In SAP SuccessFactors Onboarding, you can customize the data collection process as required. For the Review New Hire Data and Personal Data Collection steps, custom HRIS fields can be created and added to the employee profile or to the permanent employee record.
In the Additional Onboarding Data Collection step, certain data can be collected separately. An example of the type of data collected in the Additional Onboarding Data Collection step is information that is important for the new hire’s job but is not relevant for the permanent employee record.
The Additional Onboarding Data Collection step is made up of Custom MDF Objects. These allow you to create entities and customize the data collected.
For example, if you want to collect data on uniform requirements for new hires, you can create an entity with the name Uniform to ask for details for the size of the uniform. Or, if you want to ask if a new hire requires transport, you can create an entity named Transport Option.
The Additional Onboarding Data Collection step also appears on the Help Us to Know You Better home page card together with Personal Data Collection.
An Attachment field can be added to an MDF custom object that will allow you to upload additional documents during the onboarding process. These documents can be viewed and downloaded from the Document Management Service or through the Onboarding Dashboard together with the documents generated from the process.
