Create Employees with Fewer Required Fields

You can now create employee objects with only a last_name; residence, date_of_birth and start_date are no longer required. This change allows employers to send employees onboarding links to fill out their own residences and DOBs, rather than the employer needing to provide this information. Note that while these fields do not block employee creation, they are necessary before paying an employee and will cause a blocking onboard status. Read more about this process in the onboard status guide and the reference to create an employee.
