To create a test employee record so you can use it for training purposes prior to rolling Self Service out for all employees, ensure that:
You have a valid email address that you can access and use for testing.
In PeopleHR, add a new employee with the test email address.
📌Note: By clicking on the clock icon next to Email Address you will be able to see history of changes so you will have access to the previous email addresses.
If you already have your Self Service access, then you receive the welcome email to your test email address.
Ensure you avoid the following actions:
Do not edit an email address for any employees.
If you add a new employee, don’t enter their email address.
Do not enter any holidays on your own profile.
Do not send out any Thanks badges.
Make sure that the admin, manager and employee recap emails are switched off.
Do not add any sickness.
If you have the Ripple Workflow module, ensure this is not in use.
If you do need to carry out any of the tasks above, ensure you go back into Settings and switch off your Self Service.
📌Note: To create a test manager besides your test employee, you need a separate test email address you can access.
