1.1 hrsettings data.png Data

Data is stored in forms in bxp 038.png If you don't want to give users access to the forms but do want them to be able to see limited amounts of data from the forms this is the approach to use.

These sections link to different forms in bxp which are capable of storing data and documents. Documents attached to these records are accessible / downloadable through the various sections that are configured.


The sections available are :

  • Hire : Recruitment
  • Hire : Vacancy Application
  • Require : Contract
  • Require : Employment Docs
  • Require : Disciplinary Docs
  • Require : Official Communication
  • Require : Assets
  • Inspire : Personal Dev
  • Inspire : HR Docs
  • Inspire : Targets
  • Inspire : Quality
  • Admire : Promotion
  • Admire : Leave Request
  • Admire : Qualifications


All records can be stored in a single form or can have separate dedicated forms. This configuration is completely down to business requirements.


For each type a number of key details are required.
