GetBizApps

HR & People

One employee record, from the advert to the exit.

A hiring pipeline that ends in an employee record rather than a form to re-key, attendance read from the device on the wall, training and reviews that leave an evidence trail, and the hours payroll and client billing are both built on.

GetBizApps runs the HR record and produces the payroll sheet; it is not a payroll bureau. Statutory filing sits outside the platform, as it does in Finance. There is no benefits or insurance administration. Job openings publish to your own branded career portal rather than being syndicated to external job boards, and Training schedules, costs and records learning — it does not deliver it, so there is no course content and no LMS.

The cycle you already run

Hire, onboard, attend, develop, pay.

Every HR function runs the same loop. What differs between organisations is how many separate places a single person's details are typed into along the way.

  1. 1

    Hire

    Openings published to a career portal, applications with documents and role-specific questions, and interview rounds with structured feedback.

  2. 2

    Onboard

    A template-based offer that runs through approval, an onboarding checklist for the first days, and an accepted offer that becomes the employee record.

  3. 3

    Attend

    Attendance, leave and shifts against the employee record — with clock-ins read from a fingerprint or face reader rather than a register typed up afterwards.

  4. 4

    Develop

    Training scheduled with its cost and its outcome, goals and review cycles on your own schedule, and recognition that is visible rather than implied.

  5. 5

    Pay

    Hours logged once — from attendance, from tasks or by hand — and read into the payroll sheet and the client bill from the same entries.

Coverage

The HR checklist, and what answers each line.

The list an HR lead runs through when they evaluate anything. Each row names the add-on that does it, so the gaps are as readable as the fit.

  • Employee records and their documents
    HRMS

    One record per person with contracts and identification held against it, read by every other HR add-on rather than copied into them.

  • Departments, designations and structure
    HRMS

    The shape of the organisation, used for grouping, filtering and reporting across HR and by add-ons such as Training.

  • Attendance, leave and shifts
    HRMS

    Daily attendance, leave requests and approvals, and the shift definitions attendance is measured against.

  • Clock-ins from a device
    Biometric Attendance

    ZKTeco fingerprint and face readers synced into the same attendance records, with late arrivals, early leaves and overtime carried across.

  • Job openings and a career portal
    Recruitment

    Openings with title, location, salary range and required skills, published or unpublished on a portal branded as yours.

  • Interviews and structured feedback
    Recruitment

    Multiple rounds in sequence, physical or virtual, several interviewers each, scored against standardised competencies.

  • Offers, approvals and onboarding
    Recruitment

    Template offers with dynamic placeholders, an approval step, and checklists that start the moment one is accepted.

  • Training, trainers and refreshers
    Training

    Sessions with dates, cost and a completion review, an internal and external trainer database, and identification of who is due again.

  • Goals, review cycles and appraisals
    Performance

    Indicators with measurement units and targets, goals with dates and progress, and reviews recording strengths and areas to improve.

  • Recognition and team scoring
    Performance Indicator

    Challenges with defined rewards, milestone achievements, team XP pools and leaderboards that update as work completes.

  • Daily hours for payroll and billing
    Timesheet

    An hour and minute split with a time type and a note per line, logged from attendance, from tasks, or by hand.

  • Time against a specific task
    Time Tracker

    A timer started and stopped on a task, with exact times recorded and the duration calculated rather than estimated.

  • Announcements people actually read
    Notice Board

    Targeted by user, role or department, with priority levels, acknowledgement clicks and read counts per notice.

  • Leave, equipment and access requests
    Requests

    Your own forms with conditional fields and categories, so an internal ask arrives as a record rather than a message.

In your industry

The same employee record, a different week.

An HR module list looks much the same everywhere. What the team spends the week on does not — and that is usually what decides whether a system fits.

Manufacturing

Shifts, and proving who was on them

A factory HR week is shift coverage and attendance accuracy. Shifts are defined and people assigned to them, and clock-ins come from a ZKTeco fingerprint or face reader on the floor — which removes both the register somebody types up on Monday and the buddy punching it invited. Late arrivals, early leaves and overtime arrive with the record, so the exceptions are visible without a separate calculation. Alongside that: compliance training with an expiry, and the refresher list that finds a lapsed certification before an audit does.

Healthcare

Credentials that expire, and cover that cannot lapse

Clinical administration runs on documents and rosters. Contracts, registrations and identification sit against the employee record rather than in a shared drive, and Training identifies who is due for a mandatory refresher before the date passes rather than after. Attendance and leave in one view is what makes cover a decision instead of a scramble, and announcements reach a specific department with a read count attached.

Retail

High turnover, and the paperwork it generates

Retail HR is hiring, constantly. A branded career portal collects applications against openings with their own custom questions, offers go out from templates through approval, and an accepted offer converts straight into an employee record — which is the step that usually means re-keying a form. Onboarding checklists carry a new starter through their first days, and attendance runs against the shifts each store actually works.

See how retail runs it
Consulting & Agencies

Hours, because hours are the product

In a practice the HR record and the billing record are the same data read twice. Timesheets carry an hour and minute split with a time type and a note per entry, logged against the projects and tasks a person is actually assigned to, and Time Tracker times the work as it happens rather than reconstructing it on Friday. Utilisation and what a project cost to deliver come out of the same entries the payroll sheet does.

See how consulting & agencies runs it
Health & Fitness

Part-time staff, and who is qualified for what

A studio or gym runs on a roster of instructors and desk staff, most of them part-time. Employee records hold the certifications, Training records what was completed and flags who is due to renew, and attendance covers a workforce whose hours vary week to week. Announcements go to one site rather than the whole group, and internal requests — a shift swap, equipment, access — arrive as a form instead of a message thread.

The record

Set someone up once, and be done.

Everything else on this page reads from here. The value is not that an employee list exists — it is that there is only one of them, and that attendance against it did not have to be typed in.

One record per person

Details, department and designation held once and recognised everywhere, so a change of role is made in one place rather than five.

Documents where the person is

Contracts and identification stored against the employee record instead of a shared drive, under the same role-based permissions.

Attendance and leave together

Who was in, who was off and what is still awaiting approval is one question with one answer, rather than a spreadsheet next to an inbox.

Shifts to measure against

Define the shifts the organisation actually runs and assign people to them, which is what gives attendance a standard rather than a guess.

Clock-ins from the reader

ZKTeco fingerprint and face devices sync into the same attendance records, matched to the right person by employee code.

Exceptions, already calculated

Late arrivals, early leaves and overtime arrive alongside the raw times, so they are read rather than worked out.

Hiring

An offer that becomes an employee, not a form.

Most hiring tools stop at the offer and hand you a PDF. The step that costs an HR team its afternoon is the one after that — and it is the one this covers.

Openings with the detail on them

Title, location, salary range and required skills, published or unpublished on the portal as the need changes.

A career portal that is yours

Branded with your logo and messaging, collecting applications against published openings automatically rather than into an inbox.

Questions per position

Structured forms extended with custom questions and your own terms, so responses arrive comparable instead of in five formats.

Rounds, in sequence

Several interview rounds configured in order, scheduled physically or virtually, with multiple interviewers on each.

Feedback against competencies

Structured scoring on standardised competencies, which is what makes two interviewers' views comparable rather than two opinions.

Accepted, then employed

Template offers with placeholders run through approval, and an accepted one converts to an employee record with onboarding tasks attached.

Growing and rewarding

Evidence, rather than an impression.

Promotion and salary conversations go badly when the only record is memory. These three build the trail: what someone was trained on, what they were measured against, and what the team saw them do.

Training with a cost and an outcome

Sessions carry their dates and what they cost, linked to Accounting so the expense is deducted, and close with a review rather than just a date.

Who is due again

The staff due for mandatory refresher courses are identified, so a lapsed certification is found before somebody needs it.

Trainers in one database

Internal and external trainers with their contact details and expertise, organised by branch and department for allocation.

Goals with dates and progress

Goal types assigned from the employee record, each with a start and end date and a visual progress indicator, in list or grid view.

Review cycles on your schedule

Cycles with their own frequency and description, with an assigned reviewer recording strengths, areas to improve and detailed ratings.

Recognition people can see

Challenges with defined rewards and difficulty, milestone achievements, shared team XP pools and leaderboards that update as work completes.

What I appreciate most is having employee records and training information in one system. GetBizApps helps us keep staff administration organised and see who is due for refresher training.

The month end

Hours in once, read three ways.

The same entry has to serve payroll, the client bill and the utilisation question. It only can if it was made in one place, which is what makes the reports at the end of the month a filter rather than a rebuild.

Ready to run

  • Attendance summary
  • Leave report
  • Payroll sheet
  • Recruitment dashboard

Illustrative view — figures are examples, not customer data.

One entry, three uses

An hour and minute split with a time type and a note, logged from attendance, from an assigned task, or by hand when neither applies.

Timed, not remembered

A timer started and stopped on a task records exact start and end times and calculates the duration, with optional screenshot capture.

Attendance summary

Presence, absence, leave status, working hours and overtime in one report, filterable by branch and department.

Leave report

Approved, pending and rejected requests together, so outstanding decisions and agreed absences read from the same place.

Payroll sheet

Salary, deductions and net pay per employee with branch and department filters, for checking a run before it goes out.

Announcements with read counts

Notices targeted at a role or department, acknowledged with one click, so whether the message landed is a number rather than a hope.

What changes

The same jobs, done a different way.

Not a list of things we have — a comparison of how each job goes today against how it goes once HR runs on one record. The middle column names no vendor: it describes the shape of the work, which is the part a reader recognises anyway.

  • Setting up a new starter
    By hand, or across separate software

    The same details typed into a personnel file, a payroll sheet, the attendance register and whatever the department keeps, each drifting from the others.

    With GetBizApps Suite

    An accepted offer converts to an employee record, and attendance, training, reviews and payroll all read that one record rather than a copy of it.

  • Knowing who was actually in
    By hand, or across separate software

    A paper register or a sign-in sheet typed up afterwards, which nobody can reconcile once a month has passed and somebody disputes a day.

    With GetBizApps Suite

    Punches synced from a fingerprint or face reader into the attendance records, with late arrivals, early leaves and overtime carried with them.

  • Running a hiring round
    By hand, or across separate software

    A job posted in a few places, applications in an inbox, interview notes in people's own files, and an offer letter rebuilt from the last one.

    With GetBizApps Suite

    Openings on your own career portal, applications with custom questions and documents, rounds with scored feedback, and template offers through approval.

  • Tracking mandatory training
    By hand, or across separate software

    A spreadsheet of certificates that is accurate on the day it is made, and a renewal that is noticed when somebody goes looking for the certificate.

    With GetBizApps Suite

    Training sessions with dates, costs and completion reviews, and automatic identification of the staff due for a refresher course.

  • Holding an appraisal
    By hand, or across separate software

    A conversation reconstructed from memory and recent events, with nothing written down that a promotion decision could later rest on.

    With GetBizApps Suite

    Indicators with targets, dated goals with progress, review cycles on your own schedule, and recorded strengths, ratings and areas to improve.

  • Getting hours to payroll
    By hand, or across separate software

    Timesheets collected by email, chased for a week, re-keyed into a payroll sheet, and reconciled against attendance by hand.

    With GetBizApps Suite

    Hours logged once from attendance or from assigned tasks, read into the payroll sheet and the client bill from the same entries.

  • Getting an announcement read
    By hand, or across separate software

    An all-staff email, a chat message, and no way to tell the difference between a message delivered and a message read.

    With GetBizApps Suite

    Notices targeted by user, role or department with priority levels, one-click acknowledgement, and read and acknowledgement counts per notice.

  • Handling an internal request
    By hand, or across separate software

    Leave asked for in a message, equipment asked for in another, and an approval that exists only as a reply somebody has to find again.

    With GetBizApps Suite

    Your own request forms with conditional fields and categories, arriving as records in one place with search, filtering and role-based access.

FAQ

HR & People questions, answered.

It runs the setup payroll depends on and produces the payroll sheet — salary, deductions and net pay per employee, filterable by branch and department — from the employee records and hours already in the system. Statutory filing sits outside the platform, the same line the Finance module draws: you are given a position to file rather than a shoebox to sort.

No. Attendance and leave are part of the core HRMS module and can be maintained directly. Biometric Attendance is a separate add-on for organisations that want punches read from a ZKTeco fingerprint or face device instead of entered, and it writes into the same attendance records rather than keeping its own.

Training and Performance both require the HR module before their features are available, and Biometric Attendance writes into the HRM attendance records. Enabling HRMS first means those add-ons are working against an employee list that already exists rather than each building their own.

Yes, in three ways. With HRMS enabled, hours can be logged automatically from attendance. With project tasks available, time is tracked against the tasks a person is assigned to. When neither applies, entries are made manually — so Timesheet is usable on its own.

Pricing is per add-on, per user and per term. A team running HRMS and Timesheet pays for those two; Recruitment, Training, Performance, Performance Indicator and Biometric Attendance are each separate and switched on only if you need them.

One platform, only the parts you run.

Start with this department and add the rest when the handover between two of them stops being an export. We will walk you through it on your own numbers.
