Add Second Manager in Employee Journey

[x_Tony_x]

Hello everyone,

is it possible to add a second Manager to an Employee Onboarding Journey and have tasks assigned to him just like the "main manager"? Has anyone had experience with this kind of request? The Mentor will be occupied and can not be chosen as a second manager.

Looking forward to your responses.

Best regards 

Tony

@x_Tony_x I have worked on the similar requirement where along with the manager, few task can also be assigned to the deputy manager. We defined the deputy manager field on the sys_user table and consumed it for assigning the task meant for the deputy manager during the employee onboarding. 

In your case, if the additional tasks are only limited to onboarding and the second manager role is limited towards onboarding case only then you can choose to define the second manager field on HR LE Case table as well. This will be a reference field and will have a reference of sys_user table. This second manager field can be used in the HR Templates to assign task to them.

Hope this helps.

Hello Sandeep, 

thanks for the input. I managed to figure out what I was looking for. Basically it clicked when I came across this article.

Finally I just added the second Manager field on the "sn_jny_journey" table as reference to sys_user and then added this field in the header (see article above).

This was only for Demo purposes in my case so I did not configure any further complex functionalities or access controls.
