Signing In & the Dashboard
The login screen is the entry point to Nexa People. After successful authentication, each user lands on a personalized dashboard whose content depends on their role.
- Used by
- Every user — employees, HR staff, managers, org owners, and the platform super admin — signs in through the same login screen.
- Includes
- Signing In, The Home Dashboard.
Roles, Users & Permissions
Nexa People controls what each person can see and do through a combination of a role tier (a broad access category) and a Role Template (a fine-grained permission matrix that can be customised per organisation). The two layers work together: the role tier gates entire sections of the app, while the template controls individual forms and actions within those sections.
- Used by
- Org owners and admins manage users and assign Role Templates.
- Includes
- Role Tiers, Role Templates, Managing Org Users.
Employee Portal vs HR View
Nexa People shows different navigation and page content depending on whether the signed-in user is an employee or an HR-tier user. Both roles use the same application URL; the role tier and permission template determine what is rendered.
- Used by
- All users — this is an automatic behaviour, not a setting you configure.

Organizations & Multi-Tenancy
Nexa People is a multi-tenant platform. Each organisation's data is completely isolated from every other — employees, settings, payroll, attendance records, and all other data belong to one organisation and are never visible to another, even if they share the same Nexa People instance.
- Used by
- Organisation owners and the platform super admin interact with these features.
- Includes
- How Tenant Isolation Works, Self-Signup (Creating a New Organisation), Super-Admin Organisation Provisioning.
Notifications
Nexa People's notification system alerts users when something needs their attention — an Employee Portal request is waiting for approval, a request they submitted has been approved or rejected, or a holiday has been added to the calendar.
- Used by
- All roles receive notifications relevant to them.
- Includes
- The Notification Bell, The Notifications Page, How Notifications Are Created.
Approvals Workflow
Many actions in Nexa People follow an approval workflow: an employee submits a request, the request is routed to an approver, and the approver accepts or rejects it. This pattern applies across Attendance (amendments, remote work, shift changes, worksheets), Leave, and Payroll (advance salary, overtime, loans, and other salary requests), as well as Employee-module requests (info requests, resignations, suggestions).
- Used by
- Employees submit requests; HR managers, admins, and designated approvers act on them.
- Includes
- How an Employee Portal Request Is Submitted, How HR / Approvers Act on Requests, Approval Routing Configuration.
