Platform

Reporting, permissions and the audit record

The parts that are not a module: the reports every module contributes to, the roles that decide who sees a salary, and the record of who changed what — plus the Enterprise line items that are delivered by an agreement rather than by a screen, said plainly.

Answers you can exportEvery report runs to CSV, Excel and PDF through the same exporter, so a question asked in a board meeting leaves as a file.
Access that matches the org chartWhat somebody can see follows their role, their legal entity and their reporting line — three separate limits rather than one blunt one.
A history nobody has to be trusted aboutApprovals, salary revisions, payroll runs and settlements are recorded as they happen, in the same transaction as the change.
In detail

What platform actually does.

Reporting across every module

Professional and up

Reports are grouped by subject — People, Payroll, Leave, Compliance and Performance — and every one of them runs against your own scope. A user scoped to one entity gets that entity's figures, from the same report a group HR manager runs across all of them.

  • Headcount, joiners, leavers, salary and structure across the people you can see
  • Payroll cost by period, by department, and month on month
  • Leave entitlement, absence and the leave register
  • Compliance dates that need acting on before they pass
  • Performance completion, overdue reviews, score distribution and history
  • CSV, Excel and PDF from the same export, authenticated and permission-checked

Roles, permissions and entity scope

Enterprise and up

Permissions are per action rather than per screen, roles collect them, and a user's reach is further limited by the legal entities they are given and the team that reports to them. The interface is never the check — every route asks again.

  • Roles built from individual permissions, not fixed job titles
  • Entity access per user, so a subsidiary's HR sees a subsidiary
  • Manager reach that follows the reporting line
  • Compensation kept as its own permission, separate from everything else

The audit record

Premium and up

Business-significant changes are written to an append-only record in the same transaction as the change itself — so a change that was made was recorded, and a recording that exists describes something that happened. The application can add to it and cannot alter it.

  • Who, what, when and the before-and-after values
  • Written in the same transaction as the change, so the two cannot come apart
  • Append-only to the application; a row cannot be edited or deleted through the product
  • Sign-in history and session records alongside the business changes

Custom approval workflows

By agreementPremium and up

Approval chains defined to your structure rather than to the product's defaults. Sold with an Enterprise agreement and scoped in that conversation — today the product's approval routes follow the reporting line and the permission set, and anything beyond that is work we agree before you sign, not a switch waiting to be turned on.

  • Scoped and priced as part of the Enterprise agreement
  • Today's behaviour: approvals follow the reporting line and role permissions

Consolidated group reporting

By agreementEnterprise and up

One figure across every legal entity in a group. An Enterprise line item: the reports today run across the entities a user is scoped to, which covers most of what is meant by this, and anything further is agreed in the contract rather than assumed from this page.

  • Sold as part of the Enterprise agreement
  • Today's behaviour: every report runs across all entities a user is scoped to

API and integrations

By agreementEnterprise and up

Programmatic access and integration with the systems you already run. There is no published public API today. What this buys is an integration agreed and built as part of an Enterprise engagement — which is a real thing we sell, and not the same thing as a documented endpoint you can call this afternoon.

  • Scoped and delivered as part of the Enterprise agreement
  • No public API documentation today; do not plan an integration on the assumption of one

Single sign-on

By agreementEnterprise and up

Sign-in through your own identity provider. Sold with Enterprise and delivered as part of that engagement. Sign-in today is a password with multi-factor authentication available; if SSO is a requirement rather than a preference, raise it before signing.

  • Scoped and delivered as part of the Enterprise agreement
  • Today's behaviour: password sign-in, with multi-factor authentication

Priority support

By agreementPremium and up

A named contact and a response time written into the contract, rather than a queue. This one is delivered by people and paper by definition — there is no feature behind it and we are not going to pretend otherwise.

  • A named contact rather than a ticket queue
  • Response times in the contract on Enterprise; priority handling on Premium
Which plan

What each tier includes, from the live price list.

This table is read from the same plan catalogue the billing system enforces, so it cannot disagree with what your subscription actually allows. Ceilings and prices are on the pricing table.

Prices, employee ceilings and monthly allowances are on the pricing table. Enterprise is quoted against your group rather than published.

Before you buy

What this does not do.

Worth an awkward paragraph here rather than an awkward call in month two.

  • There is no public API and no published integration documentation. API access is an Enterprise engagement, not an endpoint.
  • Single sign-on is not available as a self-service setting on any plan.
  • There is no report builder. Reports are a maintained set that grows with the product; a new one is a release, not a screen you configure.
Questions

Straight answers.

Can another customer's data ever reach ours?+

No. Every company using the product is separated at the database itself — the isolation is a property of how the data is stored rather than a filter a query has to remember, and it is tested on every table on every build.

If we stop paying, do we lose our records?+

No. A workspace with an overdue payment becomes read-only. Everything stays visible and every report still exports. Nothing is hidden to make a point.
