Creating Contract Amendments
Mass Contract Amendments
The Mass Contract Amendments feature allows you to efficiently apply uniform changes, such as annual bonuses or salary increments, to multiple employees simultaneously. This tool eliminates the need for individual contracts and signatures, streamlining the process by letting you configure and review amendments in bulk. Simply enter the necessary details, upload employee data, and submit the changes for approval. This feature significantly reduces administrative effort and ensures consistent updates across the organisation.
Creating New Mass Contract Amendments
Navigate to the Contract Amendments app, select Mass Contract Amendments, and then click on "New/In Progress." After that, click on “Create.”
Filling Out Mandatory Fields
These are the minimal set of fields you must know to start creating a new Mass Contract in the system. All mandatory fields are highlighted with a bold underline. Start with completing them first, as you cannot save your record without completing them.
After filling up these fields, click on Add a line to update the fields.
After selecting the things to update click on “Select” and click on proceed.
After clicking "Proceed," you will advance to the Employee Selection stage. Here, you can add or remove employees as needed and review the employee list to ensure accuracy.
To add an employee click on add employees, then click on add a line.
After clicking "Add a Line," a list of employees will be displayed, allowing you to select the employees you wish to add.
Once you’re done with the employee selection phase, you can click on Confirm Selection and your contract will be moved to the upload details stage.
In the Upload Details stage, you can still remove employees but cannot add new ones. From this stage, you can also download the input template and review the amendments made.
Initiated by HRBP
The "Initiated by HRBP" function within the Contract Amendments app streamlines the process of creating and managing contract amendments initiated by the HRBP. This feature enables HRBPs to initiate amendments for employee contracts efficiently by providing a structured form to input necessary details. It ensures that all required information, such as employee specifics, amendment reasons, and approval statuses, are captured accurately.
Once entered, the amendment can be saved and submitted for approval, facilitating a smooth workflow for contract adjustments. This process not only simplifies contract management but also ensures that amendments are thoroughly reviewed and approved systematically.

Initiated by Recruitment
The "Initiated by Recruitment" section facilitates the process of contract amendments specifically requested by the recruitment team. Similar to the HRBP-initiated process, this functionality allows for the creation and management of contract amendments. However, the primary use case for this section is when an employee wishes to switch their job or department. Recruitment team members can initiate contract amendments under these circumstances, ensuring that all necessary adjustments are made to the employee’s contract. This streamlined process ensures that contract changes are handled efficiently and accurately, reflecting the employee’s new role or department.

The process is similar to the one described for HRBP-initiated contract amendments. This includes all the same steps for creating, reviewing, and approving contract changes. By following these steps, recruitment team members can ensure that necessary contract adjustments are accurately processed, reflecting the employee's new role or department while maintaining consistency with the established amendment procedures.
