## ADD INFORMATION TO EMPLOYEE RECORD

There are two options for adding information to an existing employee record:

1. via the employee card pop-up presented upon completion of [creating the employee](https://tangram.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/TGKB/pages/616235150)

## UPDATE PROFILE PICTURE

Assigning a profile picture to an employee is a recommended process, as it helps to distinguish between resources easily.  

Employees can update their own profile pictures in **my settings**, or administrators can also update an employee’s profile picture in the the **resources** module via the **information** tab. 

- Click on **light blue box **with the employee’s initials or the existing profile picture
- Click the **upload** icon

- Select your **image** > click **open**
