Introduction to eCentral

Welcome to eCentral In order to build a talented workforce aligned to JELD-WEN’s key business initiatives, the Company is implementing a formalized Performance Management Program (PMP). The PMP provides a framework for managing employee performance across the organization and establishes a strong foundation for talent development. Currently, the PMP population includes management employees (exempt, salaried, white-collar workforce) at JELD-WEN. At this time, staff and hourly employees are not included in the PMP; therefore, their information will not appear in eCentral. eCentral is the new cloud-based HR system that provides a single location for the administration of HR processes and employee data. Initially, eCentral will be used to govern JELD-WEN’s PMP. eCentral provides talent management tools that can be utilized throughout the year, not only for year-end performance evaluations.

eCentral Support After reviewing this User Guide, you should be able to begin using eCentral and complete your Employee Profile. Please visit the HR Portal for announcements and updates related to eCentral and the PMP. For further assistance, please reach out to your Regional HR Manager.

Navigate the System Navigating eCentral is similar to navigating any other online application or web page. The system is designed with a modern interface so it is easy to use. However, keep the following in mind: 1. 2. 3.

Do not use your Back button to return to a previous page. Instead, use the links provided within eCentral to return to where you were. Disable the pop-up blocker in your web browser. eCentral features require pop-up windows and messages. Don’t double-click. Links, buttons, and other navigational items are executed via a single-click (like other web applications).

The Home Page The Home Page is the landing page when you enter eCentral. From here you can access all the modules and processes in the system. Note: Since you are able to customize the appearance of your Home Page, yours may appear different than what is shown here.

Email a List of Employees The employee directory lets you create a list of employees, and then email all employees on the list. Steps: Email a List of Employees 1. 2. 3. 4.

On the Employee Directory page, click Advanced search. Filter the list of employees by using the search tools (for example, choose Company Location - IL in the Location drop-down list to filter all Illinois employees). Click Search. With the employees displayed in the list, click Email All.

Employee Profile The Employee Profile captures your experience, education, and special skill sets. It acts as your online resume within eCentral that managers can use during the talent review process. Because the Employee Profile enables you to track your accomplishments, career progression, certifications and other information, it is good practice to update it on a regular basis. Each employee has two profiles: the Profile and Public Profile. 

The Profile contains information such as your personal information, skills, and employment history. Your Profile is only visible to you and managers up your team hierarchy. Only you can edit the fields on your Profile – managers up your team hierarchy have read only access.

The Public Profile allows you to search and view information for other users of eCentral. It contains limited information that all employees can see, such as your photo, job title, phone number, email address, and your position on the Org Chart.

Access the Employee Profile To access your profile, choose My Employee File from the eCentral Home menu. (For managers with direct reports in the PMP population, this option reads Employee Files.) You can also access your profile by clicking the gear icon

in the My Info tile on the Home Page.
