Human Resources

Introduction to Employees

It is important to understand the difference between employees and users.

An employee is a person for whom your company is collecting and processing data.

Each employee within the company is loaded onto the system as an employee, with their details.

Employee details relate to what the company needs to know about its employees and can include the following:

  • Personal details, e.g. Phone number and e-mail address
  • Banking details
  • Loan details
  • Crafts details (skill or job title)
  • Time and attendance details

By loading your employees correctly, you will be able to keep track of employee shifts and availability and ultimately manage your Human Resources more efficiently.

A user is a person who requires access to the system and therefore will require a user login and password.

When setting up your Human Resources module, it would be helpful to gather a list of your employees with their details.

Reviewing the following topic will give you a good idea of what type of information is required.
