How to upload documents

Log in to your Fingercheck account as an Administrator.

Complete the fields for the document. See the table below for a description of each field.
Click Save.

Field	Description

File Description	Enter a short description of the file.
Select File	Click Upload Document and upload the file.
Require Employee to Upload File	Select this checkbox to require the employee to upload the file (for example, if the employee is onboarding or if they need to upload a renewed license certificate). The location where the employee can find the file depends on the Form Type you select: Onboarding: Places the document in the Agreements section of the onboarding screens. Recruiting: Lists the document in the Send E-Offer Letter window when you select Send Offer Letter. (Go to HIRING > Applicants; then open the triple-bar icon to the far right of the applicant’s name.) Public: Makes the document available in the Shared Documents section of employees’ dashboards. Benefits: No longer used. Ignore. Other: Used for general storage. The document is not placed anywhere in Fingercheck.
Share With Employee	Select this checkbox to place the file in Fingercheck. The location depends on the Form Type you select. See the locations listed for Require Employee to Upload File.
Send To Employee	Select this checkbox to send the document to the employee by email after the document has been reviewed and signed. For onboarding, the document is sent after the document is reviewed and signed, and the employee is activated. The email used is the email in the Email field of the employee’s profile.
Form Type	Select where you want the document to live: Onboarding Recruiting Public Benefits: No longer used. Ignore. Other The uploaded document is placed under the corresponding tab on the SETUP tab > HR > Documents page.
Document Type	Select the type of document you are uploading (if you created document types). This helps with further categorization. The Document Type drop-down list is fed from SETUP > HR > System Lookups > DocumentType. For more information, see How to Add More Menu Options for Employee Profiles.
Start Date	Enter the date you want the document to be made available.
End Date	Enter the date you want to end the availability. If you do not want an end date, enter a date far into the future (such as 1/1/2099).

For an example of how this might be used, see How to Upload Employee Documents.

How to see who has viewed or completed your document

Log in to your Fingercheck account as an Administrator.
Click the SETUP tab > HR > Documents.
Click the triple-bar icon for the document, and select Queue.
A panel opens the document queue with the pending and completed results. Pending means that the employee has opened the document but has not signed it. Completed means that the employee has signed the document.
To resend the document to employees:
1. Click Send to Employees.
2. In the window that appears, enter a subject for the email, and enter a message in the large field.
3. At the bottom of the window, click the up arrow to open the panel, and select the employees who should receive the email.
4. Click Send.

How to map Fingercheck data to fillable fields on your form

You can add Fingercheck data to fields on a form that contains fillable fields. PDF files are recommended for this procedure. To add fillable fields, use a PDF editor.

Important: To link Fingercheck data to radio buttons in a fillable form, the related radio buttons must have the same name to avoid confusion when Fingercheck fields are linked (since only one option is allowed with radio buttons). In the Add Custom RadioButtonList Field pop-up window, the name in the Field Name field must match. See How to Add Custom Fields for HR Data for more information.

Tip: Another option is to use a blank document with no fillable sections and then drag and drop anywhere in the doc. If you have at least one fillable field on the PDF, you can only drag and drop into the fillable fields.

Tip: If you have a complicated form with many fillable fields, consider upgrading to the 360 PLUS account and using the Workflows feature instead.

Log in to your Fingercheck account as an Administrator.
Click the SETUP tab > HR > Documents.
Click the triple-bar icon for the document with fillable fields, and select Designer.
The designer opens.
Drag the fields listed on the right side to fields on the form.
The available fields come from the HR data in Fingercheck, including any custom fields you created. (See How to Add Custom Fields for HR Data.) The Now field enters the the current date.

Note: You can add a signature field to any field (regardless of whether the file contains fillable fields).
Click Save.
