The session will cover a first look at the new features in v1.5, a walk through of whats planned for v1.6 and some details of the longer term roadmap.
For those who are finding HR a headache for their organisation, or are already considering CiviHR, or just plain want to know what all the fuss is about, this is the session for you!

V1.5 - Walkthrough

- The self service portal
Staff now have a self service portal where they can login to request leave, report sickness, update their details, search the staff directory and much more.

- Job contract histories
The Job contracts module has been updated to have a full audit history, support for term changes to have effective dates in the past or future and an improved user interface.

- Tasks and assignments
Tasks and assignments have been given a complete overhaul with a completely new task management extension which sits on top of the existing CiviCRM activity structure.
