Digital personnel file & data model
How this is scored
The system of record: employee master data, the digital personnel file, org structure, custom fields, and whether history is kept rather than overwritten.
0 — Not a system of record for employees; the product holds no employee master data or personnel file.
3 — Employee records with master data and documents uploaded to a personnel file; org structure, custom fields and change history are basic or not described.
5 — A digital personnel file with employee master data and document storage, an org chart or department structure, custom fields, and access to the record controlled by role.
8 — Complete record: versioned contract and compensation history with effective dates, document templates with e-signature, org structure supporting multiple entities and cost centres, and granular field-level permissions.
10 — The file is the single source of truth an auditor could work from: full effective-dated history on every field, retention rules per document type, delegated administration per entity, and export that reproduces the record intact.
The Works Council Advocate
HR admin, Documents and E-signing sit in the module list, and the payroll pages describe master data with automatic synchronization from it, so employee records with attached documents are clearly in scope. We found no public information on org structure, custom fields or change history, and role control appears only as payroll-administrator export permissions — who may open the file itself is not documented. 1 2
