Employee File Cabinet







Previous Topic  Next Topic 

The AWARDS Employee File Cabinet enables users with the appropriate authority to upload files to attach them to the records of a specific employee.  Once uploaded, those files can be accessed by anyone with the authority to view that employee's staff information.

Uploaded files open in a new window, outside of AWARDS, using the software that was used to create them (i.e., Adobe Acrobat or Microsoft Word). If changes are made to a file once it has been opened and the updated file is saved on the user's device, those updates will not be reflected in AWARDS; rather, the updated file must be uploaded in place of the original version. 

  TIP: In addition to the Employee File Cabinet, separate Client and Agency File Cabinets are also available in AWARDS.  The Client File Cabinet enables users to attach client-specific documents to file cabinets accessible within individual face sheets and the Services-Individual module.    The Agency File Cabinet enables users to attach general agency-wide documents to a centrally located File Cabinet accessible to all users.
