Adding an employee
Who can do this: Any authenticated user with access to the target sub-organization.
Steps
-
In the left sidebar, click Employees (
/employees). -
Click Add Employee (top right, next to Import).
-
Fill in the Add Employee form, organized into sections:
Basic Info
- Sub-Organization — required if your account has access to more than one org.
- Full Name — required.
- Email — required.
Work Details
- Job Title, Department — optional.
Contact & Start Date
- Phone, Start Date — optional.
Notes
- Notes — optional free text.
-
Click Add Employee to save.
Finding employees and assigning items
- Use the search bar ("Search by name, email, department…") to filter the list. The table paginates at 25 rows per page.
- Click an employee's row to open their detail view. From there you can assign existing hardware or software to them directly (separate "Search hardware…" / "Search software…" boxes) — this is different from the Add Employee form, which only creates the employee record.
- To edit an employee, open their row and update the same form — the submit button reads Save Changes.
Notes
- Adding an employee counts against your organization's pooled asset limit — see https://docs.itdirectory.app/tutorials/billing.
- Employees can also be bulk-imported via the Import button, or synced automatically from Microsoft Entra ID — see https://docs.itdirectory.app/tutorials/connectors. Bulk import accepts CSV files only (Excel files aren't supported), up to 5MB and 20,000 rows.
