Abstract:
In this new era of globalization, technologies are constantly evolving. The constant evolution of
technology necessitates that the organizational leaders are aware of different types of technologies
that enhance the overall quality and efficiency of the organization. Human resource information
systems have evolved continuously since their initial introduction to the point where they are
beyond their original purpose, which is to transform paper records into electronic databases. In
human resource information systems, the introduction of payroll systems is done to manage and
control the HR function and policies. HRIS Software is developed for different organizations with
separate features such as the data storage system. The established HRRI system assists the
organization in organizing the employee information efficiently, accurately and safely. Evolution
of modern HRIS systems is a quality tool that is widely used by HR Professionals regularly for
several purposes. The advantage of HRI system is that it keeps the organization records accurate
and up-to-date that permits them to arrange for future growth of the companies. (Prof. Swati
Bankar, 2017). HRMS (human resource management system) or human resource information
system (human resource information system) refers to systems and processes that sit at the
interface between HRM and information systems. It combines HRM (human resource
management as a discipline, and in particular, its fundamental HR activities and procedures) with
information technology (IT). Whereas the programming of the data processing systems developed into standard routines and ERP software packages. (Arora, 2013) Information needs to be treated
just like any other resource or asset in your organization. It needs to be organized, managed, and
distributed effectively in order to deliver high-quality information. Information flows within your
organization in four fundamental ways: Up, Down, Horizontal, Outward / inward. With so much
information flowing within your organization, it will come as no surprise to you that information
systems play an important role in your organization. The information systems field is one of the
fastest-changing and most dynamic of all business processions, because information technologies
are one of the most critical tools for achieving business firm’s key goals. Until the mid-1950’s,
companies managed all of their information flow through paper records. Over the last 60 years,
the vast majority of business information and information flows between key business actors in an
environment have been computerized. Firms invest in information systems for the business
objectives such as achieving operational excellence (productivity, efficiency, agility), developing
new products and services, attaining customer intimacy and service, improving decision making, achieving competitive advantage and ensuring survival. (Ms. Papia S Nath, 2015) Human resource
departments need a lot of information about the different activities in the organization, such as HR
planning, Recruitment and Selection, Training and Development, Payroll, Employee-Employer
Relationships etc. The contribution of the personnel management department to the functioning of
the organization is largely dependent on the quality and the quantity of information it holds. A lot
of human resource activities and a lot of human resource professionals are involved in obtaining
and updating the database. Acquiring, storing and retrieving all this information is a huge challenge
for the management. Once the database is established, maintenance becomes much easier but it is
important to remember that the information is secure and the privacy of the employees is protected.
