Kintone is an excellent tool that can be used as an employee directory, allowing you to manage employee information collectively.
However, manually entering information from Kintone into SmartHR can be a significant workload.
By integrating Kintone with SmartHR, you can maintain the accuracy of employee information and reduce the risk of errors in payroll calculations and social insurance procedures.

Benefits of Integrating Kintone with SmartHR

Benefit 1: Improved Data Consistency

Automatic data integration from Kintone to SmartHR reduces manual data entry errors.
For example, if there are mistakes in basic employee information or salary-related data, it can lead to payroll errors or require corrections later, resulting in a significant burden.
However, by implementing automation, such human errors can be prevented.
As a result, the company's compliance system is strengthened, and highly reliable personnel management can be expected.

Benefit 2: Reduced Management Costs

The integration of apps reduces the workload of the HR department.
It reduces the manual registration of employee information, allowing focus on more valuable tasks such as managing working hours and employee career planning.
Additionally, in small and medium-sized enterprises operating with limited human resources, the scope of work each employee handles tends to broaden, increasing the burden per person.
However, by utilizing automation, the cost of managing employee data can be reduced, making management easier.
