A Report On The Castle Family Restaurant

Now that we have taken a look at the minimum required hardware and software of the ADP system, let’s examine ADP as a Human Resource Information System, or HRIS for short. A great HRIS system provides critical data about the human resource function of the business as well as helping to create a follow through on the business’s mission and goals. HRIS systems help to reduce organizational costs by contributing to the efficiency of the human resource management function. HRIS systems help to automate critical human resource management functions (Chauhan, Sharma, & Tyagi, 2011, p. 58). HRIS systems contain information on employees, job and work conditions, positions, payroll and benefits, and HR events such as recruitment, training, development, performance appraisals, and terminations (Chauhan, Sharma, & Tyagi, 2011, p. 59). Although ADP offers all of these features, Federal-Mogul utilizes ADP specifically for the payroll and benefits function.

Human Resource managers, and other key personnel, now have full access to the HRIS system. They will spend a quick week in their own training, acclimating themselves with the quirks of the system and becoming comfortable with common tasks. After this week has passed then a full, company wide training will take place, with the goal of accomplishing two tasks. First, to inform employees of the new HRIS system and some of it’s key features. Second, to set expectations among employees of what their responsibility and interaction with the new system will consist of. A brief mention of some of the high level

Challenges: Although it has highly integrated payroll partnerships, it is the only vendor in this evaluation to not offer payroll administration as a native part of its application. SuccessFactors a high energy offering; though it may be intimidating to more traditional HRIS users. Corporate wide training and cultural adjustments will be required to get employees, managers, and HR professionals collaborating through the

The first step in setting up the new Human Resource Application, (HRA), is to gather information about the system requirements and user needs from everyone that will be involved in the startup and rollout of the new system. The process of gathering information from involved stakeholders can be a tedious process if the wrong techniques are used. So, to expedite this in an orderly and timely manner we will be passing out questioners to all members of the Human Resource Department and to all Department heads. Using Questioners will help the IT department get an idea of what requirements are expected from the new system. It is not cost efficient to talk to each employee so, it would be very beneficial for all that every questioner is filled out in a timely manner. We will be emailed to each employee on Monday September 9th, 2013 and would like a response no later than Thursday September 12th, 2013, (for processing purposes). Questioners will also be available on the Employee Web Site under HR applications.

The Castle’s Family Organization could greatly benefit from implementing a Human Resources Information System for their payroll process. This would give Morgan the capability of managing some of his HR duties from his office, which would reduce travel time and costs. This would also reduce the chance of human error when calculating employee’s work hours and distributing payroll checks.

The two basic records produced in a payroll accounting system are the payroll register and the employee's earnings record.

Kudler Fine Foods is a specialty food store consisting of a workforce of approximately 17 employees at their administration office, 31 employees at their La Jolla store, 38 employees at their Del Mar store and 38 employees at their Encinitas store, totaling 124 employees (Kudler Fine Foods Intranet). Each location manages their own employees’ information on their own database. This proves to be a problem since all Human Resources and employee information should be managed at the administrative office on one central Human Resources Information System (HRIS). Another drawback to the current Kudler Fine Foods system is that the timekeeper and attendance records are done manually which is not only time consuming, but causes errors

The new Human Resources Information System (HRIS) architecture will be congruent with the existing Information Technology (IT) infrastructure. Technical support will be directed and implemented from the San Jose office. Our proposal recommends a three phase approach to implementation. In the First Phase (1P), HRIS baseline requirements and increased Human Resource utility will be launched at the Riordan Corporate office in singular virtual network. Phase Two (P2) implements the HRIS baseline requirements throughout the United States. Phase Three (P3) implements the HRIS throughout the enterprise worldwide.

Riordan manufacturing has requested an upgrade to their current human resources system. They currently have several disparate tools that are patched together in order to complete HR functions. Many Excel spreadsheets are used by different parts of HR, and combining all resources into one system can provide many time saving advantages and a more reliable system over all. By reviewing who the stakeholders are and what the best information-gathering techniques are we can ensure that we collect the information for the requirements and stay within the scope of the project.

Giving the situation, Castle’s Family Restaurant will benefit best from a payroll HRIS. Most of the payroll HRIS software on the market organizes and simplifies some form of payroll processing. Payroll is initiated by the employee who begins to keep track of time spend on certain activities. A report is generated through some sort of software or web application that reflect these activities, although some activities are being recorded on hand written forms that then have to be transcribed into a computer. One of the benefits of a payroll system is that it will also conduct necessary accounting and may even print out checks.

The Human Resource Department of the Chocolate Confections Corporation has enlisted the services of the Forrester Consulting Group in selecting a new software package that will place them at the forefront of the human-resources/payroll computing community. With the implementation and integration of a new software system, the HR Department hopes to gain a more user-friendly system that will streamline HR and payroll business processes. The vice president of the Human Resources Department, Monica A. Bentz, appointed a “working committee” to

* HRIS TYPE: Now that you’ve conducted some research in the previous assignment, you should have a good foundation to take the next step in your business plan. You should have a good review of the scenario, have conducted some research on HRIS systems, and now your next step is to choose a type of HRIS. Share the type of system you plan to implement to help your customer. This must be substantiated in this paper to your customer from a theoretical perspective.

After reviewing the O*NET website I came up with the below information about my interests, skills, and information on the jobs that matched these specific items.

Dramatically reduce cost, effort and accuracy associated with entering, gathering and disseminating information by storing everything electronically in a central database.

This will enable accurate pay checks for our employees and accurate and timely deductions which are to be reported back federally and provincially. By automatically linking the payroll module to accounting module, there will be better synergies in reporting requirements and provide error checking procedures on two systems to better handle any mistakes. As with the current standards of privacy, the new system will be better equipped to handle the requirements under the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA) by ensuring data security of employee private information. This will be enabled by allowing certain individuals access and also by having password and encryption built into HR modules.
