mana HR structures how new employees settle in with onboarding templates per role. You set up your own phases (for example contract signing, equipment setup, first week) and fill them with standard tasks. For each job, you add missing tasks on the fly. Tasks are assigned to owners, and automatic reminders go out. You store documents and contacts centrally in mana HR. Candidates from applicant management move seamlessly into onboarding. Plus personal customer success support included by default.

What mana HR Can Do for Onboarding

How does onboarding work in mana HR?

You work with onboarding templates per role. Each template is made up of phases, each phase of tasks. For example, you set up the phases contract signing, equipment setup and first week and fill them with standard tasks: send the contract, order the laptop, set up accounts, plan the introduction. For each job, you add missing tasks on the fly, so every role gets its own onboarding path. Tasks are assigned to owners, and automatic reminders make sure nothing slips through.

How does onboarding organize internal collaboration?

The onboarding module is an internal organization tool. HR, IT, team leads and office management work through their tasks in parallel: order the laptop, set up accounts, plan the introduction, prepare contract paperwork. Each department sees only its own tasks. You store documents and contacts centrally in mana HR. All data is captured in a structured way. That keeps the transfer into your existing HR system cleanly prepared at any time. And the groundwork runs in an orderly way before the first day even begins.

How does onboarding connect with applicant management?

Candidates who are hired in applicant management move seamlessly into onboarding. You don't have to transfer any data by hand or create people again. The role's onboarding template kicks in automatically. From that point on, recruiters, HR and the departments keep working in the same system.

Frequently asked questions

What is the onboarding module from mana HR?

The onboarding module completes mana HR's recruiting cluster. You structure how new employees settle in with templates per role, phases, tasks and reminders. Candidates from applicant management move seamlessly into onboarding. The module is part of the flat rate at no extra cost.

Can I create a personalized onboarding per role?

Yes. You set up onboarding templates per role. Each template has its own phases and standard tasks. When you hire a new person, the template kicks in automatically. For each job, you can add or adjust tasks on the fly. So a workshop role has a different onboarding path than an office role.

How do I involve the department in onboarding?

Through task assignment to owners. You assign tasks to colleagues from different departments: IT sets up accounts, team leads plan the introduction, office management orders equipment. Everyone sees only their own tasks. Automatic reminders make sure no one forgets anything.

How do I manage documents in onboarding?

You store all relevant paperwork in the onboarding profile: contract documents, guides, checklists, forms. The documents sit centrally in mana HR, not scattered across email inboxes or on the file server.

How does the handover from applicant management into onboarding work?

Seamless. You hire a candidate in applicant management and onboarding starts automatically with the stored template. No manual data transfer, no re-entry. All information from the application process is available in the onboarding profile.

What does onboarding cost at mana HR?

Onboarding is part of the mana HR flat rate. No paid add-on module, no limits on the number of onboardings. All features are included. You'll get concrete pricing in a personal demo.
