Eden field notes / Employee onboarding

Employee onboarding automation
with a clear handoff.

Give each new hire a clear path from accepted offer to ready first day, without losing the human checks.

Map the handoffs first.

Start at the accepted offer. Name the owner of each step: HR collects required details, IT prepares approved access, and the manager confirms the role and start date. Record where each request begins and which system holds its status.

Show what a workflow could do.

In an illustrative process, HR marks an offer accepted. A workflow checks the start date and role, opens equipment and account requests, and gives each owner a due date. The manager reviews the access list before IT grants permissions.

This is a planning example, not a delivered client result. The workflow should show a pending item and its owner, not declare the employee ready because an email was sent.

Stop on missing or changed facts.

A changed start date, unclear role, missing form, or duplicate request should pause the affected step. Send it to a named reviewer. Keep the previous value and the decision so HR and IT can see what changed.

Test the first day.

Try a normal hire, a delayed start, and an IT system outage. Confirm that a person can finish urgent steps manually. If your HR system already handles these handoffs, use it. Eden can scope custom connections when work crosses tools.
