12 Workflow Management for ADP Workforce Now Module 1: Workflow Basics Automatic Data Processing, Inc. ES Canada

13 MODULE 1: WORKFLOW BASICS HANDOUT MANUAL Module 1: Workflow Basics Purpose This module will introduce the basic fundamentals required to build Workflows within ADP Workforce Now. Objectives At the completion of this module, you will be able to: Identify the purpose of a Workflow Define the components within a Workflow Explain a basic Workflow Identify where Workflow audit histories are displayed Provide examples for each component within the Workflow 2015 ADP, LLC 1-1 W017_ILT_WFN80V01_0415

14 MODULE 1: WORKFLOW BASICS HANDOUT MANUAL Workflow Overview Many different changes/requests are made daily to maintain accurate information within ADP Workforce Now. Some changes are simple updates and have no impacts. Some require specific people to be notified and others require an approval. The Workflow feature provides the ability to create these notifications and approvals and assign them to a specific change or request type. Practitioners are responsible for setting up the Workflows; however managers and employees can trigger them. Once the Workflow is setup, the changes/requests (or events) are what trigger the Workflow to begin. This automation helps ensure all steps in your company's review, approval and notification processes are completed within the time frames your company requires. Pre-Setup Decisions Prior to setting up a Workflow there are several decisions to be made: If notifications and/or approvals will be used for each change/request? What change types will require notifications and/or approvals? Who will have access to make changes? What changes will be made available for employees within the self service feature? What changes will be available to managers/supervisors? Who will be notified on what changes/requests? (individuals, level up or a work group) Who will be responsible for approvals on what changes/requests? (individuals, level up or a work group) Who will receive reminder s and when? Who will receive escalations when approvals have been pending with no response? What wording will be used in the messages? 2015 ADP, LLC 1-2 W017_ILT_WFN80V01_0415

15 MODULE 1: WORKFLOW BASICS HANDOUT MANUAL Workflows Workflows have six possible components. The only components that are required in order to setup a workflow are: An Approval Path and Activity Configuration. The remaining components are used to customize and enhance the Workflow. As we progress through this course, we will explore and setup each of the six components ADP, LLC 1-3 W017_ILT_WFN80V01_0415

16 MODULE 1: WORKFLOW BASICS HANDOUT MANUAL Triggering a Workflow Process This image shows the Workflow process from when it is triggered by the initial change/request through to the final approval/rejection. This process consists of 5 steps: A change/request is made by an employee or a manager, triggering the Workflow. Notification and/or approvals are distributed based on the criteria in the Workflow. Notifications/approvals are reviewed in the Message Center. Practitioner(s) and /or Manager(s) approve requests. Requestor views the final approval/rejection. Step 1 Step 2 An employee or manager enters a change/request, triggering the Workflow. Notifications: All roles can receive notifications. Approvals: Practitioners and managers/supervisors can receive approvals. Step 3 Recipients access the notification or approvals through their message centers. Step 4 Approved requests are saved and will process with payroll based on their effective date. Step 5 The Requestor receives the response to their change/request in their message center ADP, LLC 1-4 W017_ILT_WFN80V01_0415

17 MODULE 1: WORKFLOW BASICS HANDOUT MANUAL Audit History Audit History can be viewed in Message Center within the Current or Completed tab. Information remains in the current tab until it is marked read and archived. Based on where it is viewed it will appear slightly different: The Current Tab. The Completed Tab 2015 ADP, LLC 1-5 W017_ILT_WFN80V01_0415

18 MODULE 1: WORKFLOW BASICS HANDOUT MANUAL Module 1: Workflow Basics Debrief Discuss the following questions: 1. Which type of Workflows will you create for your company changes? 2. Will your company use a simple or a complex Workflow and why? Summary The user can now: Identify the purpose of a Workflow Define the components within a Workflow Explain a basic Workflow Identify where Workflow audit histories are displayed Provide examples for each component within the Workflow 2015 ADP, LLC 1-6 W017_ILT_WFN80V01_0415

19 Workflow for ADP Workforce Now Module 2: Workflow Creation Automatic Data Processing, Inc. ES Canada

20 MODULE 2: WORKFLOW CREATION HANDOUT MANUAL Module 2: Workflow Creation Purpose As discussed in the previous module, all 6 components are not required when creating a Workflow. Although only an Approval Path and Activity Configuration are required to setup a Workflow, it is important to understand the value of the remaining components. In this module, we will expand our knowledge by using one scenario that will encompass all six components of a Workflow. Each component will provide an overview and hands on activities to demonstrate how to complete the setup. Once all components are setup they will be combined in the Activity Configuration step. Workflow Components Objectives Upon completion of this module, you will be able to: Set up each of the components within a Workflow: Membership rules Work Groups Approval path Business Rules Activity Configuration (Exception path) Define which steps are mandatory and which are optional Demonstrate how to escalate pending Workflows after a period of inactivity 2015 ADP, LLC 2-1 W017_ILT_WFN80V01_0415

21 MODULE 2: WORKFLOW CREATION HANDOUT MANUAL Workflows The Workflow components are located in the Setup menus which is only available with practitioner access. We will use a single scenario to demonstrate the setup of a Workflow in module 2 and then the execution of Workflows in module 3. Let s first review the scenario and the requirements, and then we can brainstorm the requirement for each component. Course Scenario Log in as Donald East in order to create all required entries for this module. The following scenario will require two pathways to be created: Pathway 1 - All requests from employees in each department will send an approval request to their manager. Pathway 2 - Time off requests for all employees in Manufacturing (department ). This pathway will send a notification to the Sales and Operation managers and send an approval to Donald East. Note: In both Pathways, an activity specific will be setup to go to the employee as soon as the request is approved or rejected. This will go to the employee's Message Center and will notify them that their request has been approved or rejected ADP, LLC 2-2 W017_ILT_WFN80V01_0415

23 MODULE 2: WORKFLOW CREATION HANDOUT MANUAL Membership Rules Membership Rules define who is eligible to be a member of the group based on criteria outlined within the rule. Membership Rules can be associated with security profiles or Work Groups and can be reused for multiple purposes. Once the rules are set, ADP Workforce Now automatically adds or deletes members from the group based upon if they meet the criteria outlined in the rule. In addition to the automated process, members can also be manually added by selecting employee in the Available for Membership tab. For example: If the criterion in department equals , then all employees that have a department code of will appear as a member of this rule. In addition if David s department changes from to , he will automatically be removed from the rule and placed into the membership rule for department If Sally is hired into department she will automatically appear as a member in this rule. Membership Rule Navigation The screen layout will appear differently based on the type selected. Let s review the two screens. Starting Point: Setup > Approval Process > Membership Rules Note: There are additional attributes not seen in this diagram. Comparison and Calculation Navigation 2015 ADP, LLC 2-4 W017_ILT_WFN80V01_0415

24 MODULE 2: WORKFLOW CREATION HANDOUT MANUAL Membership Rule Fields The criterion fields found in Membership Rules is as follows: Field Options Type Attribute Comparison Attribute Calculation Operators Value Action Icon Comparison or Calculation Associate ID, Bargaining Unit, Company Code, Department, Employment Rate Type, Employment Status, FLSA Status, Full Time/Part Time, Hire Date, Job Class Code, Job Code, Location, Manager, Pay Division, Payroll Standard Hours, Regular or Temporary, Shift, Time & Attendance Employee, Time & Attendance Supervisor, and Archived Employee. Current Date, Payroll Standard hours, Hire Date, and Payroll Standard Hours. The operators for Attribute Calculation include: Equal to, Not Equal to, Greater Than, Less Than, Greater than or Equal to and Less than or Equal to. Note: Operators will be different for Attribute Comparison. Will vary based upon the criteria. Note: Text entered into this field must match a value held in the corresponding validation table for the attribute selected. Add row above, Add row below, Delete row, Add left parenthesis, Remove left parenthesis, Add right parenthesis, and Remove right parenthesis. Pre-Work Decisions Before creating a Membership Rule, the practitioner must make the following decisions: Comparison Type Field Will the rule be a comparison? Example: Job code equal to CSR Calculation Type Field Will the rule be a calculation? Example: Current date-hire date < than 100 Note: Review the Validation Tables to identify your options for many of the values ADP, LLC 2-5 W017_ILT_WFN80V01_0415

25 MODULE 2: WORKFLOW CREATION HANDOUT MANUAL Multiple Criterions Will there be multiple criterions within the logic parameters? Example: Job code equal to CSR and the hire date is > than Jan 21, 2014 Example: Job code equal to CSR or the hire date is > than Jan 21, 2014 Note: To change the AND to OR select the AND button.

26 MODULE 2: WORKFLOW CREATION HANDOUT MANUAL Membership Rules Now let's take a look at how Membership Rules are setup. Demonstration: Creating a Membership Rule We will now demonstrate the process of creating a Membership Rule within ADP Workforce Now. Scenario Create three Membership Rules: Director of Sales: Job Code = DIRSALES Manager of Operations: Job Code = OPSMGR Department Identifier: Department = (Manufacturing) Activity: Creating a Membership Rule - Director of Sales Log in as Donald East. Starting Point: Setup > Approval Process > Membership Rules Step Action 1 Click ADD. 2 Name field: Type DIRSALES.

29 MODULE 2: WORKFLOW CREATION HANDOUT MANUAL Work Groups Overview Work Groups contain one or more Membership Rules. When Membership Rules are combined into a Work Group, the individual Membership Rules still apply. The rule will now define the members of the Work Group. Like Membership Rules, members can also be manually added by selecting employees from the Available for Membership tab. Tip: Like Membership Rules, Work Groups are reusable. Example The company wants to create a Workflow to have David from HR and Heidi from Benefits approve all pay rate change requests. If individual Membership Rules are created for David and Heidi, they can then be combined into one Work Group that will contain an automated membership process. If they create a Work Group with one Membership Rule and then manually add the other member, all changes will require manual intervention for the member that was manually entered ADP, LLC 2-10 W017_ILT_WFN80V01_0415

30 MODULE 2: WORKFLOW CREATION HANDOUT MANUAL Work Group Navigation Starting Point: Setup > Approval Process > Work Groups # Description 1 Practitioners enter the Work Group description here. 2 Practitioner can select which rule(s) will be assigned to the Work Group in this tab. 3 The Members tab provides a view of the automatic members and the ability to manually add members # Description 1 The Members tab contains two sub tabs: Current Members and Available for Membership. 2 The Current Members tab contains the list of members that was automatically populated based on the Membership Rule. 3 The Available for Membership contains a list of all members that are available to be added manually.

31 MODULE 2: WORKFLOW CREATION HANDOUT MANUAL Demonstration: Creating a Work Group & Assigning Membership Rules We will now demonstrate how to create a Work Group, assign Membership Rules and add a member manually. Scenario The Sales Director, the Operations Managers and Michele Heroux need to be aware of all time off requests. Create a Work Group called Sales & Operations, assign the Membership Rules DIRSALES & OPSMGR and then manually add Michele Heroux to the membership list. Activity: Creating a Work Group & Assigning Membership Rules Starting Point: Setup > Approval Process > Work Groups Step Action 1 Click ADD. 2 Name field: Type Sales and Operations. Description field: Type Sales and Operations. Click Done. 3 Select DIRSALES, hold down the CTRL button, select OPSMGR, and then select the single arrow pointing to the right. 4 Adding a Member Manually: Select the Members tab, then Available for Membership tab. 5 Type Heroux into the Last Name field, and then select the Filter button. 6 Place a check beside Michele Heroux. 7 Then, select the dropdown on the Save button, and select Save & Return. Activity Results 2015 ADP, LLC 2-12 W017_ILT_WFN80V01_0415

32 MODULE 2: WORKFLOW CREATION HANDOUT MANUAL Approval Paths Approval Paths define who will be assigned to an activity and what function they are to perform (approval or notification). Multiple paths can be created within each Approval Path as long as the assignee is unique for each step. In this example: When a Workflow is triggered, a notification will go to the members of the Work Group, Sales and Operations and an approval request will go to Donald East. Starting Point: Setup > Approval Process > Approval Paths The Assignee Type identifies who the notification or approval will be sent to. The approval process is based on an organizational hierarchy. In addition to the Work Group and specific user assignee types, practitioners can select from two hierarchies (Up Affected Employee Manager or Up Submitter Manager) with the Assignee option levels of Up Submitter Manager is assigned to the individual's manager. Up Affected Employee Manager is used when a change is made by a person other than the employee or employee s manager. Both can be used to interlace the hierarchies with Specific User and Work Group steps with no restrictions on their order in the approval path. The hierarchy that is followed is based on the submitter or the affected employee, providing options for different paths. When approvals are sent to Work Groups, requiring multiple approvals, all the approvals must take place before the Workflow will be complete. Like Membership Rules and Work Groups, Approval Paths can also be reused within multiple activities. Additional Resources Refer to the following additional resources: The Setting Up Workflow in ADP Workforce Now guide on the Support Center The ADP Workforce Now Support Center: Search Approval Paths > Select Documentation Page Level Help 2015 ADP, LLC 2-13 W017_ILT_WFN80V01_0415

33 MODULE 2: WORKFLOW CREATION HANDOUT MANUAL Approval Path Navigation Practitioner must enter a path name and a description before entering the criteria. Starting Point: Setup > Approval Process > Approval Paths The approval page appears as follows: Navigation Chart # Description 1 The Approval Path Name is entered here. 2 The Approval Path Description is entered here. 3 There are four Assignee Types to select from: Specific User, Up Affected Employee Manager Hierarchy, Up Submitter Manager Hierarchy and Work Group. 4 Assignee: Specific User: The assignee options are to be select from the employee list. Up Affected Employee or Submitter Manager Hierarchy: The assignee options can be selected between levels 1 through 10. The requester's manager (level 1) upward the organizational hierarchy. Work Groups: The assignee options are to be selected from an existing list of Work Groups. 5 Step Type: Approval: Can go to practitioners, managers and supervisors. Approval requests must be approved before the changes will process with payroll. Notification: Can be sent to all roles. Notifications tell the assignees what changes have been made. 6 Action: Insert above: Inserts another step above the existing one. Insert below: Inserts another step below the existing one. Delete: Deletes the selected row ADP, LLC 2-14 W017_ILT_WFN80V01_0415

34 MODULE 2: WORKFLOW CREATION HANDOUT MANUAL Workflow Approval Path Options As part of the Approval Path setup, practitioners must identify if this Workflow will initiate a notification, an approval or a combination of notifications and approvals. Let s look at each of the options: Action 1. Nothing (No Workflow) Description A change is made using employee or manager self service. The results are then processed. 2. Notification A change is made using employee or manager self service. This triggers a notification to be sent to a specific user, one level up or to a Work Group. The notification is sent to the recipients Message Center where they can view the change. Example: The HR team only requires notification on address changes. 3. Approval A change is made using employee or manager self service. This triggers an approval request, which is sent to a specific user, one level up, or to a Work Group. The approval is sent to the recipients Message Center where they can view and approve or reject the request. No changes are sent to payroll until the request has been approved. Example: All rate changes must be approved by the VP of the department. 4. Approval and Notification A change is made using employee or manager self service. This triggers both a notification and an approval request to be sent. The notifications and approvals are sent to the Message Centers of specific users, one level up, or Work Groups. The notifications and approvals are usually sent to different people or groups. The rules regarding notification and approvals still apply. Notifications do not prevent the processing of the changes; however nothing will process to payroll until the approval request has been approved. Example: When a rate is changed a notification is sent to HR and the approval request goes to the department VP. Important Information If effective dating is off, the changes will process with the next payroll. If effective dating is on, the changes will not take effect until the date advised at the time of entry. Only practitioners, managers and supervisors have approval privileges. All roles can receive notifications ADP, LLC 2-15 W017_ILT_WFN80V01_0415

35 MODULE 2: WORKFLOW CREATION HANDOUT MANUAL Demonstration: Creating Approval Paths We will now demonstrate how to create multiple Approval Paths. Scenario Create two Approval Paths, one for each scenario: 1. Pathway 1: Create a two-step process with the following criteria: Work Group, Sales & Operations and notifications Specific User, Donald East and Approval 2. Pathway 2: Create an Approval Path with the following details: Up Submitter Manager Hierarchy, One Level, Approval Activity: Creating a Multi-Row Notification/Approval Path Starting Point: Setup > Approval Process > Approval Path Step Action 1 Pathway 1: Click ADD. 2 Key the following into these fields: Path Name: Dept (Manufacturing) Description: Dept Notification and Approval 3 Select Work Group from the Assignee Type dropdown. 4 Select Sales and Operations from the Assignee dropdown. 5 Select Notification from the Step Type dropdown. 6 Click the action icon and select Insert below. 7 Select Specific User from the Assignee Type dropdown. 8 Select Donald East from the Assignee dropdown. 9 Select Approval from the Step Type dropdown. 10 Select Save.

Activity Result 2015 ADP, LLC 2-17 W017_ILT_WFN80V01_0415

37 MODULE 2: WORKFLOW CREATION HANDOUT MANUAL Business Rules Standard Workflows automate the notification and approval processes, however many companies have unique situations/exceptions that require more than what the standard Workflow can support. Business Rules provide the ability to create exceptions sending notifications and/or approval requests along a different path based on the criteria outlined in the Business Rule. Like approval paths, Membership Rules, and Work Groups, Business Rules are reusable. Example All Time off requests for employee in the home department will go to the department VP for approval. The Time Off request for all other home departments will go one level up for approval ADP, LLC 2-18 W017_ILT_WFN80V01_0415

38 MODULE 2: WORKFLOW CREATION HANDOUT MANUAL Business Rules Navigation The approval page appears as follows: Navigation Chart Starting Point: Setup > Approval Process > Business Rules Step Action 1 Is where the Business Rule description is keyed. 2 The comparison type allows the practitioner to create criteria by selecting an attribute and then assigning a value. 3 Action Add provides the practitioner with the ability to locate criteria and then add it into the database. 4 Action Update provides the practitioner with the ability to locate criteria and then update the information in the database. 5 Action Delete provides the practitioner with the ability to locate criteria and then delete the information in the database. 6 The calculation type allows the practitioner to calculate data and only capture the values that meet the criteria in the operator & value.

41 MODULE 2: WORKFLOW CREATION HANDOUT MANUAL Activity Configuration (Exceptions to Approval Paths) The Activity Configuration component combines all of the various components of the Workflow together. It is broken down into two tabs: Standard Activities and Custom Activities: Standard Activities: Within the Standard Activities tab practitioners can select Employee or Manager Activities to attach to Workflows. Custom Activities: Within the Custom Activities tab a wizard provides the ability to create custom Employee Activities. In addition to the activity itself exception pathways can also be setup for customized activities. Once an activity is selected from the Standard Activity tab there are several setup requirements: Default Approval Path (required) Escalation (optional) s (optional) Exception Approval Paths (Optional) Important Information Activity Configuration contains default Standard Activities for employees and managers. These activities cannot be deleted or changed, however practitioners can create customized activities using the Custom Activities tab ADP, LLC 2-22 W017_ILT_WFN80V01_0415

42 MODULE 2: WORKFLOW CREATION HANDOUT MANUAL Navigating Activity Configuration The Activity Configuration page appears as follows: Navigation Chart # Description 1 The Standard Activities tab displays all of the activities (Employee & Manager).
