Enhancement: Retaining Resigned Employees
Admins can now retain employees even after resignation approval—before final clearance—by using the Revoke option in the Offboarding and Workflow sections. This restores the employee’s status to active, halts offboarding processes, and ensures uninterrupted payroll, benefits, and system access. Ideal for cases where resignations are withdrawn or the organization decides to retain the employee. Applicable for: All India and Middle East (ME) customers
