Employee Portal Dashboard
The Employee Portal Dashboard sits at the very front of the Gatekeeper Employee Portal, Employee Portal Users will be routed to the Dashboard after logging in.
The Employee Portal Dashboard is designed to give users an overview of all Company Forms available for submission and an overview of all submitted Forms.
The Dashboard features 2 main modules:
- Company Forms
- My Open Forms
Company Forms
The Company Forms module displays a list of all forms that are available for submission via the Employee Portal.

The Open Forms module displays all active forms that have been submitted by the Employee Portal User and are awaiting approval.

You can sort your open forms as well as begin message threads with other parties involved in the form approval and see any unread messages that you have using the blue Mail icon next to the form name.
Tip: You can see an overview of all messages across your forms by clicking the mail icon in the top menu.
