Searching for Documents

You can search for employees by which documents they have under advanced search. To learn more about searching check out Beyond - Advanced Searching.

When you create a new rule you can click the arrow on the left to open up the category and choose Document category. This will show you all Document related fields you can search by: 

Searching for records that have a specific document type:

ex. Document type equals Federal I-9

Searching for Expired Documents: 

Keep document type rule and add another rule for expiration date is on or before [Today's date or date next week, etc.] 

Searching for Missing Documents:

Use the group option and create a rule in the group where Document Type equals Federal I-9. Then check the box in the top left of the group to indicate NOT - meaning that the search will exclude people who have an I-9 on file which leaves only the employees who are missing the document.

Documents & Security

Some documents that you save may contain sensitive or secure information that not every one in your system should have access to. As an Administrator in Beyond, you can set up document security to limit who can upload, view, or remove documents based on document type. 

New to security in Beyond? Check out Beyond - Managing Security Groups. 

To Manage Document Security in Beyond:

1. Make sure you are at your highest Hierarchy level (system or subsystem, etc.)
2. Navigate to B Menu > System Settings > Security > Document Types:
   
3. Select the  to the right of the security group you want to add members to or edit 
4. Select Edit 

• Read = View documents
• Write = Upload documents
• Delete = Remove documents

Default Groups Available:

TempWorks has a few default groups you can utilize. Default group permissions can not be edited but users can be added or removed from these groups. 

• All Access - Can Read/Write/Delete all document types
• No Access - Can NOT Read/Write/Delete any document types
• Read Only - Can only read (view)  documents

We recommend considering your team members and customizing a few groups based on what they should have access to. Review your employees and separate them into groups and then create or utilize the default groups to match the security accordingly. 

For Example: 

1. Admins/HR who should have all access to all documents
2. Managers that have access to most and can delete documents
3. Recruiters/Sales that can upload most document types but can not view docs with sensitive information and can not delete

Check out Beyond - Managing Security Groups for more information on creating your own groups. 

Add Users To Groups
