Using Self-Service
Self-Service is your personal area of Open Core HR. It is where you check your profile, apply for leave, submit expenses, view your attendance, read announcements, and more.
Opening Self-Service
You can reach Self-Service in two ways:
- Click the apps button (the grid icon) in the top bar, then choose Self Service.
- Click your name or photo in the top-right corner, then choose My Profile — this opens Self-Service on your profile page.
Once you are in Self-Service, the green left-hand menu stays with you as you move between pages.
What's in the menu
The left menu groups everything you can do for yourself:
- Dashboard — a summary of your leave, attendance, announcements and upcoming events. See Your dashboard.
- Help & Documentation — opens the public documentation site.
- Attendance — your attendance records and today's check-in status.
- Leave — apply for leave, view your leave requests, check your leave balance, and request a compensatory off.
- Expenses — submit expense claims and view the ones you have already submitted.
- Announcements — company notices for you and your location.
- Tasks — tasks assigned to you.
- Holidays — the holiday list for the year at your location. See Holidays.
- Documents — your personal documents.
- My Assets — equipment assigned to you.
- My Loans — loans recorded against you.
- HR Policies — policies you can read and acknowledge.
- My Warnings — disciplinary warnings issued to you.
- My Appeals — appeals you have raised against warnings.
Your profile is not in this menu — open it from the My Profile link under your name in the top-right corner. See Your profile.
Note
Some menu items only appear if your organisation uses that feature or your account has access to it. If you don't see something listed here, it may not be enabled for you.
