How the score works

What matters for mid-sized companies

  1. Configurable approval workflows

    Different departments and locations route changes differently.

  2. Self-service reporting

    HR and finance need headcount and turnover data without vendor tickets.

  3. Integration with accounting and benefits carriers

    Reconciliation and enrollment files are recurring manual work if not automated.

  4. EEO-1 data readiness

    Larger employers file EEO-1 workforce data, so the HRIS should store job category, sex, and race or ethnicity in a reportable form.
