🚀 What's New?

1. Rate Card 

The Rate Card feature enables dynamic management of compensation and other key data fields. Auto populate compensation and other fields based on some deciding attributes like job family, job location, and project.

  • Map and configure rate cards based on your organization’s unique requirements.
  • Auto populate compensation and attributes directly within scenarios using rate card attributes, reflecting real-time changes.

Here's a link to a more detailed guide to using Rate Cards in Agentnoon.

2. Positions Planning 

Position Planning enables you to manage positions and assignments within your organization. This allows you to create position-based scenarios, assign employees to positions, and adjust assignments while keeping key data like compensation intact.

  • Easily assign or replace employees in positions while automatically mapping key data like compensation, ensuring updates are efficient and accurate.

  • Create scenarios where you can assign people to positions, allowing you to visualize potential organizational structures.

  • Export position and assignment details to CSV files for quick analysis, making it easier to review and optimize your workforce planning.

✅ Improvements 

  • Revamped Spotlight Design

    Updated the spotlight feature to enhance visibility, providing a clearer and more intuitive user experience.

  • 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:

    fElse(in("RIF", [scenarioState]), max(min([Service_Years], 25), ifElse([Level] <= 7, 5, ifElse([Level] <= 12, 7, 19))), 0) * ([Full_Compensation] / 25)

    This formula considers service years and employee level to determine the severance amount, ensuring precise calculations based on your specific criteria.
