Understand each change

Review employee audit entries and their detail to understand the recorded activity behind an employee’s HR information.

An employee record shows the information you work with today; change history helps provide context about recorded activity behind it. HR Planner offers employee audit lists and detailed entries, giving authorised users a route from an overview of activity to the information available for a particular event.

For example, when a colleague asks about an employee-detail update, open the relevant history and inspect the corresponding entry. The available detail can help the team understand the change in its recorded context. This is more useful than relying only on recollection or searching separate messages for an explanation.

Employee-specific audit trail with actions and timestamps

Employee administration takes place in several connected parts of the application. Change-history views cover multiple employee business objects rather than only the personal-details screen. This gives HR a place to inspect relevant recorded events when a question involves more than one part of the employee workspace.

For example, a review might involve a profile update followed by a leave change or a new certificate record. The history helps locate the relevant activity in the supported areas, then the underlying record provides further context. Access to each area should reflect the reviewer’s configured responsibilities.

Support careful review

Use history as context for an HR question, then refer to the relevant record or request when deciding what action is needed.

A recorded event is a useful starting point for investigation, but the surrounding employee record and request still matter. Reviewing the detailed entry alongside the current information helps an authorised user decide whether a question has been answered or a further correction should be proposed through the appropriate process.

For example, if an employee questions a change to their recorded information, inspect the relevant entry and compare it with the current record. Where further action is needed, use the normal update or review route. This keeps the history useful for understanding activity without treating it as a substitute for HR judgement.
