Deluge in Zoho Services #3: Zoho People
Hello everyone,
In today's post, let's explore the ways you can use Deluge to achieve more with Zoho People. In addition to supporting connections, Zoho People supports Deluge in the following four areas:
1. Validation
Zoho People helps you create validations based on one or more form fields. With Deluge, you can write custom logic that will be triggered when someone clicks the Submit button on a form.
Example
Let's assume an organization has a policy that prevents employees serving their notice period from applying for leave. Custom validation can be applied to the Leave form to restrict entry from employees who are serving their notice period.
See how it works
Note: Refer to the help page to learn how to achieve this automation.
2. Workflow
Zoho People features a workflow automation tool to automate all your HR processes. You can associate Deluge functions with configured workflows.
Example
Let's assume an organization's employees can resign using an Exit Request form. An entry will be automatically added to the Exit Details form once the request is approved by their manager. This automation can be achieved using Zoho People workflows and Deluge.
See how it works
Note: Refer to the help page to learn how to achieve this automation.
3. Scheduler
Zoho People can create schedulers, which will automatically perform the actions of a particular custom function at a time you specify.
Example
Let's assume an organization wants their employees to be mindful of their work hours. Therefore, employee attendance will be analyzed every Sunday, and intimation emails will be sent to employees who worked less than 48 hours. This process can be automated using Scheduler and Deluge.

Note: Refer to the help page to learn how to achieve this automation.
4. Custom button
Zoho People supports custom buttons for different actions making the system more flexible, and your forms more customizable.
Example
Let's assume when a company provides assets to its employees, an entry will be added to the Add Asset form. When the employee returns the asset, the administrator updates the Return Date field and sends a confirmation email to the employee. This process can be automated using Zoho People's custom button and Deluge.
