Documents Tab Overview

The Documents tab is displayed on an Employee Record after that employee has been onboarded to payroll. This tab is used to store documents associated with the employee. Documents are viewable and uploadable per payroll company. 

When the employee is onboarded to payroll, this tab will automatically be populated with a Signed Documents folder. 

When an employee completes or updates their tax forms in the My Pay section of the R365 Mobile App, a printable version with the employee's electronic signature is uploaded to the Documents tab of their Employee Record. In order for an employee's payments to be calculated, the employee must complete tax forms for all tax jurisdictions associated with their home address and work address. 

The Signed Documents folder contains all documents that the employee has been requested to sign; these will be accessible and downloadable by the employee. The employee will be prompted to sign these documents in the My Pay section of the R365 Mobile App. If the employee is unable to electronically sign a document, an admin user can verify that they have seen the signed document and upload it. All documents in the Signed Documents folder can be downloaded by the employee through My Pay. Learn more about managing signed documents here. 

When Onboarding I-9s is enabled, an I-9 form will be automatically added to the Signed Documents folder when an employee is onboarded to payroll. Completing the signature request for the I-9 form requires that both the employee and employer sign the form. When edited, users can update all potions of the I-9 form, unlike other signed documents where only the signature and uploaded support documents can be updated. Learn more about completing and updating I-9 forms here.
