Teamwork Onboarding Timeline

Onboarding Timeline

The below timeline is the preferred onboarding schedule to ensure implementation goes smoothly. It articulates the necessary meetings, checkpoints, and deliverables to make your success a certainty. Please let your implementation specialist know if you have any questions or concerns. The timeline may be subject to delay in the event that deliverables / training are not completed, as each training builds upon the last!

Training Format

Training for Teamwork is provided through several different avenues. We have a self-guided onboarding experience baked into the lightbulb  within the application, comprehensive support articles within our knowledge base, and 1-on-1 training with a dedicated specialist via Zoom. Please join Zoom meetings from a computer (not a phone), with good wifi, minimal background noise, and screen sharing capabilities. 

Going Live

As soon as you’ve had your welcome call you can begin scheduling and managing time punches. The timeline for tips and payroll integrations is a bit more specific. We will align on a Go Live date for your account (or pilot location if you are a multi-unit operator). The Go Live date must be the first day of a pay cycle.  A schedule should be published in Teamwork for the week of your Go Live.
