      Hi Parul,

      Thanks for sharing this. We're currently setting up the mobile app for EC Ask HR.

      Can you please elaborate on your point : "Switch for mobile version of Employee Central Service Center enabled in Provisioning."

      I couldn't find this in provisioning. Can you please highlight where I might be able to find this. A screenshot will also help.

      Thanks,

      Pratik.

      Hey Pratik,

      Please follow below steps .

      Go to Admin Center  Mobile Settings  Enable Mobile Features  Modules  Employee Central and select the HR Service Centre option.

      Before you enable the ASK HR application on mobile ensure that ASK HR on the web is configured and turned on.

      Please try and let me know if you still facing issue .

      Regard,

      Hi Parul,

      Thanks for your response.

      The Ask HR application was working on the desktop mode well.

      I've also completed the end to end config as described. But it still doesn't work.

      Does it work in your tenant currently.?

      Thanks,

      Pratik.

      Hello, I am interest in the Knowledgebase capabilities within AskHR, I am aware of using SAP Jam / Mindtouch but what other technologies could be used i.e. SharePoint ?

      Am i also correct in saying the KB capabilties are not present in the Mobile App?

      kind regards

      Andrew
