and what the previous values were.
How It Fits with Your Workflow
You might be wondering about how this fits in with the Add Employees Flow. Both Flows serve important purposes.
The Add Employees Flow is still your go-to tool for initial company setup. When you’re bringing on your first batch of employees or setting up a brand new company, it’s optimized for that initial onboarding experience.
The Employee Management Flow takes over from there. Add Employees helps companies get onboarded to your payroll product; Employee Management helps maintain that data over time. It’s built for the steady state—the daily and weekly tasks of running a business with employees.
