DOCUMENT POLICY

Document Enforcement Group

Define which documents each type of new hire must submit — and let the system enforce it before onboarding can close.

The Document Enforcement Group in the onboarding process ensures that specific documents are mandatory for upload and the uploaded document is signed by the employee. The configuration for this enforcement needs to be set up in the Document Sub Type section. Below are the key details of how it works:

Configuration in Document Sub Type

  • Navigate to CoreHR → Employee Data Management → Document Sub Type and Click +Add New

  • Enable the enforcement group to make the document mandatory during the onboarding process.

  • Employees can be required to upload necessary personal documents, such as ID proofs, educational certificates, or previous employment records.

  • If enabled, the employee is required to submit the necessary document during onboarding and will not be able to skip this step.

Document to be uploaded during self onboarding


  • During self-onboarding, the employer can upload the required document for the employee. The employee must download the document, sign it manually, and then upload the scanned copy as part of the onboarding process.

  • If you upload a document, please update the instructions in the mail content box below. The same text will be displayed during the self-onboarding process.
