Configuring your HRIS Integration
After you have connected your HRIS (Human Resources Information System) to AccessOwl, you can adjust several settings to optimize the integration for your team. For an up-to-date integration list, please visit our Integrations page.HRIS Settings
Update Manager Information
Update Manager Information
AccessOwl imports each employee’s manager information for these key reasons:
- It streamlines access requests and approval workflows.
- It is essential for Access Reviews.
If an employee doesn’t have a manager listed, AccessOwl will treat them as an executive, meaning they won’t need approval for their requests.
You can manually update manager information in AccessOwl at any time.
