Getting started

Peoplance is one workspace for running the company: people and time off, hiring, requests and approvals, payroll and finance, CRM and IT assets. You only see the parts your role covers, so the sidebar may be shorter or longer than a colleague’s.

Start from what you need to do

I need to…	Go to
Take time off, or see who is away	My leaves and Availability
Track my day and write my update	My attendance and My standup
Claim an allowance or send another request	My requests
Approve what is waiting for me	Requests inbox and Team leaves
Sign or find a document	eSign requests and Documents
Add someone, or change who can do what	People directory and Roles & permissions
Open a role and run a hire	Job postings and Candidates
Connect Slack, Google or email	Integrations

Guides for payroll and finance, Vector (CRM) and IT assets are still being written. Pages marked To do in the sidebar are not finished yet.

Sign in

Peoplance uses your organization’s Google Workspace account.

1. Open app.peoplance.com.
2. Choose Sign in with Google and pick your work account.

Personal Google accounts can’t sign in. If your work account is refused, ask your administrator to check that your email is on your organization’s domain.

For your security, you’re signed out after a period of inactivity. Sign in again and carry on. When your session has ended you’ll see “Your session has ended. Sign in again.”

A tab left open for a long time, or a laptop that has just woken up, can briefly lose its connection. That doesn’t sign you out: you’ll see a connection message with Try again, and you carry on where you were as soon as we can be reached.

Your dashboard

The dashboard is the first page you see. The sections on it depend on what you can do in Peoplance, so a manager sees their team’s queue and an employee sees their own tasks. Your dashboard may look different from a colleague’s.

Find anything with ⌘K

Press ⌘K (Mac) or Ctrl+K (Windows) anywhere, or use the search box in the header. Search finds pages and people. You only see results you’re allowed to open.

Notifications

The bell in the header shows requests waiting for you and updates on your own requests.

Choose your theme

Pick your colour palette and light or dark mode from the user menu. Your choice is saved to your profile and follows you to every device.

What’s new
