HR departments (or managing directors in small and medium-sized companies) are responsible for managing and maintaining personnel data. In the system, you have the option of creating an employee card for each team member. This is similar to customer cards or supplier cards that exist in other areas of the system. This makes it possible to store and maintain all employees in the system with the required data (e.g., master data, confidential data, qualifications, contact data, payment data) and even associated attachments (e.g., contracts).

One of the daily tasks of HR staff is to record absences and inform other employees about them. In the system, you have the option of noting absences (e.g., illness, vacation).
