Guides by role

This section answers “What do I need to do in Rifena today?” Each guide follows the normal rhythm of one role. Longer journeys involving several people link to one canonical workflow instead of repeating it.

Employee Portal · My home For employees Track your workday, submit requests, and read your own information. Approvals · Notifications For managers Decide pending work and follow your team. Employees · Lifecycle · Attendance For HR Maintain people, lifecycle, organisation, and attendance data. Payroll · Employee Spend For payroll and accounting Close attendance, run payroll, pay, and reconcile.

One person may use more than one guide. A team lead, for example, still performs personal tasks as an employee and also decides team requests as a manager.

Why might your menu look different?

Rifena shows functions according to your assigned role and data scope. When a colleague sees something you do not, check access before treating it as a product fault.

How to use a role guide

1. Choose the role closest to the task you need to complete.
2. Start from its normal cadence: beginning of day, when a request arrives, weekly, or period end.
3. When the guide links to a workflow, follow that workflow to completion instead of combining fragments from several pages.
4. After each action, read the displayed state and the owner of the next step.

• Get started — sign in, select an organisation, and learn the interface.
• Monthly payroll cycle — the closest hand-off between HR, managers, and payroll.
• Glossary — look up language used in the interface.
• Support — recover when a function is missing, a request cannot be submitted, or a state does not change.
