HRM Use Cases: Onboarding, Leave, Payroll & Performance

People ops breaks when contracts live in Drive, leave lives in Slack, and payroll lives in another tool.

Tekvers ships HRM as a suite module for the full employee lifecycle — linked to scheduling and Finance via Suite Platform.

Product: /products/hrm · Guide: HRM buyer's guide


Use case 1: New hire onboarding

HR creates employee, assigns department, uploads documents and contract. Leave balances initialize from policy.

Outcome: One employee record from day one — not a folder plus a spreadsheet row.


Use case 2: Leave request approved

Employee submits leave. Manager approves in portal. Balance decrements.

Outcome: Payroll run can exclude those days without HR re-keying Slack approvals.


Use case 3: Payroll posted

Payroll admin runs period, reviews lines, posts with audit trail.

Outcome: Clear record of who posted, when, and what changed — not a mystery export.


Use case 4: Performance review cycle

Manager completes performance review tied to employee profile; training records updated for compliance.

Outcome: HR and leads share one timeline on the employee — not email attachments.


Use case 5: Time entries for hourly staff

Workers log time entries; foundation for payroll and project allocation.

Outcome: Hours flow toward payroll processing instead of manual timesheet consolidation.
