For more information on how to access and Cintra People HR’s Employee Directory.

The Directory can be accessed by all employees, or you can restrict the access by role. The Directory will show basic information about your employees - Name, Job Title, Team, Email Address, Office Location and Telephone Number provided they are provided in the employee profiles. This can also be viewed as an Org chart format by clicking the tab at the top to view the structure and layout of the company and parent teams.

You can view the directory by team or select All Teams. Users with the HR Manager role will be able to add employees directly from this page, and also view Joining and Former employees. 

You can also add custom columns to the Directory, if you want to show additional information here. You can use the search bar on the top left to search for specific employees.

Making changes to the Directory

You can restrict access to the Directory. To do this:

  1. Go to Directory > Config.

  2. Use the tick boxes to select which roles have access to view the Directory. If you switch this off, users will no longer have the Directory menu item. 

When you're happy with the changes, scroll to the bottom and click Save.
