Configuring the New Team Member Widget

Preparation Steps

Verify Key Employee Data:

  • Employee Hire Dates: Check and update the employee hire dates in the Teamflect system at Active Users or contact your IT team to update this data in Microsoft Entra ID if the attribute values are set as 'synced with Microsoft 365' as their data source, which can be checked at User Attributes.

  • Accurate data is essential for the widgets to function properly, as they rely on these details to display new team member information on the 'My Organization' page.

1. Access the Widget Settings:

  • Navigate again to the 'Widgets' section at the bottom of the Intranet section at the following link: Admin Center page.

2. Enable the Widget:

  • Locate and toggle on the "Enable new team members widget." This enables the widget to function.

3. Functionality:

  • With this widget activated, the system identifies new hires based on their recorded hire date (either in Microsoft or Teamflect) and showcases these new team members on the 'My Organization' page. This feature helps current employees learn about and welcome new colleagues, enhancing integration and team cohesion.


New Team Member Widget Use Case

The New Team Member Widget streamlines onboarding by quickly introducing new hires to the team, enhancing team visibility, and ensuring that everyone is informed about new members. It provides easy access to new member details and contact information, fostering a welcoming environment and enhancing engagement among existing employees. Additionally, the widget facilitates internal communication by sharing new hire information across departments, promoting unity and collaboration within the organization.
