Construct the (07) Task catalog Using the tool under "Workplace ◄► Requirement profile", you link the company structure to the requirement profiles. You can select any combination of individual tasks, skills, or requirements and assign it to the areas, departments, or workplaces using the buttons at the bottom of the tool window. You can also assign individual weightings to the combination you have created. Define (08) Qualification levels In the "Workplace ◄► Individual tasks" tab, you define the qualification levels of the individual tasks for a workplace. The weightings of the individual tasks can also be adjusted here. Import (09) Employees This guided dialog lets you import a CSV file with header rows. The import requires at least the following information: personnel number, first name, last name, email. Date of birth and start date can also be included. These are used for the graphical display on the Q-Matrix™ home page. Assign (10) Employees to workplaces The employees can now be displayed in an overview. In the list, you can assign each employee a primary workplace via the "Primary workplace" field. |
