General Information on HR-Expert

Webdesk HR-Expert is an application for HR staff to manage employees and the internal organizational elements. It is a stand-alone application that builds on Webdesk EWP. To be able to use Webdesk HR-Expert, Webdesk EWP must therefore be installed, and every HR-Expert user must also be created as a Webdesk master record.

Webdesk HR-Expert uses the same database as Webdesk EWP and, in addition, additional tables to store the information to be managed.

Functions of Webdesk HR Expert

Permission Options

The permission to access Webdesk HR-Expert can be controlled by assigning a dedicated role in the Webdesk Administrator. Customizing masks, menu items, or reports in HR-Expert is only possible for the administrator.

Using HR-Expert Reports in Webdesk EWP

The reports available in HR-Expert can also be used as Webdesk menu items for a manager self-service and can thus be made available to a broader group of users.

Joint Administration of Persons and Groups

Every person created in HR-Expert is automatically also visible in the Webdesk EWP Administrator. Conversely, with every person created via the Webdesk EWP Administrator, an employee is also automatically created in HR-Expert.

In principle, the core information of a person can be administered via both access points, but important HR-relevant, administrative properties such as employment contract, job assignment, private addresses, etc. can only be administered via HR-Expert.
