Why this matters to the Head of HR
For a Head of HR, the employee and organisation model is more than a database. It determines which policy applies, who can see what, how approvals route and how historical decisions can be explained.
Use this page as a product-evaluation path: start with the operating problem, inspect the representative interaction, then verify the exact policy and output in the live product.
Core HR capabilities
Designed around the full operating workflow.
Configure the module around your structures, policies, ownership and approval model—not a generic process diagram.
Organisation model
Configure business units, departments, functions, locations, cost centres, grades, designations and employee groups.
Dated lifecycle events
Record confirmation, transfer, promotion, manager change, role change, salary revision and exit with effective dates.
Policy scoping
Apply policies through employee group, department, location, business unit, grade or employment type.
Documents and expiry
Link employee documents, letters, assets and expiry reminders to the governed record.
Validated bulk import
Validate organisation and employee data before commit, with clear error reporting instead of silent partial imports.
Connected operating workflow
Follow the action from policy to owner to downstream result.
The exact screens differ by module, but the operating principle remains the same: the applicable rule, current owner, status, effective date and history stay visible.
More dependable payroll inputs Faster responses to business questions Lower dependence on individual spreadsheets

Use a representative employee, workforce group and effective date. Follow the transaction through owner, status and downstream impact.
Current boundary
Scope honestly before committing.
Recruitment and resume parsing are not presented as native duoHR capabilities. Candidate handoff can come from Impact Hire or another ATS.
A working view, not a static report
Give the team clear status and exception signals.

Questions about implementation
Bring this context into the demo Evaluate Core HR in your policy context.
