10. If you would like to clear all information entered, click Reset and the fields will be set back to their default values.
Token Maintenance When a temporary account is created for onboarding purposes the system generates a token for that user which controls their access to the system i.e. by expiry date or by a certain number of uses or sign in attempts. To view detailed token information for a specific user, navigate to the Token Maintenance screen. Here you will be able to find information about the temporary user as well as the temporary account such as the expiry date for the token. The Token Maintenance search grid includes the following information:
Important Note: Once a new employee has completed entering information into the onboarding forms and clicks ‘Submit’ the system will automatically remove their temporary account so they will no longer be able to sign into the onboarding portal.
Once you search for and select a token the properties grid will populate and display all of the details about that token, in read-only mode. The Aspects grid displays details about the expiry date or max number of uses for the token. If necessary, you can extend or shorten the new hires access to the onboarding portal by editing this information |
