Information can be collected verbally or by separate pieces of papers for somebody to fill in the excels. Various versions are sent back and forth in the company. Version management becomes a time-consuming burden. Is this the way your HR department functions?
Dispose of excel sheets
HR processes are easy to digitalize and automatize. When the basic HR data is transferred from excel sheets into the HR software, interfaces can be built to other software in use, for example to payroll. Implementation of the HR software is planned and scheduled together with different parties involved. Then all HR-related information is available in one software to all users all the time. Availability of real-time information enables smooth reporting.
Modern HR software covers employment lifecycle from recruiting to the end of employment. Artificial intelligence in the software supports managers by producing predictive analysis. For example, potential resignations can be identified and required actions taken. Intelligent analytics and planning enable drilling into company headcount, personnel groups, successor planning, performance and rewarding statistics, trainings and other relevant information. Then it is easy to compile various kinds of reports.
