Hiring a new employee is always exciting. After all, it’s a sign of potential prosperity yet to come.
The first few days of their employment, however, can quickly temper this excitement as they integrate into your workflows, seeking access permissions, the necessary software, and the right settings on their hardware. Every stumble in the early days of one’s employment not only sets low expectations for the rest of their experience working with you, but also prevents your business from gaining the full benefit of that new team member’s efforts.
Let’s talk about how to avoid these setup lags and position your new employee for productivity and success from the very start.
## User Systems Shouldn’t Be Set Up Manually
First and foremost, it’s time to stop tasking someone with going through and configuring a new workstation step by step. It simply isn’t necessary.
Instead, by using Automated User Provisioning, you can ensure each employee account is created, configured, and centrally managed. We’ll help you determine what needs to be included in this package and help you design the profile your team members need.
As a result, your new hire sits down to everything required to do their work from the get-go.
## Provisioning Also Bypasses User Error
In addition to its efficiency, provisioning also eliminates the risk of human error that often plagues manual processes. It’s too easy for an admin to assign the wrong permissions to someone… and as a result, either hinder their ability to work via insufficient access or create a security issue in the making by giving them far too much. Neither outcome is acceptable.
By automating provisioning through a centralized master strategy, you eliminate this risk. This means there are fewer support requests to deal with, less admin to manage, and you’re in a better position to maintain your security compliance requirements.
## How to Standardize Your Onboarding Most Effectively
The key is to establish boundaries within your operations. First, management should develop standard profiles for each role so that members of different departments are equipped with precisely what they need… Sales has its customer relationship management systems, while Fulfillment has inventory management. If these profiles are already configured with everything a user will need, onboarding them becomes that much simpler. Alongside this, however, there should also be identity controls. This would allow access permissions to change as a user’s role is updated.
