Skills app

Great for allowing managers and employees to add results and electronic signatures from the floor, our Skills app provides an intuitive interface for managing and viewing skill development and results.

It is available for iOS phones in the App Store, and for Android phones in the Google Play Store.

What's possible in the app?

• Adding of results

  • Can add attachments to results

  • Can add eSignatures to results

• Viewing of results

  • Can view all results added by yourself for other users if your user account has the right permissions (E.G: admin, super user, custom user, my portfolio user with edit rights)

  • Can view all results added to your employee profile

• Can view and download attachments and e-signatures

This article's screenshots are built using the iOS app. The Android app has the same functionality.

App layout

The AG5 Skills app has 4 separate tabs:

• Home

• Add result

• My portfolio

• Settings

Home tab

When you first open the app, you'll be taken to the home screen. Here (if you have an employee profile of your own), you'll see your Skills overview, a visual overview of the number of your achievements, as well as the number of skills still required for your position.

Next, you'll see a shortcut for adding results. Pressing this blue button will take you to the "Add result" tab.

Below here you'll find your "My results" section, which contains all results against your employee profile that have been added over the last 3 months.

This section is only present if your user account is linked to an employee profile.

Finally, as you scroll down, you'll find the "Results added by me" section. Just like it sounds, this is where all results added by your user account over the last 3 months are displayed.

Be default, the app shows the 3 most recent results added. Tapping on "See more results" will show you all results from the last 3 months.

After tapping "See all results"

In either the "My results" or the "Recently added results" sections, tapping on an individual result will take you to the details of the result. From here, it's possible to view and download attachments and eSignatures.

Add result tab

This tab is where you add results (surprise, surprise). Assuming your user account has the correct edit rights, it's possible to add results for yourself, as well as for others.

First, a date is chosen for the beginning of the result validity.

After "Next" is pressed, you'll be able to choose the employee for the result by tapping on their name. Only one employee can be chosen at a time (we advise using the matrix on the web application if you wish to add multiple results in one go).

Next, search for and tap the skill desired for the result.

Then, a score is chosen. This page is also where you can add remarks or take a picture of any relevant documentation or certification. There are no limits to the number of pictures that can be uploaded.

By tapping the symbol, you'll be able to see the rating level descriptions (if they have been filled out by your organization).

Go back to the score selection page by tapping the < symbol in the top right

Finally, you'll reach the Summary page. Before submitting, this is where it's possible to add an eSignature with a watermark. There is a limit of one eSignature per result.

Sign with your finger and click "Save".

Once the eSignature is saved, you're returned to the summary page where the presence of the eSignature is shown below the "Employee eSignature" button. To proceed, simply tab "Submit" and your result is saved.

My portfolio tab

This tab allows users who have an employee profile to all of their valid and required skills. Tapping on each skill provides details, as above.

For employees with many requirements, the search, sort and filter functions make it easy to find any skill.

Skill result details can be found by tapping on an individual result

• Viewing plannings

  • A blue dot next to a skill indicates that a planning has been created for a skill gap. Tapping the skill with the dot (in our example here, "Customer Relations") takes users to the details page, where the planning deadline is visible: Expanding the planning by tapping on it provides further details:

• Viewing prerequisite rules

  • After tapping into a skill detail page, it's also possible to see when a skill has prerequisite assignments: Expanding the "Skill prerequisites" section shows the rules in full:

Settings tab

Last but not least, the settings tab allows users to:

• Choose active repository (if more than one are available for your user account)

• Choose language

• Contact support

• Log out
