Training requests

Use this function to register the training requests coming from the employees or their managers. The training requests populate the training plan and the training actions via the open sessions.

The training requests can be individual: in this case, the ID of the employee concerned is specified.

The training requests can be more general when they come from a supervisor or a HR manager. In this case, the request can be made for several employees with a specific theme. You can enter the session or the training period at this level when they are known.

Workflow rules

Training request

For every new training request created, an email is sent to the Human Resources manager for each employee.
This concerns the requests for which:

  • the status is 'Entered',
  • the employee and the contract are specified.

The message sent to the manager contains the following information:

  • the name of the person who made the request,
  • the number and the date of the request, the training period and potentially the session,
  • the participant (first name, name, ID),
  • a line to validate the request and a line to reject the request.

The workflow rule is DEMSTG.
The rejection rule is DEMSTGREG.
The visa rule is DEMSTGVIS.
The associated data model is DEMSTG.
The associated workbench is DEM.

You can enter the request number. If you do not enter this number, a number is automatically assigned to the request when you create it.

Tab Characteristics

Some characteristics of the request are retrieved from the session if the session is specified, or from the training period if the training period is specified.

The employee can make a training request, or a manager can enter the training requests for their employees.

Note:

 A request cannot be modified if it is part of the final training plan or if it has generated a registration.

Tab Participants

If the source of the request is 'Individual' (in the Characteristics tab), the ID of the employee is displayed in the Participants table.

If the source of the request is 'Hierarchy', it is possible to enter nominal requests and non-nominal requests.

  • To enter nominal requests: enter 1 in the Number column and select the employee.
  • To enter non-nominal requests: enter the number of participants in the Number column and enter at least a value in the Category column.
Note:

 If the request is hierarchical, several lines are available for entry.

The requests have two types of tracking: a manual tracking and an automatic tracking.

  • Use the manual tracking to know the status of the request ('Entered', 'Denied', 'Accepted', and so on). This tracking can be configured.
  • Use the automatic tracking to know if: 
    • the request has been accepted in the final training plan (Plan),
    • the request has led to the registration of the employee for the training period (Registration),
    • the training of the employee is over and the session is closed (Completed).
