- Click the HR category and select the Employee On-Boarding (IT) item.
- A form opens where the fields are to be filled and create a Request.
- Once the Request is created, the status of the Request is either Open, In Progress, Pending, Resolved, or Closed.
- You can also view the audit logs of the particular created request.
