What's new in Zoho People: December 2022

As we step into the new year and look forward to future successes, we at Zoho People wanted to take a moment to highlight newly-introduced product features and enhancements from December 2022. Here are the updates:

• Enhancement to search settings

The search settings under the general setup page enable organizations to decide how key employee information can be searched using the search bar. Before, administrators could provide employees with an option to hide or show their mobile numbers based on their preference. With our latest enhancement to this setting, if employees prefer to show their mobile number, their peers, manager, or anyone in the organization can search for their profile using that number. Learn more about this search settings enhancement.

• Enhancement to timesheet data export

The Timesheet module allows administrators to export timesheet data, which helps HR teams prevent data loss. Before this enhancement, only administrators had permission to export timesheet data. Now, specific role data admins, location admins, and timesheet module admins can also perform this action. Learn more about timesheet data export. 

• New enhancement to online tests in LMS

The Online Tests feature in Zoho People's LMS allows course administrators to limit the maximum number of times learners are allowed to retake a test. However, if a learner has run out of attempts and you want to increase their maximum, that is possible too. One of the recent enhancements to this feature triggers an email and feeds notification that will be sent to the learner whenever they are provided with additional attempts for online tests.

Final thoughts

With these enhancements, we hope to simplify every aspect of HR processing and make it a breeze for your HR teams and employees. Give them a try and let us know how useful they were to your organization. For questions, please write to support@zohocorp.com.
