Track resignation status from Employee profile

With this update in Keka, employees who submit a resignation can now:

• See the real‑time status of their resignation request.

• View the names of everyone in the approval/acknowledgement chain, and see whose action is still pending. 

• View their confirmed last working day, based on your company’s exit policy.

• So HR gets fewer follow‑up queries, and the offboarding experience becomes clearer.

Default setting & how to turn it off

• This setting is ON by default for all tenants (new and existing) in Keka. 

• To disable it:

  1. Go to Org → Exits → Settings → Resignation Settings

  2. Uncheck the box labeled: “Show resignation approval/acknowledgement status to the employee in their profile.” 

How it works (according to your configuration)

If you have an Approval Chain Enabled

• The employee sees a banner:

  “Your resignation request dated [date] is awaiting approval from [Name] + 2 more reviewers.” 

• Clicking the banner shows the full list of reviewers.

• Once all approvals are completed, the banner updates to show the last working day.

• Before final acceptance, the employee can withdraw their resignation.

If you have an Acknowledgement Chain Enabled

• The employee sees:

  “Your resignation request is awaiting acknowledgement from [Name] + 2 more reviewers. Your last working day will be [date].” 

• Clicking this shows all reviewers, with the last working day clearly mentioned.

If No Chain is Configured

• Resignation is accepted immediately.

• The employee sees:

  “Your resignation request has been accepted and your exit process has started. Your last working day will be [date].”

Special Scenarios

If the resignation is rejected by a reviewer or cancelled by an admin, a banner appears in the employee’s profile with the reason for rejection or cancellation.
