Introduction

Key features of Sage People WX are:

• WX Service

The top level grouping comprising one or more WX Processes. For example, a Performance Management Service with component Processes for Objectives, Recognition, and Performance Review. You have complete flexibility when naming WX Services - choose names and groupings of Processes that make sense within your organization (see page 24).

WX Services are displayed to Team Members through the WX Navigation Bar and Service Bar.

Introduction Feedback

WX Configuration Guide © Sage 2018 9

• WX Process

Individual processes mapping to specific Sage People processes and grouped into WX Services. As with WX Services, you can name a WX Process to suit the requirements of your organization. Each WX Process has a summary Tile view, and most also have a Detail view.

You can include the same Process in one or more WX Services, making a Process easier to find. For example, include a Skills Process in: o A Skills & Competencies Service o A Performance Management Service o A Career Planning Service

WX Processes are displayed nested within WX Services in the Navigation Bar and Service Bar, with summaries displayed in Tiles and Detail in the main page view.

• Internal Communication

A powerful and adaptable type of WX Process, enabling you to create broadcast, or more tightly targeted communications in a range of formats including: o Rich Text. o External website, providing easy access to external resources and feeds from third party systems,

subject to your organization's security policies. o Video, useful for high impact messaging. o Image, with or without click-through. o Templates for Twitter and YouTube.

Build a library of Internal Communications and assign them to WX Services as you would any other WX Process (see page 46).

Create local language versions of Internal Communications and associate each with a locale setting; Team Members with matching locale settings then see the localized version of the Internal Communication (see page 59).

Use Internal Communications for surveys seeking feedback, storing responses for analysis (see page 69).

• Recognition

A WX Process type enabling your Team Members to award visible and immediate positive feedback to others. Typically aligned with core competencies or values defined for your organization, Recognition integrates social performance management with the rest of the Sage People system (see page 77).

• Summary

High level WX reporting processes, initially available to display: o A total employees counter o Birthdays in the next 7 days o New hires in the last 7 days.

You can display birthday greeting or welcome messages in WX for those Team Members with birthdays today or who are new hires (see page 80).

• Year End Vacation Balance Reporting

A WX Process type enabling you to present a configurable report on team vacation absence balances (see page 85).

• WX Reports

A WX Process type delivering a set of standard Salesforce reporting features through an enhanced charting interface. WX Reports can be made available to managers and Team Members. Implementation and use is covered in the separate Analytics: WX Reports guide.

Configuring WX features follows standard Sage People practice; you need access to the Administration settings available through the HR Manager Portal where you can find tabs for WX Services, Internal Communications, and WX Reports.

If you are upgrading an existing HCM org to the latest WX release, you may have to change some configuration settings (see page 14).

WX Configuration Guide © Sage 2018 13

Timesheets Record your time at work by date and duration, with setup options that enable recording by total time, start-end time, pay code, or work allocation - project, customer, or some other measure.

Browser Compatibility WX supports the following browsers:

• Apple Safari version 5 or later

• Google Chrome

• Microsoft Internet Explorer version 11 or later o Salesforce applies some limitations to support for Internet Explorer. Refer to Salesforce help topics for

Supported Browsers for more information.

• Mozilla Firefox version 4 or later

• Opera version 11 or later

Sage People tests all software releases against the latest commercially available and stable versions of all listed browsers, as well as a range of earlier versions including those known to be used by our customers. Where testing reveals non-critical anomalies in feature support that cannot be resolved before release, we add a note describing the issue next to the description of the feature.

To optimize security and ensure the best possible level of technical support from your browser supplier, always run the latest available, fully supported version.

Moving End Users From Collaboration Portal To WX If your organization uses some or all of the available processes (see page 11) and no others, you can switch all your users from the Collaboration Portal to WX as soon as you are ready. If you use Sage People processes that are not yet available in WX you can:

• Delay switching from the Collaboration Portal to WX until all the processes you use are available.

• Divide your users into groups and allocate those groups to different Policies. Because WX is enabled through Policy settings, you can then choose which groups of users you want to migrate, and when.

How to Set Up and Use WX Services Creating a New WX Service

WX Configuration Guide © Sage 2018 25

Creating a New WX Service You can create as many WX Services as you need for your organization, with each Service containing all necessary Processes. Usability - particularly on devices with smaller screens - is likely to put a practical limit on the number of Services and Processes you want to display.

1. Select the WX Services tab.

2. On the WX Services Home page, select New.

Sage People displays the New WX Service Edit page:

3. Complete the fields as follows:

WX Service Name The name you want to display in WX for this service. Use a name that summarizes the processes you are planning to group within it - Team Members use the Service names to navigate WX and effective naming helps them find what they're looking for as quickly as possible.

Order Number, no decimal places. The order in which you want this service displayed in the Navigation Bar and the Service Bar. Lower numbered Services are displayed above higher numbered in the Navigation Bar, and to the left of higher numbered in the Service Bar. Use numbers that make it easy to change the order and add new Services, for example use 10, 20, 30 rather than 1, 2, 3.

4. Select: o Save to save the Service and display the WX Service Detail page. o Save & New to save this Service and create another. o Cancel to discard this Service without saving and return to the WX Services Home page.

How to Set Up and Use WX Services How to Ensure Service and Process Names can be Translated

WX Configuration Guide © Sage 2018 27

How to Ensure Service and Process Names can be Translated When creating WX Services and Processes you must specify a Name for each Service and a Label for each Process. The default procedure is to enter these as text strings; they are then displayed exactly as entered regardless of the language setting chosen for WX.

To ensure that WX Service Names and Process Labels can be translated into local languages:

• Create a Custom Label for each Service Name and Process Label you want to display in local languages.

• Use the Custom Labels to host the translations you want to display.

• Create a text file to hold the Custom Label names. The text file must not contain any blank lines. Maintain the text file if you add more custom labels and translations.

• Load the text file as a Static Resource for WX to use.

• Create an Apex Class and add code to enable WX to access the static resource. This is a once-only operation for each org.

• Ensure that the languages you want to use are activated in the Translation Workbench.

Follow these steps:

1. Go to Setup > App Setup > Create > Custom Labels and select New Custom Label.

Create a new Custom Label for each WX Service Name and Process Label you want to display in local languages.

2. Complete the fields as follows:

Short Description A brief description of the label. By default, Name is created from the Short Description and the two are typically left with the same text content. If you are using default Name creation to create the Name directly from the Short Description, start Short Description with WX_ (that is, WX immediately followed by an underscore) to ensure WX hides the label name for the short interval while translations are loaded. If Name is not self explanatory, use Short Description to help define the purpose of the label.

Categories Optional. Enter one or more text categories for this label separated by commas. You can use Categories to sort and filter labels.

Value The default text string to display when this label is selected. If you do not load translations for this label, Value is always displayed when the label is selected.

Name The API key for this label. Automatically created from the Short Description, you can change the Name if you wish. To ensure WX hides the label name for the short interval while translations are loaded, start Name with the characters WX_ Must begin with a letter and contain only alphanumeric characters and underscores. Cannot end with an underscore or contain two consecutive underscores.

Protected Component

Checkbox. Not displayed by default. If displayed, set unchecked.

3. Select Save.

Sage People displays the Custom Label Detail page.

4. In the Translations Related List, select New.

Sage People displays the New Translation page.

5. In the Translation Information section: o Select the Language you want to add for this Custom Label. o Enter the Translation Text you want to appear when the Language is selected to display this label.

6. Select Save.

Sage People displays the Translation Detail page. To add another translation, select the Master Label:

Repeat steps 5 and 6 to add as many translations as you need. You can add a value for the default language (typically English) if you do not want the WX Service Name or Process Label to display the default Value for the Custom Label when the default language is displayed.

7. In the WX Service or Process that will use the translations you have loaded, enter the Custom Label Name exactly as specified for the Custom Label.

8. Use a text editor to create a plain text file holding all the Master Label Names, one per line. o Ensure each Name is exactly as specified on the Custom Label Detail page; WX uses the Name as the

key to map the translations for display. o The text file contains no blank lines; blank lines can cause errors when the labels are loaded in WX.

Use a single text file for all the Custom Labels for translatable WX Service Names and Process Labels.

A mistake in the text file holding the Custom Label is a common source of problems in displaying label names in WX. Make sure:

• Every name in the text file is exactly the same as the Custom Label Name.

• There are no names in the file without matching Custom Label Names.

• There are no Custom Labels without matching entries in the text file.

• The text file contains one line for each Custom Label Name, and that each line holds just one Name.

• The text file contains no blank lines. If labels fail to display in WX:

• Check your text file and correct any errors.

• Reload the corrected file to the Static Resource as described.

9. Save the file with a meaningful name, for example:

MyCompanyName_WX_Labels.txt

10. Go to Setup > App Setup > Develop > Static Resources

11. Select New.

Sage People displays the Static Resource Edit page.

String staticResourceName = 'Custom_Label_Translation_Keys';

List<String> labelNames = new List<String>();

try {

StaticResource sr = [SELECT body, name, NamespacePrefix FROM StaticResource WHERE Name =: staticResourceName LIMIT 1];

fHCM2.TranslationHelper.addLabels(labelNames, sr);

} catch (Exception ex) {

System.debug('Failed to get translations for '+ staticResourceName +': ' + ex);

}

return labelNames;

}

}

Where: o ApexClassName

is a meaningful name for the Apex Class of up to 40 characters, with no spaces. For example: MyCompanyName_WXPackage

o Custom_Label_Translation_Keys is the name of the static resource you created.

How to Set Up and Use Internal Communications

The Internal Communications process enables you to create and display a very wide range of communications including:

• Rich text notices

• External websites, including links to social feeds (see page 72)

• Videos

• Images

• Html (available to System Administrators only)

Internal Communications can be:

• Broadcast to all employees.

• Targeted at those assigned to a Policy or Policy Group.

• Visible to a defined group of Team Members.

• Localized with versions for all the locales you need to support.

Actions generated by Internal Communications are added to the Actions Digest and appear in the list of Actions for all Team Members who need to take action as a result of the communication.

Each Internal Communication must be assigned to one or more WX services - you can create:

• A dedicated service to carry all Internal Communication.

• Internal Communications for specific services, for example: o A supporting video for upcoming performance reviews, targeted at managers, and assigned to a

Performance Management service. o A bulleted list for best practice skill logging for a Skills & Competencies service.

There are three steps to setting up and using Internal Communications:

1. Switch Internal Communications on in the Policy or Policies you want to use (see page 47).

2. Create the Internal Communication, complete with any localized versions you need (see page 48).

3. Assign the Internal Communication to a WX Service so that it can be displayed on WX (see page 32), selecting Internal Communications as the WX Process Type, and specifying the Internal Communication you want to assign.

Using Scoring for WX Internal Communications Scoring enables your Team Members to respond to an Internal Communication with a rating and comments. Using the Scales held in your org's Scale Library, you can choose a scale that is appropriate to the Internal Communication - for example:

• For a catering survey asking if the recent change of supplier has been positively received, use an Agreement scale, with possible responses ranging from definitely to definitely not.

• For a survey seeking an indication of the level of knowledge within the organization of an area that's been proposed for commercial development, use an Expertise scale, with possible responses ranging from Expert to None.

All scale responses have numerical values, enabling wide ranging statistical analysis.

Responses are stored for each Internal Communication.

To use scoring:

1. Set up an Internal Communication with a Scale (see page 48).

Scale must be specified so that when displayed to Team Members, the Internal Communication includes a Score button.

How to Set Up Recognition Recognition - also known as Shout Outs, Badging, Crowdsourced Performance Review - enables you to use social performance management across your organization, giving all Team Members the ability to award visible and immediate positive feedback to others. You decide the things you want to be awardable - typically values or competencies.

Recognition is enabled by Policy and linked to a Job Profile. The Job Profile provides the list of values or competencies you want to use for Recognition and must be provided for Recognition to work:

• In an org with more than one Policy you can roll out the process group by group.

• You can use an existing Job Profile or you can set up a Job Profile just for use with Recognition. A dedicated Profile can have all the competencies you need, which might not be practical with an existing Job Profile.

There are two steps to setting up and using Recognition:

1. Switch Recognition on in the Policy or Policies you want to use (see page 78).

The Policy also has settings for: o The Job Profile you want to use. A Job Profile must be specified. o Maximum numbers per Team Member per month for giving and receiving Recognition.

2. Select a WX Service and create a Recognition Process (see page 32), selecting Recognition as the WX Process Type.

How to Set Up Year End Vacation Balance Reporting

The WX Async Reporting Process enables team managers to generate and view a regular report on vacation absence balances for their teams. The report presents managers with a single page view of current and forecast predictable absence for their direct reports, with drill down into the data for sub-teams. Data is displayed in tabbed view, with one tab for each Vacation type defined in the Absence Accrual Pattern:

How to Set Up Year End Vacation Balance Reporting Policy Options: Performance Overview

WX Configuration Guide © Sage 2018 86

There are five steps to setting up Async Reporting:

1. Ensure that all balance types you want to include are selected in the Absence Accrual Rule for the Vacation type. Use the checkboxes: o Show Accrued Balance o Show Carry Over o Show Time in Lieu o Show Accrued Total o Show Year End Balance

2. Create a batch process to extract the data for the report (see page 87).

The report displays the data generated by the last batch and does not change the content of the report until another batch runs.

3. Add the Async Reporting is Active checkbox to the Policy page layout, and switch on Async Reporting in each Policy you want to use (see page 89).

4. If your team includes some members reporting vacation in hours and others reporting in days, add the Hours to Days Conversion Factor field to the Absence Accrual Pattern page layout.

The conversion factor enables Team Total, Maximum, and Average values to be displayed in both days and hours. Team Members reporting in different units can also be accurately sorted for display in descending value order. Values for individual team members are displayed in their reporting units - days or hours.

Enter a value in the field to act as a multiplier when converting hourly values to daily equivalents; if left blank Hours to Days Conversion Factor defaults to 0.125 for an 8 hour day.

5. Select a WX Service and create the Process instance (see page 32).

Use the Additional Information field to enable data display and select the content of the Tile (see page 90). The Process does not display any data if Additional Information is left blank.

Async Reporting requires the separate Async Reporting package in addition to Human Capital Management.

How to Set Up Year End Vacation Balance Reporting Setting up a Batch to Update Report Data

WX Configuration Guide © Sage 2018 87

Setting up a Batch to Update Report Data The Async Reporting process uses a regular batch process to extract vacation absence data from your org. The reporting process does not display any data - Tile and Detail views are empty - until the batch has run for the first time.

Sage People also recommends that you run the batch to update data after installing an updated Async Reporting package.

To set up the batch:

1. Go to Setup > App Setup > Develop > Apex Classes

2. Select Schedule Apex:

3. On the Schedule Apex page, complete the fields as follows:

Job Name A meaningful name for the batch process, such as Absence Reporting.

Apex Class The Apex Class that runs the batch job. Select Apex Class Lookup and select the AsyncReportingAbsenceSchedule Apex Class.

Frequency When the batch is to run. Select from:

• Weekly Select the day of the week. To run on more than one day every week, select the days you want the batch to run. To run more than one batch on a given day, set up separate batches with your desired combinations of day of the week and Preferred Start Time; for example, one batch on Monday at 8:00 AM, one batch on Monday at 9:00 AM.

• Monthly Select from: o The day of the month - 1, 2, 3... o The nth occurrence of a particular day; for example, the third Monday of every month.

Start The date you want the first batch to run. If you set Start to today's date and you want the batch to run today, make sure Preferred Start Time is later than the current time.

End The date you want the batch to stop running.

Preferred Start Time Picklist. Select the picklist and choose the time of day you want the batch to run. Batches may run after the Preferred Start Time if the job queue is busy at the time.

4. Select Save.

5. Check that the batch is scheduled to run when you expect it:

a. Go to Setup > Administration Setup > Monitoring > Scheduled Jobs

b. Check the Next Scheduled Run value for the new batch job.

You cannot amend batch details after you have saved - you must delete and recreate to make changes.

Each time the batch runs, data is written to an Async Report Run record with data for each Team Member held in an Async Report Row object. You can inspect the data in JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) format for a Team Member by going to the Team Member Detail page and scrolling down to the Async Report Rows Related List. The Async Report Rows Related List is not displayed by default and must be added to the page layout.

How to Set Up Payslips The WX Payslips Process enables you to display payslip information to Team Members. The process draws on data written to the Payflow Line object and requires a configured Payflow Service to write that data, typically by interfacing with a payroll service. The information displayed to Team Members is controlled by a set of three Payflow Line Field Sets, for Tile, Detail Summary, and Detail views. Fields selected for display must be included in the mappings to and from the Payroll Lines defined in the Payflow Service.

There are four steps to setting up Payslips:

1. Set up the Payflow Service to generate the data. Refer to the Payflow Implementer's Guide for more information. Use the File Upload Configure options.

2. Configure the Payflow Line Field Sets to define the information displayed to Team Members (see page 95).

3. Select a WX Service to host the Payslips Process and create the Process instance (see page 32). Select Payslips as the WX Process Type.

4. Switch on Payslips in each Policy you want to use (see page 95).

The WX Process displays blank Tile and Detail views until the Payflow Service has run its first successful upload batch.

As an HR Manager or Administrator with access the Employment Records for your Team Members you can view and edit the data loaded by each Payflow Batch - go to the Payflow Lines Related List on the Team Member's Employment Record (see page 96).

How to Set Up Delegated Access for Assistants

WX Delegated Access is supported through the HR Manager Portal:

• The Roles tab.

You can add the Roles tab to your display using Customize My Tabs on the All Tabs page. Roles are used to map assistants to managers for defined processes.

• Assistant To and Assisted By Related Lists displayed on the Team Member detail page.

You can add these Related Lists to your display using the Edit Layout link on any Team Member detail page.

Assistants are granted access to the defined Manager's view of the processes included in the Role.

Guidelines:

• By default, to set up WX Delegated Access you need Administrator level access to the HR Manager Portal.

• Users with HR Manager level access can define Assistant Assignments but they cannot define the Processes for a Role.

• You can restrict each Role to a single process, for example, Absence. Restricting the number of processes makes it easier to manage Role assignment, for example: o Use one C-level Absence Assistant Role to map all C-level managers to one or more Executive

Assistants for delegating absence approval when managers are not available. o Use one South Africa PAF Assistant Role to map all HR Requests originating from regional managers

to a single senior assistant during a reorganization.

• Setting up Delegated Access for the Absence process gives the Assistant access to the Absence process for all the manager's direct reports

To set up Delegated Access:

1. Define the Role (see page 102).

Each Role enables you to map managers to assistants for defined processes.

2. Add the Processes you want to include for the Role (see page 104).

3. Add Managers and Assistants you want to use the Role (see page 105).

How to Set Up Pre Boarding

A combination of HCM Configure page, Team Member Employment Status picklist, and Policy options enable you to create an enhanced experience for new hires by giving them controlled, limited access to WX services and processes before their start dates. Access for Pre Boarders can also include or exclude the org chart and Team Member contact details displayed on the People Bar. Pre-boarders are visible to their managers but hidden from other Team Members.

To set up Pre Boarding:

1. Add one or more Pre Boarding options to the Team Member Employment Status picklist (see page 111).

Employment Status enables Pre Boarders to be identified by Sage People processes and access permitted or excluded.

2. On the HCM Configure page:

a. Add Pre Boarding status values to the WX Setup, WX Hidden Employment Statuses field (see page 109).

Team Members with Hidden Employment Statuses are hidden in WX from other employees except their managers.

b. Add Pre Boarding status values to the Pre Boarders section, Is Pre Boarder field (see page 109). Values entered must exactly correspond with the Pre Boarder values you have defined in the Team Member Employment Status picklist.

3. Create a Policy to assign to Pre Boarders, setting the options you want.

Typically, copy an existing Policy and edit it to create the levels of process visibility and access you want to grant Pre Boarders.

4. Assign to the Pre Boarder Policy any Internal Communications you want to make available to them.

5. Assign Pre Boarders to the Pre Boarder Policy.

6. If you do not assign a dedicated Policy to all Pre Boarders but allocate Pre Boarders to Policies used by Team Members with other employment statuses, you can take advantage of the Hide Contact Details From Pre Boarders checkbox (see page 22).

If checked, contact details for all Team Members assigned to the Policy are hidden from Team Members with Employment Status set to one of the Pre Boarding values you have defined.

How to Add a Supported Language If your org is set up as a multi-language org you can add support for more than one language. Supported languages are those for which you want to load local language translations so that your users can see them.

Sage People managed packages are supplied with a range of translations already available and maintained; check with your administrator to find out which languages your organization already has available.

Adding a language is a three step process:

1. Make the language available (see page 138).

2. Add the language to your org (see page 140).

3. Load translations (when none are provided) or override provided translations for further customization.

You can also change the default language used throughout your org for any available language (see page 143).

To display translations for WX Service Names and Process Labels, you must load them as Custom Labels supported with a Static Resource text file holding the Label Names (see page 27).
