Effectively Establish Electronic Human Resource Management System

Changes in market environment and customer demands have created opportunities for the rise of electronic human resources. The benefits brought by the informatization of human resource management to the enterprise are self-evident: the improvement of organizational efficiency, the saving of expenses, the improvement of employee satisfaction, the improvement of employee ability and the increase of corporate profits... However, there are options available What are the electronic human resource management systems? How to choose a human resource system that is really suitable for the enterprise itself? Is it self-development or external purchase, whether to use foreign products or local brands, is it a one-time implementation or a step-by-step implementation...?

Looking at the market, the human resource system is setting off a new wave of competition. The more well-known manufacturers include foreign SAP and Peoplesoft, and domestic enterprise resource planning manufacturers represented by Kingdee, which focus on the development of human resource systems as part of the overall informatization of the enterprise; and Beijing Jinyikang, which specializes in human resource management. , Longxin Software and Shenzhen Shuowang, etc.

It can be said that each manufacturer has its own emphasis on product strategy and market positioning. How to choose an effective electronic human resources system must follow the different needs and plans of enterprises.

In general, foreign manufacturers SAP and Peoplesoft are more suitable for human resource management of multinational companies; domestic manufacturers such as Jinyikang have a higher degree of standardization in China's personnel information management; and Kingdee's K/3 human resources system It has advantages in overall planning, integration with other application systems, humanized design, and .net-based development. There are many differences between software vendors.

A major trend: matching with overall solutions

Now there are suppliers specializing in the development of human resource systems in the domestic market, and there are also professional management software manufacturers that provide overall solutions. The HR system is only one part of its overall solution.

Industry analysts believe that suppliers of overall solutions will gain greater development. This is because it already has a vast clientele resource, and by continuously enriching its product line, it provides clients with continuous services and integrated consulting.

The overall solution provider can combine the financial, logistics, and manufacturing systems that have been successfully implemented as much as possible, and build new application subsystems on the original technical architecture, so as to eliminate information islands and avoid headaches. Problems such as management internal friction and repeated investment caused by foot pain.

For example, Tide Fuyuan Technology, a well-known domestic manufacturer of computer floppy disks, has fully implemented the K/3 human resources system on the basis of its successful application of K/3ERP last year, realizing "human, financial and material" "The three-dimensional information management platform is smooth and efficient, which not only protects the existing investment of enterprises but also enriches and develops the connotation of enterprise resource planning. Some professional human resources software will also have data interfaces, but after all, they are not the same product series. If other systems are used in the future, they will inevitably be in a dilemma in terms of integration. Professional enterprise software manufacturers that provide comprehensive solutions have consistent development standards among their software systems, and system expansion is an easy task.

Two misunderstandings: blind pursuit of advancement; limited to the old concept of personnel management

As for whether it is a domestic manufacturer or a foreign manufacturer, objectively speaking, products like SAP and Peoplesoft are in The advanced nature is self-evident, but if our own human resource management level cannot reach a higher level, just blindly pursuing the advanced nature of the system will make the mistake of abandoning the fundamentals.

Although some products have a high degree of standardization in China's personnel information management, their products are centered on traditional "personnel management" and cannot meet the needs of systematic "human resource management", nor do they consider The role of the human resource management department in the organization has been elevated from the original transactional department to the status of an important management partner. Obviously, such a product is difficult to adapt to today's business environment.

Three foundations: attention by decision makers; basic management of human resources; determination of digital objects

To establish an effective electronic human resources system, the enterprise must have the System foundations and conditions. First of all, enterprise decision-makers should attach great importance to human resource management. Taking Kingdee as an example, President Xu Shaochun himself is the biggest promoter of human resources work. He proposed a management model that combines passion management and digitalization, and has successively cooperated with internationally renowned management consulting companies such as Hay and Hewitt, and is committed to improving the competitiveness of enterprise management. This largely ensures the successful realization of electronic human resources in Kingdee.

Second, with the support of decision makers, what enterprises need is to do some basic management work in a solid manner. At present, China's human resource management has not yet formed a theoretical system that is truly combined with the current situation of domestic enterprise management. In today's labor market is not mature and orderly, it is quite necessary for enterprises to do some scientific basic management work. At Kingdee, it starts with working with consulting firms to formulate human resource strategies. The first step is to straighten out the thinking of the senior management, and then realize the organizational management structure layer by layer. Every employee in the Kingdee human resources system can automatically determine the authority and scope he has in the system through his position, and can obtain related resources, as well as the human resources affairs and training system in the system. Nice solution and build. It can be seen that the basic work of human resources is a foundation for realizing electronic human resources, and whether the foundation is solid or not is related to whether the entire electronic building can be built.

Third, enterprises need to explore their own problems according to their actual situation, and clarify which problems can be solved through digital solutions and which problems need to be solved through management methods. The realization of electronic human resources requires two conditions: one is the height of the enterprise's own human resources management level, and the other is the realization degree of the enterprise's informatization means. Among the two, the level of human resource management is more important for most enterprises in China today. Only when the management level has a certain degree of post-informatization can it be truly combined with it, so as to enter the process of improving enterprise performance through informatization. stage. Enterprise management informatization is not a panacea. Zero lag in management has always been an ideal state for managers to strive for. Digital means are the most effective auxiliary means to reduce management lag.

With the development of management informatization level, the role of information system in enterprises is also increasing. As a result, some managers have high expectations for enterprise informatization, and will mistakenly think that with an advanced human resource information system, all management problems can be solved.

In fact, the reason why management software is valuable is that it can combine excellent management ideas and methods with the actual situation of the enterprise through the digital information system to improve the management level of the enterprise, but it itself It is just an auxiliary tool for management, and the utility it can reflect is inseparable from the management level of the enterprise.
