Key Features

Roles: The plugin installs various roles, including the Lifecycle Events administrator (snhrle.admin), who can manage users and access various features. Important roles include:
- Lifecycle Events administrator: Manages groups and roles.
- Activity writer: Creates activity sets.
- HR Performance Analytics administrator: Modifies Performance Analytics content.
Tables: The following tables are installed to support lifecycle event management:
- Activity [snhrleactivity]: Details activities within an event.
- Activity Set [snhrleactivityset]: Organizes activities into sets.
- HR Lifecycle Events Case [snhrlecase]: Contains information about submitted cases.

Key Outcomes

After installation, the Lifecycle Events administrator role is automatically assigned to the IT system administrator role, facilitating initial management. To ensure security, it is essential to assign this role to at least two users to prevent accidental loss of access. Removing the snhrle.admin role from the admin role limits access to sensitive information.

With the installed components, ServiceNow customers can efficiently manage employee onboarding and transitions, ensuring a structured approach to lifecycle events.

Several types of components install with the activation of the Human Resources Scoped App: Lifecycle Events [com.sn_hr_lifecycle_events] plugin, including tables and user roles.

Note:

The Application Files table lists the components that are installed with this application. For instructions on how to access this table, see Find components installed with an application.

Demo data is available for this feature, and it’s used in some related example tasks.

Note:

The Human Resources Scoped App: Lifecycle Events [com.sn_hr_lifecycle_events] plugin activates the sn_hr_le.min_admin_count system property [sys_properties.list]. This property helps to prevent you from deleting your only Enterprise Onboarding and Transition admin user by requiring a minimum number (the default is two) of active users with this role.

Important:

After the Lifecycle Events plugin is installed, the Lifecycle Events administrator (sn_hr_le.admin) role is automatically assigned to the IT system administrator (admin) role. Use the admin role to assign the sn_hr_le.admin role to at least two users in your organization. If one of the two users is deactivated in the future, the user that remains active can reassign the sn_hr_le.admin role to other people in your organization.

After the sn_hr_le.admin role has been assigned, remove the role from the admin role to suppress the IT system administrator from viewing sensitive HR information. The removal of the sn_hr_le.admin role from admin role ensures that only the Lifecycle Events administrator has access to the sensitive information.

For more information about the process to remove an HR administrator role from the admin role, see Remove HR Administrator role from IT System Administrators.

The Lifecycle Events administrator (sn_hr_le.admin) role with the Delegated Developer (delegated_developer) role can also configure and create COEs. For more information, see HR Centers of Excellence data model.

You can assign these roles to the appropriate roles, groups, or users in your application.

To assign a role to another role, see Add a role to an existing role.
To assign a role to a group, see Assign a role to a group.
To assign a role to a user, see Assign a role to a user.
