HUMAN RESOURCE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM INTRODUCTION

A Human Resource Management System (HRMS, EHRMS), Human Resource Information System (HRIS), HR Technology or also called HR modules, or simply "Payroll", refers to the systems and processes at the intersection between human resource management (HRM) and information technology. It merges HRM as a discipline and in particular its basic HR activities and processes with the information technology field, whereas the programming of data processing systems evolved into standardized routines and packages of enterprise resource planning (ERP) software. On the whole, these ERP systems have their origin on software that integrates information from different applications into one universal database. The linkage of its financial and human resource modules through one database is the most important distinction to the individually and proprietary developed predecessors, which makes this software application both rigid and flexible.

LITERATURE REVIEW
All in all, the HR function is still to a large degree administrative and common to all Organizations. The HR function consists of tracking innumerable data points on each employee, from personal histories, data, skills, capabilities, experiences to p a y r o l l records. To reduce the manual workload of these administrative activities, organizations began to electronically automate many of these processes by introducing innovative HRMS. Due to complexity in programming, capabilities and limited technical resources, HR executives rely on internal or external IT professionals to develop and maintain

their Human Resource Management Systems (HRMS). Before the "client-server " architecture evolved in the late 1980s, every single HR automation process came largely in form of mainframe computers that could handle large amounts of data transactions. These clientsserver HRMS are characteristically developed around four principal areas o f H R functionalities:
"Payroll",

Time and labour management Benefits administration and HR management.

The Payroll model automates the pay process by gathering data on employee time and attendance, calculating various deductions and taxes, and generating periodic pay cheques and employee tax reports. The time and labour management module applies new technology and methods (time collection devices) to cost effectively gather and evaluate employee time/work information. The benefit administration model permits HR professionals to easily administer and track employee participation in benefits programs ranging from healthcare provider, insurance policy, and pension plan to profit sharing or stock option plans. The HR management module i s a c o m p o n e n t c o v e r i n g a l l o t h e r H R aspects

from application to retirement. The system records basic demographic and a d d r e s s d a t a , selection, training and development, capabilities and skills management, compensation planning records and other related activities While using the internet or corporate intranet as a communication and workflow vehicle, the HRMS/HCM technology can convert these into web-based HRMS components of the ERP system and permit to reduce transaction costs, leading to greater HR and organizational efficiency. Costly and time consuming HR administrative tasks, such as travel reimbursement, personnel data change, benefits enrolment, enrolment in training classes (employee side) and to Instruct a personnel action, authorize access to information for employees (manager's side) are being individually handled and permit to reduce HR transaction time, leading to HR and organizational effectiveness. Consequently HR professionals can spend fewer resources in managing administrative HR activities and can apply freed time and resources to concentration strategic HR issues, which lead to business innovation.
