Offer letter templates (SequiDocs)

Build offer letter templates in SequiDocs > Templates, attach agreements, and control which positions can use them.

Offer letter templates are built in SequiDocs. In the Admin view, go to SequiDocs > Templates, find Offer Letters and select View & Create. A template is tied to positions: when someone is hired, only the ready templates set up for that person's position can be chosen.

Who can do this: Admins whose permission group includes SequiDocs Templates (view, add, edit, delete). Your company must have the SequiDocs add-on, which your company may have turned off. Choosing the template when hiring happens in the Worker view under Hiring.

  1. In the Admin view, open SequiDocs > Templates.

  2. On the Offer Letters card, select View & Create and start a new template.

See Agreement templates and signed agreements.

How a template is picked when hiring

  • In the hire wizard's Organization step, the Offer Letter Template list shows only ready templates whose recipients include the position you chose.

  • If exactly one template fits, it's filled in for you.

  • A position can also name its offer letter template on the position form. See Create and manage departments and positions.

Send documents without hiring

On the Templates page, Send Documents sends templates To employees or To external recipients. This needs the SequiDocs send permission.

On the mobile app

Templates can't be created or edited in the mobile app. Use a web browser.
