Features of HR Accelerator
Critical River’s HR Accelerator has specific modules for:
Recruitment
It leverages BambooHR to review a candidate’s CV, cover letters, and answers to application questions to check their credentials and experience for a profile. It also enables timely and consistent communication, including auto-populating email templates to keep candidates informed if they have been shortlisted for interviews.
Onboarding
The process begins when HR has confirmed a candidate as an employee. It involves automated provisioning of the new employee’s details in access systems such as Azure and AD/Okta. A user account is automatically created in HRMS, ERP, payroll, and the timesheet system.
Data Synchronization
Whenever there is an update in an employee’s profile on the HRM system, such as appraised salary or a vertical or horizontal movement, the HR Accelerator helps synchronize data across all connected systems. It can identify which record needs to be updated and automatically sends the change in profile to other databases maintained for the employee. The idea is to keep a single, centralized source of employee truth for the organization.
Notifications
Because it handles multiple data sets for the workforce across departments, HR Accelerator comes with a real-time notification feature so that concerned personnel, such as the compensation and employee benefits team, training and development team, and compliance managers, are instantly informed about changes in the profile of an employee.
Offboarding
When an employee has resigned, retired, or is terminated, HR simply needs to update their last working day and status in the HRM system, and that automatically triggers other processes controlled by HR Accelerator. It keeps the concerned employee’s manager and other teams involved in the offboarding process informed with real-time individual application status notifications.
On the employee’s last working day, all the synced accounts containing details on payroll and HR ERP in Active Directory/Okta and Timesheets are automatically deactivated. The action ensures the stoppage of monthly salary payments. It also helps to calculate the full and final amount to be paid to the candidate on a specific day after the exit interview.
HR Accelerator: How it can Revamp Your HR Operations
Automating workflows with HR Accelerator helps prevent manual errors and reduces the turnaround time that goes into complex HRM processes. For companies that employ full-time, part-time, work-from-home/office, consultant, and freelance workers, it improves transparency and consistency in people management.
By automating HR tasks from recruitment and onboarding to data synchronization and offboarding, HR leaders also track data generated by HR functions more effectively. They can use such information to evaluate employee experience and build a more productive work culture.
