Onboarding managers use the Create New Hire button on the My Tasks page in Onboard Manager. This launches the Create New Hire page and onboarding managers can complete all the required* fields and maybe optional fields and then save. Once the new hire logs onto Onboard, the hire will appear on the Currently Onboarding page in Onboard Manager as a part of the new hire list. > [!NOTE] > Note > > Previously, Talent Suite supported only the editing of personal information of a new hire that had been imported into the Talent Suite via integration with the Onboard Configuration application or the BrassRing application. **Figure 47.

Infinite Talent Acquisition Suite user type permissions are regrouped under a single category, New Hire Management. The single category enables configuration engineers to identify and enable required Onboard features easily for clients. Previously, on the Manage Users: User Type screen, there were the following seven permissions categories: Job Requisitions, Applicants, Administration, Screens & Assessment, Activities, Tasks, and Reports. Now, there are three permissions categories: New Hire Management, Administration, and Reports. Reports and Administration settings remain common to both the Talent Suite and Onboard Configuration applications. On the System Configuration: Manage System Settings screen, in Onboard Settings, the Enable Talent Suite Configurations check box must be selected to display New Hire Management. To switch back to Onboard Configuration (and view the seven permissions categories), go to the Manage Users: User Type screen, and select the Show Legacy Capabilities check box. Note: There is no need to switch back to Onboard Configuration. The New Hire Management category contains all needed functionality. The Assign Capabilities configuration is performed as follows. 1.
