“Can we open a position, assign someone, and later see who held it before?”

What they get from some enterprise-grade HRMS platforms:

  • First, define a Business Function
  • Then assign it to a Job Family
  • Create a Position under a Job Role
  • Map that Position to an Org Unit
  • Submit a Change Request
  • Wait for Admin to approve it via a 9-step workflow
  • Pray that Integration doesn’t break the Position Code
  • Oh, and don’t forget to buy the add-on if you want audit history 😅

All this, just to say:
👉 “John was the Marketing Manager in 2022.”

Also, monthly pricing? Let’s just say… it rhymes with “mortgage.”

Sometimes it feels like these tools weren’t made for HR — they were made for consultants who sell training on how to use them.
