Is this right for me?

Sage 50 HR 2009 allows you to store and track all the information you need about your people: their personal details, holiday records, absences, working patterns, skills, performance and training. 

What's new for 2009?

• New screen designer: Record any information that’s relevant to your business e.g. industry specific registrations, training, licences, company assets, clothing sizes etc.
• Improved reports: Record information specific to your business and report on it. For example, add specialist qualification records to your employee details, and then run reports to see who has them.
• New report selection: Save time by combining reports together into your own unique selections and then run them in one go.
• Improved calendar and events management: You can create events with automatic reminders to prompt you when things like permits or specialist qualifications are due for renewal.
• Improved eligibility checks: Record any kind of background check including Independent Safeguarding Authority (ISA) and Criminal Record Bureau (CRB) checks.
• New auto email address: Set up email address templates that you can automatically apply to all your people to communicate quickly and easily.
• Improved absence management: Keep records of cancelled holidays and absence, rather than just deleting them.
