In recent years, streamlining operations and ensuring data accuracy have become critical challenges for companies.
Particularly in the HR department, managing employee information is essential in daily operations.
This time, we will introduce a method to achieve automatic data registration by integrating kintone with freee HR.
This integration is expected to reduce manual tasks and improve data accuracy, creating an environment where you can focus on other tasks.
This blog will explain in detail how to improve operational efficiency through automatic data registration.
Please use it as a reference.

Benefits of Integrating kintone with freee HR

1. Improved Operational Efficiency

By automating this flow, manual data entry becomes unnecessary.
As a result, employees are freed from input tasks, allowing them to secure time for more strategic work.
Consequently, overall operational efficiency is improved, and productivity is expected to increase.
For example, in the HR department, the situation where each employee's information was manually entered into freee HR will no longer require registration tasks due to automation.
As a result, HR personnel can focus on other tasks such as recruitment activities, leading to improved overall operational efficiency.

2. Enhanced Data Accuracy

Automation ensures consistent data transfer from kintone to freee HR, reducing human errors during manual input.
Accurate data management helps prevent troubles caused by errors.
For instance, in the general affairs department, when new employee information is entered into kintone, it will automatically be registered in freee HR, reducing manual input tasks.
Additionally, input errors and duplication of personal information are less likely to occur, enabling accurate labor management and leading to smooth payroll calculations and social insurance procedures.

I came across Yoom when I was searching for ways to improve work efficiency on a daily basis at a small and medium-sized enterprise in a region where human resources are limited. I was casually thinking that it would be nice if this were the case, and by introducing Yoom, we can make it so much more efficient! I'm moved. Even though I have no knowledge or experience with systems or programming, my work has changed drastically, so I'm writing that I hope I can share it with many people who feel the same way.
