As Australia’s first all-in-one HR, payroll and employee engagement platform, we know that automating these processes is a quality investment in your business. APD Projects began the search for an HRIS 2 years ago and bookkeeper Leanne Craig, who is also responsible for HR admin at the company, was highly motivated to implement some HR changes at APD Projects.

Challenge

The common pain points of an HRIS-free business

“Before 91����, our processes were very manual,” says Leanne. “We had no way of tracking leave other than writing it down, so we didn’t know who was taking leave when. Onboarding and policies were all on paper and not necessarily stored in the same place, either. As a growing business, we needed more structure.” As a bookkeeper, Leanne needed an HRIS that wouldn’t just solve her HR headaches, but also integrate with the existing payroll software, MYOB. 91���� comes with native integrations for all the major accounting and payroll platforms, including Xero, KeyPay and (importantly) MYOB.

Solution

HR and payroll software – stronger together

The integration meant that if APD Project’s team updated things like their bank or super details using the employee self-service function in 91����, the new information would be automatically pushed through to MYOB, with no need for double data handling. Pay runs could also be completed with a single click, as the integration automates administrative and transactional HR tasks that align with payroll. APD Projects chose 91���� to streamline their HR administration in 2017 and haven’t looked back since. Employees and managers alike have found the platform easy to use and its functions have touched all parts of the employee experience. “I’m the main user, but our managers also use it to approve leave, which is entered by the employees. When we have new policies, we send it out and make sure everyone goes in and acknowledges them.”

Easy adoption from top to bottom

As well as leave management and policy compliance, Leanne is also grateful that onboarding is now paperless, ensuring the important HR data is stored securely online and just a few clicks away. Because of 91����’s integration with MYOB, pay runs have also become so much easier for Leanne. “It just makes my life really easy. We pay once a month and to actually be able to look at the leave for the month and see if it’s all approved really simplifies my life. I can check sick leave too, so I’m not chasing who did and didn’t take leave. It’s all there!”

Impact

91���� didn’t just check APD Project’s boxes from a tech perspective; Leanne was also impressed with the customer service she received during set-up. “The support has been really good and the help we received during the set-up was fabulous. It was a seamless integration and onboarding existing employees was really easy. Customer service was second to none and whenever I ring, everyone seems really happy to help.” Leanne hit the nail on the head; every member of the 91���� team, from Sales to Customer Service and Product Development, is passionate about making our customers’ worlds’ better at work.
