With To-do templates, your new users will know exactly what to do from their very first login to Teamtailor, with tasks presented on their dashboard. These to-dos can be customized based on their assigned roles in the account, ensuring that the right tasks are displayed and tailored to them.

Create a to-do template

Head over to Settings → Templates → To-dos to create and edit the to-dos for your new starters.

Click the + plus in the top right to start adding a new template.

Template details

Start by defining who this template should be created for.
A user with the access level Company Admin might need to be onboarded in a different way than your Hiring Managers, and this is why you can choose which to-dos certain user roles should have.

Add a name to make sure it is clear whom it refers to.

To-do list

Add the to-dos for the new user, and include the description needed. Keep in mind that you can hyperlink words if you want to refer to specific pages. Finally, add the due date of the task, letting your colleagues know when they are expected to complete this task. The due date added will be relative to the time when the new user logs in for the first time.

Once you are finished with the setup, click Save!

Note! New templates or updates to existing ones will only apply to newly added users, not to those added previously.

How will it look for your users?

After you’ve created the to-do template, it will be used for all users added with that specific access level from now on. It will be displayed in the My to-dos widget as illustrated in the screenshot below:

💡 Ensure that the widget called My to-dos is visible for all your users, in the Dashboard settings. Not quite sure how to do this? Read here.
