Support Jint
  • Updated

Web part overview

The Professional Anniversaries web part automatically displays the professional anniversaries in your Digital Workplace. It creates social bond to boost employee engagement and help your employee to know each other. It also displays social news with no maintenance cost from your communication teams.

You can select a range date and personalize the perimeter with Entra ID groups and request to get the right anniversaries depending on the web part's context.

 

User functionality

The Professional Anniversaries web part displays the upcoming professional anniversaries such as name, job title, date of arrival and seniority.

The button on the right of the employee's profile picture is used to communicate with him or her through Microsoft's Team.

Use cases

This web part can be used to :

  • Display the professional anniversaries of the next week in your department
  • Display the professional anniversaries of the next month in your project

Prerequisites

The Professional Anniversaries web part uses information from your Entra ID to display the list of anniversaries. We use the "Employee hire date" property to display the professional anniversaries.

Employee Hire Date in Entra ID Portal

In order for anniversaries to be displayed automatically, the Entra ID administrator in charge of managing user profile for your company must set the "Employee hire date" property for each account.
This property can be updated manually, or automatically via the automations you set up to manage the arrival of your new employees.
