Pro Tips

🎯
Candidates is your single source of truth. Every compliance record, placement, interview, and application links back to the Candidate record via Contact Lookup. Open any candidate record and use Deep Search to see their complete history across all linked templates in seconds.
📅
Use calendar dates aggressively. Set Job Order Start Date Targets, Placement Start/End Dates, Contract Renewals, I-9 Expiration Dates, and Background Check Expirations on the calendar. Your daily calendar view becomes your real-time operational dashboard.
#️⃣
Hashtag your candidates by skill. Add skill hashtags like #CDL, #BILINGUAL, #FORKLIFT, #OSHA30, or #HEALTHCARE to candidate records. Deep Search finds all candidates with that hashtag instantly — no need to maintain separate skill databases.
💰
Transaction Logs replace invoice software. The Transaction Log on Client Invoices tracks every payment received with running balance. Use it to track partial payments, aging balances, and payment history without exporting to a separate system.
🔐
Protect sensitive compliance records. Use record-level password protection on Background Check and Drug Test records containing sensitive adverse findings. Individual record passwords keep confidential screening data secure from general staff access.

Make It Your Own

This collection is a professionally designed starting point, not a locked system. Every template, field, and menu assignment is yours to customize to match how your staffing agency actually operates.

✚ CREATE

Build your own templates from scratch for anything not covered — skills assessment rubrics, onboarding packet checklists, payroll reconciliation logs, client satisfaction surveys, or workers' comp claim trackers.

✎ MODIFY

Fine-tune any template: change field labels, enable or disable features, update purpose text, or reassign menus. Make each template fit your specific workflow.

❌ REMOVE

Delete templates you don't need, or simply toggle them to Inactive to hide them from menus and browse views without losing the design for later use.

🔬 EXPAND

Combine templates from multiple collections or mix collection templates with your own custom creations for a system that's uniquely yours.
