  2. Employee Self Service – Administration The Site Administration Menu is available only if the user has been assigned the role of Administrator in Employee Self Service. This menu allows user roles to be defined, deleted or added; logo and company documents to be uploaded; menu options, welcome message and user instructions to be personalized; and system and direct deposit settings to be defined.

  3. Employee Self Service – Administration The Edit Menu option is used to define the menu options the site has purchased. The Site Administrator can view all options available and determine which purchased options will be available to their employees. Unchecking a menu or sub-menu options will make the option unavailable for all employees. Any menu options that were not purchased will be visible to the Site Administrator but grayed out and not available for selection.

  4. Employee Self Service – Administration User Maintenance menu allows for users to be deleted and user roles to be assigned.

  5. Employee Self Service – Administration Registered employees can be deleted from Employee Self Service by selecting the employee from the Delete User list and clicking the delete button. If the employee has pending tasks, the user cannot be deleted until all pending tasks have been rejected or approved. Once an employee is deleted, they must register again in ESS to access their information. Terminated employees can still register for ESS to make demographic change request and to access their check and W2 history.

  6. Employee Self Service – Administration The site administrator can assign or un-assign approval roles to employees after they have registered for Employee Self Service. The employee is selected from the list of Registered Users and then their role is selected from the Add Roles list. The arrows are used to add or delete roles for the employee. The standard roles are preset but new roles can be added with Edit System Roles on the User Maintenance menu.

The Approval Roles are then assigned to each ESS function that the role will be responsible for approving or maintaining with the Task Default Routing menu option. The roles are then assigned to employees under the Assign Roles to User option on the User Maintenance menu. (Edit System Roles) (Task Default Routing)

  9. Employee Self Service – Administration Leave can be approved by location by defining a leave approval role for each location and assigning the role to a department (cost center location). The role would also have to be assigned to a employee(s) in the Assign Roles To User option. If a location does not have an assigned approver, it will default to the Leave Administrator and the employee assigned to this role. (Add/Edit Leave Approvers)
