How to Use the Lifecycle Review

The Lifecycle Review gives admins a single screen to monitor every employee's onboarding and offboarding progress — who's preboarding, who's live, who's leaving, and where the bottlenecks are.

Where to Find It

  • Go to Employees in the main menu.
  • Click the Lifecycle tab in the organisation view.

Employee Table

Each row shows:

  • User — employee name and avatar
  • Profile Type — the employee profile template assigned (e.g. Default, Manager)
  • Preboard — task completion fraction (e.g. 4/5)
  • Start — employment start date
  • Onboard — onboarding task fraction
  • Resignation — resignation date (if applicable)
  • Offboard — offboarding task fraction
  • Status — current lifecycle stage badge

Fraction columns show how many tasks have been completed out of the total (e.g. "4/5" means 4 of 5 tasks are done). Green means complete, amber means in progress.

Tip: Click any column header to sort the table — click again to reverse the order.

Actions

Click the three-dot menu (⋮) on any row to see available actions:

  • View profile — opens the employee's full lifecycle timeline in their profile.
  • Send/Resend package — triggers the preboarding package email to the employee.
  • Send preboarding forms — emails any pending preboarding form links to the employee.
  • Send onboarding forms — emails any pending onboarding form links to the employee.
  • Send offboarding forms — emails any pending offboarding form links to the employee.
  • Send post-termination forms — emails any pending post-termination form links to the employee.

Note: The "Send forms" options only appear when the employee has incomplete user-task forms configured for that phase.

How Send Forms Works

  1. Click the three-dot menu (⋮) on an employee row.
  2. Select the relevant Send [phase] forms option (e.g. Send preboarding forms).
  3. A confirmation dialogue appears — click Confirm to proceed.
  4. Timecloud sends the employee an email containing personalised links to each pending form.
  5. Once sent, a reminder email is automatically scheduled if the forms are not completed within the configured reminder threshold.

The employee receives an email with a unique link for each form. Once they complete a form, it's marked as done on the lifecycle timeline. If a form has already been submitted, the employee will see a friendly "Already Complete" message if they try to open the link again.

Exporting Data

Click Export CSV to download the current filtered view as a spreadsheet. The export respects your active filters and sort order — if you're viewing only preboarding employees, only those rows will appear in the file.
