Grouping the documents in the folder view is one of the worst changes Access Group has done since taking over People HR. Now is so difficult to access quickly a document if needed as it was before in order of the date you uploaded the document.
Describe the Challenge | As per the below attachment it makes no sense to group them in folder and very difficult to access documents |
Great news to hear we are to be given a choice re the folder set-up. Is there any indication of a timescale for a 'backlog' item? It doesn't sound as if this will be any time soon....
Thanks

Hi all, thanks for the feedback. We have added an item to our backlog to give users the option of whether to use the folder view or list view for documents.
Thanks
Paul
I like the grouping of the documents however I agree with the need for chronological order also. Also if an employee is a re-hire all their documents just go into the "pot" which in my opinion should be kept separate.
I actually appreciate the feature as it helps categorise documents, especially when you have multiple ones assigned to users. However, I would like to see an Archive folder so that you simply have the most recent one readily avaialble in the employee's folder
Definitely not an improvement, we should have the option of sorting the list alphabetically or chronologically at the very least.
An option of categorised or chronological would be ideal. In the categorised list, sorting the list alphabetically rather than some apparently random ordering would good as well!
Totally agree. It would be good for something to be added next to a document folder when an email gets sent to an employee stating they have a document to review. This would make it easier for them to see what document has been added rather than having to go through all the document folders one by one

Personally I disagree, this system makes it easy for us to quickly locate a document rather than scrolling through a long list. I think it would be fair to say it depends how the individual organisation is using this section. So maybe instead of asking for them to remove the feature (which many voted to implement) maybe a simple addition of a 'View All' button would improve the feature, to work for all?
Agree 100% - could be an option but definitely preferred the old listing
Totally agree. We much preferred the chronological list. An option to switch this off would be better
The new Document folders are making my life difficult and have decreased the efficiency of the site. Please remove the folders, so that all documents are stored in one place, easily seen and identified.
This is not an improvement. It's incredibly difficult to find documents, see the latest documents and filter. This change is not 'People HR' friendly and is detrimental to HR professionals trying to carry out their work. It's a disaster; please revert back to old view.
I agree with some of the other comments, if changed this should be an option as I like the current layout.
Having now worked with this change for several weeks, I agree with other sentiments that this is not a user friendly change. I would like to see the ability to sort by document in chronological order and sort by categories alphabetically please.
Absolutely ridiculous change to the system. Do you have a user panel that you actually speak to about your changes as really would love to meet them as they can't be using the system for hundreds of staff and multiple companies and sites on a daily basis.
Who asked for this to be changed? It's so difficult to manage the documents now. There is no clear order. It's not even alphabetical. I need to see documents in chronological order. Was this tested by users before being rolled out?!
can I suggest that if anything is changed (we love it so don't want it to change) that its changed to an option so you can keep it or turn it off, this will then ensure those who love it can keep it and those who don't can switch it back to the old view
This update does not compliment HR professionals or their work. It is really hard to see documents that were last updated and is affecting the efficiency and accuracy of work. Please change.
I fully agree with the comments below re the change in Documents View. Under the 'classic' view we could sort by folder if desired, but mainly used the chronological update history as a snapshot of an employee's record. If there is an error in a folder you have to use search, hoping you can remember the file name and that there wasn't a typo rendering a search useless! Please revert or at least give an option to choose 'classic' or 'new' layout. And please don't lable any change as "an improvement" when that is clearly subjective!!
