Explore Agentnoon's Latest Product Updates - November 2024
November Highlights
This month, we focused on enhancing the organizational design process with impactful updates, including Forecast V2, bulk detachment of people from positions, and scenario merging, enabling you with greater control and efficiency.
🚀 What's New?
1. Merge Scenarios
You can now combine scenarios by importing people from one scenario into another directly through Data Management.
Notes:
- For better planning, create a blank scenario and import people from multiple others.
- Avoid conflicts by ensuring no overlapping changes for the same individuals.
2. Forecast v2
We’ve supercharged forecasting to give you more control over your workforce data. Now you can- Forecast full compensation for your employees, including components like benefits, taxes and more.
- Forecasting is now available for headcount, where 1 indicates an occupied position and 0 indicates a vacant one, providing a clearer view of future and current workforce availability.
- Forecast both headcount and fully loaded compensation by attributes like people, departments, or customized fields.
3. Bulk Detach People from Positions
You now have the ability to bulk detach employees from positions, simplifying large scale changes. You can now select multiple employees, detach them from their positions, and reassign those positions.
4. Conditional Statements in Formulas
We've introduced support for conditional logic within formulas, allowing for more nuanced data analysis.
Example: Suppose you need to calculate severance for employees marked as "RIF" (Reduction in Force). The formula could be structured as:
ifElse(in("RIF", [scenarioState]), max(min([Service_Years], 25), ifElse([Level] <= 7, 5, ifElse([Level] <= 12, 7, 19))), 0) * ([Full_Compensation] is / 25)
This formula considers service years and employee level to determine the severance amount, ensuring precise calculations based on your specific criteria.
