       in the organizations employees list. The employees list starts from the second employee (Organization Head).

       responsible for administering Sentrifugo.

                          submitting timesheets etc. You can add another employee to Sentrifugo for the

       One of the main features available in Self Service is Leave Management. You can raise leave requests and have
       them approved by your Reporting Manager/HR. Below is the leave management process flowchart.
       Process Description:
              A User (Any User who has a reporting manager) raises a leave request.
              The User can cancel his leave request unapproved or approved (one day before the leave date)
              Either the Reporting Manager or HR can approve/reject/cancel (at any time) the leave request.
                               After an approved leave request has been cancelled, the leave(s) are
                                            credited back to the users leave balance.

                                           5. Service Request
       Service Request provides access to key services and information which are required by the employees. Configure
       the service request workflow without coding or scripting. You can raise and handle service requests. Below is the
       service request process flowchart.
       Description:
              A User (Any User who has a reporting manager) raises a service request.
              The Executor(s), Viewer(s) and the User will receive an email notification.
              The Executor has 3 options:
                    o He/she can execute and close the service request
                    o Request for Management approval
                    o Request for Users managers approval
              The actual execution takes place offline
              If the Executor has requested for either Users Reporting Manager or Managements approval, then the
               request will only be closed once one/both of them have approved. The Reporting Manager or
               Management will receive an email notification if an approval is sought from them by the executor(s).

               approved
              If the Users Reporting Manager or Management reject the request, then the executor can close the
               request

       Performance Appraisal is a systematic evaluation of Employees performance and to understand their
       abilities for further career transition. It is generally done by the supervisors on the basis of factors such as
       parameters, questions, ratings etc. In Sentrifugo, the appraisal is configured for an entire business unit or
       for a specific department. Below is the flowchart of the appraisal process followed in Sentrifugo:
 Sentrifugo 2017 - All Rights Reserved                                                                        Page 170 of 236
       Process Description:
               A User (Management/HR for only specific department) initializes an appraisal
               The appraisal can be enabled to Managers/Employees
               If it is initialized to the Managers first, then they can assign questions in addition to the ones set by the
                User who initialized the appraisal.
               After the Managers submit their questions, the appraisal can be enabled to the Employees. (If you dont
                require a Manager to provide additional questions, then you can directly enable the appraisal to the
                Employees)
               The eligible Employees will submit their self-appraisal and send it to their L1 Manager.
               L1 Managers will provide their comments and ratings for each question and overall comment and rating
                for the Employees
               Depending on the number of appraisal levels selected, the L2/L3.. Managers can only provide overall
                rating and comment
               The User will close the appraisal cycle
               Management will initialize feedforward for Employees who have completed their appraisal or for all
                Employees
