Hi ​@Lievaz,

You’d need to give all employees access within the access rights to everyone’s HR information section.

Personally I would rather create a separate category within the profiles and add the birthday & anniversary attributes to this and then add viewing rights to all employees to this section. However, depending the country you’d need the employee’s permissions to publish their birthdays due to privacy data reasons.

Hope that helps?

Hi ​@SabbuSchreiber 

Thanks for your input and support!
I agree that opening up the entire HR information section to all employees isn’t ideal.
 

We’re still looking to activate the “People to Celebrate” section on everyone’s homepage, so that birthdays and work anniversaries are visible to all employees in this homepage section.

Could you advise on the concrete steps we should take to make this work? Fe

• If we create a separate category in the employee profile (e.g. “Anniversaries”) and add attributes like birth date and hire date,
• And then set the visibility of this category to all employees —
  → Will this automatically populate the “People to Celebrate” section?

And/if not, could you clarify:

• Why the section appears by default when no data is shown?
• Whether there’s a configuration or permission setting we need to adjust?
• And if employee consent is required for birthdays, how best to manage that?

We’d love to get this feature working in a way that’s compliant and engaging for everyone.

Thanks again!
Best regards,
Liesbeth

Hi ​@Lievaz,

For your first point regarding the separate category:

• Go to Settings - Employee information
• Create a new section
• Drag and drop the desired attributes (birthday & hire date → I believe the anniversary is calculated automatically from that attribute) from the HR information section to the newly created anniversary section

As for the visibility of the new anniversary section:

• Go to Settings - Employee Roles
• Select the All employees role
• Within the permissions, open up the Personal data section and then give viewing rights to all employees for the newly created anniversary section

Personally, I wouldn’t move the hire date to a separate section. An alternative could be that you give viewing rights to the HR information section to supervisors and they will then see the work anniversaries on the “People to celebrate” dashboard and announce it to the team. Just a thought though.

Hello ​@SabbuSchreiber 

 

Thanks so much for the clear steps — super helpful!

I’ve followed everything as described (see screenshots below), so I think we’re almost there. Still the visibility is still missing of the new anniversary section — it’s not showing up yet as expected.

Could you have a quick look to see what we might still need to adjust?

Thanks again!
