Unsubmitting or Rejecting Onboarding Documents
Overview
There may be times when an employee submits a document with incorrect or incomplete information. In these cases, you will want to unsubmit or reject the document. Unsubmitting or rejecting documents can be accomplished via the Employee record.
Before You Begin
To get a quick overview of document status and to make searching for employees with onboarding documents easier, it is recommended that you add the Submitted, Approved, and E-verify columns to the Employee list view:
Adding Onboarding Columns
- Navigate to the Employees tab.
- From the Actions menu, select Edit Columns.
- In the Edit Columns window, check the boxes for Submitted, Approved, and E-Verify (if applicable).
- You can adjust the order of the columns by holding next to the column name and dragging it to the desired spot on the list.
- Once you have finished adding and adjusting the columns, select OK to return to the list view.
Steps
- Navigate to the Employees tab.
- Locate the employee that submitted documents and select next to their name to open their record.
- In the employee record, select Documents.
- In the employee's document list, locate the document to approve.
There several options for narrowing your search:- The Showing filter lets you choose between showing all employee and placement documents, documents assigned to the Employee record, and documents assigned to specific placements.
- Each of the column headers can be sorted and/or filtered to locate specific documents more easily.
- Choose next to the document to open it.

- Select .
- On the unsubmit confirmation screen, you will be asked if you would like to notify the employee:
