One record of your people. Across every system.
Your people data lives in five systems and none of them agree. PeopleRecord brings it all together, for reporting, insight and history, without ripping anything out.
Your people data is everywhere. A single answer is nowhere.
Bits of the truth in every system, and a spreadsheet ritual every time leadership asks a question.
Bits of the truth in every system, none of them complete.
PeopleRecord: Pulls every system’s people data into one consistent model you can actually trust.
Export, VLOOKUP, reconcile, hope, every time leadership asks.
PeopleRecord: Cross-system reporting from one consolidated record, no spreadsheet ritual.
Switch a system and the past goes with it.
PeopleRecord: Keeps history queryable through a migration, the safety net instead of a frozen old system.
Every entity and country reports its own way.
PeopleRecord: One people view across entities and countries, even on different underlying tools.
One layer that brings it all together
PeopleRecord is the unified people-data layer across your systems. It pulls people data from wherever it lives: HRIS, payroll, time, ERP, through Popay Connect, into one consistent model you can report on, analyse and keep.
It doesn’t run your HR. It makes sense of it. Which means it works with or without Popay Core: nothing to rip out to get one trustworthy view.
Instead of five systems, five answers, and a spreadsheet to reconcile them.
Two records, two jobs
If you also run Popay Core, here’s how PeopleRecord and Core sit side by side. Same destination: governed people data. Two different routes.
The live, operational record
The complex, effective-dated source of truth inside Popay: person, org and position, kept current as HR happens, and the record every module runs on.
The simplified management layer
A clean, governed store that consolidates every system’s people data, including systems that aren’t Popay, to report, understand and archive. Not your operational master.
Core is where HR happens. PeopleRecord is where it all comes together.
See, understand and keep your people data
One consistent model over the systems you already run.
One unified model
Every system’s people data mapped to one consistent shape, so a report means the same thing everywhere.
Reporting & insight
Cross-system dashboards and analytics: headcount, cost, turnover, without the monthly spreadsheet ritual.
History & archive
Keep the past queryable when you switch a system, the payroll-migration safety net, instead of freezing an old system just to look things up.
Group consolidation
One people view across entities and countries, even when each runs different systems.
Exports & GL feeds
Push clean, consistent data downstream: finance, BI, whatever needs it, from one governed source.
One place to govern
Access, retention and audit across your people data, governed once, over every source system.
Your systems in. One record out.
People data flows in from HRIS, payroll, time and ERP through Popay Connect, is mapped to one consistent model, and comes back out as reporting, insight and archive, a single trustworthy view.
No rip-and-replace, no freezing old systems, no reconciliation spreadsheet. The systems stay; the truth gets consolidated.
Built for the moments spreadsheets can’t handle
Cross-system reporting
Payroll migration archive
Group consolidation
One record, feeding everything downstream
Consolidated once, shared everywhere it’s needed, no middleware, no manual syncing.
Popay Connect
The pipe that feeds PeopleRecord from every source system, both directions.
Popay Insights
The business layer and dashboards that sit on top of the consolidated record.
Payroll
Feed clean, consistent people data to payroll, and keep the history when you switch provider.
Finance / BI
Exports and GL feeds push governed data downstream to finance and your BI stack.
Frequently asked questions
Is PeopleRecord the same as Popay Core?+
No. Popay Core is your operational master, the complex, effective-dated record your modules actually run on. PeopleRecord is a simplified management store that consolidates data from the systems you keep, for reporting, archive and group consolidation. Same goal: governed people data. Two different routes.
Do I need Popay Core, or Popay at all, to use it?+
No. PeopleRecord works with or without Popay Core. It aggregates people data from whatever you run: HRIS, payroll, time, ERP, including non-Popay systems, through Popay Connect. It makes sense of your HR; it doesn’t have to run it.
How does data get into PeopleRecord?+
Through Popay Connect: the integration layer pulls people data from each source on a schedule or on demand and maps it to one consistent model. No manual export-and-import, and every flow is monitored and traceable.
Can it keep history when we change a system?+
Yes, that’s a core use. Instead of freezing an old payroll or HR system just to look things up, PeopleRecord keeps the past queryable. It’s the migration safety net for switching providers.
How is it governed?+
Access, retention and audit are managed in one place across every source system, so a single set of rules covers all your people data.
Is it our operational master data?+
No, deliberately. PeopleRecord is a simplified management layer for reporting, insight and archive, not the effective-dated record HR modules transact on. If you want Popay to be your operational master, that’s Popay Core, the other route to the same governed destination.
