We have added Job Grade / Level settings to allow for a clearer classification of employee hierarchy and seniority levels within the system.


1. Access Job Grade Settings

  • Click on your Profile Toggle (top right corner).

  • Navigate to Settings > Employee > Job Grade.


2. Create a New Job Grade

  • Click the + Create Job Grade button.

  • A new Job Grade column will appear. Click on the Sample Text to enter your specific Job Grade title (e.g., Junior, Senior, Lead, or Grade 1-5).

  • Click on the Color Picker icon to choose a specific color to represent that grade for easy visual identification.


3. Assigning Job Grades to Employees

  • Navigate to the Employee tab.

  • Locate the Job Grade field within an employee’s profile or during an update.

  • A drop-down menu will appear; simply select the Job Grade level you wish to assign to that employee.


4. Completion

  • Once selected, the change is saved automatically or upon clicking update.

  • The process is successful, and the job grade will now be reflected in reports and the employee directory.
