Lifecycle triggers — Start date, Termination date, Work anniversary, and Birthday flow into Siit as workflow triggers.

Offboarding on termination. Trigger: Termination date. Actions: revoke sessions, remove app access, equipment pickup, notify manager.
Troubleshooting
Employees missing. Only active employees and future hires sync by default. Confirm status and work email in Namely.
Manager field empty. In Namely, check the employee has a manager assigned on their profile.
"Invalid credentials" on connect. The API token was revoked. Generate a new one and update Siit.
