EazeHR "How Do I?"

Setup

Q1. Who all have access to Setup? Who all can modify Setup for an application?

Ans. . Only Application Administrator from your Company has access to this section. If the company has taken the additional service of Managed Support from EazeWork then EazeWork Client Administrator (EWCA) also has access. EWCA’s access is at the same level as Application Administrator. Only Application Administrator can modify and maintain the application Setup and EWCA from EazeWork can manage the Setup. To find out your EWCA you can write to support@eazework.com, please make sure to write your Company name on the email subject.

Q2. What is Master Data? Who all have access to it?

Ans. Master Data is information like Company name, Department name, Product information, Salary heads. Master Data is created infrequently and is maintained in the Application Setup by Application Administrator.
All users access the Master Data when they use the application but they cannot create, edit or delete these data elements.

Q3. Can I delete Master Data after creating it?

Ans. If the Master Data element which you are trying to delete is associated with other active or in process transactions then you cannot delete it. If it is not linked to any other transactional or master data elements then you can delete it.

Q4. What is Transactional Data? Who all have access to it?

Ans. Information like Leave request, Sales report, Purchase orders, Salary slips etc. which are created and handled on a more frequent basis are classified as Transactional data. 90% of the data is actually Transactional data.
All users have access to Transactional data based on their roles.

Q5. What happens to my Setup, Master Data and Transactional Data when I unsubscribe?

Ans. We retain your Setup for a period of 3 months after which it is deleted. If you activate your account in this period you can start using the application with your Setup and Master Data. If you activate your account after three months you would have to start from scratch as all data would have been deleted.

Q6. Can I change settings made during Setup at a later point?

Ans. You can change any setting at any point of time. The only thing you have to be careful of is the impact of these changes. The actions you can do are linked to the impact your action has. Some possible actions and their impact are given below
- Deletion of Master and Transactional data: you can only delete data which is not linked.
- New Master data to be created: in some cases a change in setting will create new data elements which will have to be filled up with relevant values. You are allowed to do so.
- Changes in process impacting some transactions which are in process: as a simple thumb rule the application does not allow the Administrator to make a change in Setup if it is impacting the handling of some transactions which are not yet complete. Only when these transactions are completed will the change be allowed. You can however prevent Users from creating new transactions by deactivating the Setup.

Q7. Different offices in my company follow different holidays. How can I set this up?

Ans. EazeHR has the flexibility of creating and maintaining a calendar at three levels

- Location Calendar: this can be created and assigned to an Office Location. When this is applied to an Office Location then all the Users mapped to the office location also get assigned to this calendar.
- Employee Calendar: can be created and assigned to an individual User. This is used when individual employees in a location follow a different calendar.

Q8. How do I ensure that Users only take Restricted holidays they are eligible for?

Ans. Each User is mapped to a Calendar – either through a Default calendar or a Location calendar or an Employee Calendar. Whatever Restricted holidays are available on the Calendar can be applied by the User through the Leave module. The restriction on total number of Restricted holidays is managed through the Leave Type – Restricted Holiday, here the Administrator can define the number of days of Restricted holiday an Employee is eligible for and the basis.

Q9. What is the duration of Calendars?

Ans. Each Calendar has a fixed start date of 1-January and fixed end date of 31-Dec. The only exception to this rule is the Calendar made for the first year when the company starts using EazeHR. In the first year the start date is same as the day on which the company starts using EazeHR application (referred to as Onboarding Date). For example, if a company activates its subscription on 14-April-2010, then the first year (2010) calendar will have a start date of 14-Apr-2010.

Q10. Can I make Calendars for future?

Ans. Administrator can save calendars for three years, so in 2010 the Administrator can create and save calendar for 2010, 2011 and 2012. On 1-Jan-2011 he can create a calendar for 2013.
