FAQs about digital personnel files

What is a digital personnel file?

A digital personnel file is the electronic version of an employee's HR file. It holds contracts, certificates, reviews, and other employee documents in one place. In Doxis, a cover sheet shows key HR data at a glance, and a preconfigured folder structure keeps every file consistent.

Is an HR file the same as a personnel file?

Yes, the two terms usually mean the same thing: the complete record of documents about one employee. Doxis calls it the HR eFile, and it covers the whole employee lifecycle from application to exit.

What documents belong in a personnel file?

A personnel file typically holds application documents, employment contracts, payroll-related documents, certificates, training records, and performance reviews. Doxis files each document type in its own folder, so HR staff always know where to look.

Does Doxis integrate with SAP SuccessFactors and Workday?

Yes. Doxis creates a personnel file for each employee in SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central, keeps it in sync, and lets HR staff open it from the SuccessFactors interface. Doxis also connects to SAP HCM and Workday.

How does Doxis handle retention and deletion of personnel files?

Doxis assigns a retention period to each HR document type and applies it automatically. When the period ends, documents are deleted on schedule, and the audit log records every deletion for your auditors.

Can employees access their own personnel file?

Yes. Through Doxis employee self-service, employees can view their own file with time-limited access, request documents, and download automatically generated employment certificates.

How does AI help with HR document management?

Doxis AI reads and classifies each HR document as it arrives and files it in the right personnel file. It extracts dates, certifications, and contract terms and flags files with missing documents.
