Workflow automation
Onboarding and offboarding, no lost laptops or forgotten tasks.
A new hire starts Monday but IT has not created their account, so they sit idle for two days. An employee resigns and keeps the laptop for three months. Synthro creates the checklists automatically — IT gets a task, HR gets a task, the manager gets a task — nothing forgotten, nothing lost.
The problem
Chaotic onboarding wastes two days. Structure makes day one productive.
Every onboarding is different
Sarah got IT access on day one. John waited three days. Lisa never got building access. Nobody follows the same process. Synthro creates templates — IT access, building key, manager intro, all on day one — the same process for everyone, every time.
You forget onboarding steps
A new hire starts Monday. You remember the email, forget the laptop, and they sit idle on day one. Synthro schedules tasks automatically — order the laptop seven days before, create the email three days before — so nothing is forgotten.
New hires wait because nobody got reminded
IT was meant to create the account and forgot, so the new hire sits for two days with no access — and you only find out when they complain. Synthro sends reminders, so tasks get done on time, not two days late.
Missing documents delay everything
Day five: "Where is your ID copy?" "You never asked." Payroll is delayed and compliance is at risk. Synthro gives the employee a document checklist on day one — ID, tax form, contract, bank details — uploaded before payroll runs.
New hires have no idea what to do
First day: "Go sit over there." They wait three hours, nobody explains anything, and they feel lost. Synthro shows a welcome message and task list on first login, so there is clear direction from minute one.
Leavers walk off with the laptop
An employee quits, you forget to collect the laptop and key, and two months later they still have it — R15,000 gone. Synthro's offboarding checklist covers asset return, exit interview and final payslip, so nothing is forgotten.
The system
Complete workflow management, start to finish.
Templates by role
Build reusable onboarding and offboarding templates with tasks, document checklists and welcome messages for every role.
Automated reminders
Tasks are assigned to staff, managers or HR with deadlines tied to start and end dates. Email reminders keep everyone on track.
Clean offboarding
Track asset returns, capture exit interviews and run a final clearance workflow, with a full history kept for every employee.
How it works
Onboarding and offboarding in four steps.
Create a template
Set up an onboarding or offboarding template with tasks, documents and timelines for a specific role.
Assign to the employee
When hiring or off-boarding, the template is applied and the tasks are scheduled automatically.
Track progress
Employee and manager complete tasks; the system sends reminders and tracks the completion percentage.
Complete the workflow
All tasks done, documents uploaded, exit interview complete — ready for final approval.
