Years ago, when SAP Business One was often talked about as a small ERP for very small companies, it was not foreseeable that SAP Business One would grow into a solution that addressed companies with several hundred employees.
Whether intentionally or not, the fact is that SAP Business One now feels at home in such companies. There are almost no more areas where SAP Business One must be able to cope with "bigger" challenges. Where the standard cannot, one of hundreds of extensions is available.
However, there is one area that is still somewhat neglected: Human Resource. SAP Business One can indeed record and manage HR master data and there are solutions for payroll, leave and time recording. But the demands of dynamically growing SMEs go beyond that. The demand for solutions for personnel management, from applicant management to further training coordination, is increasing. In this context, personnel should not only be managed. Constant, coordinated communication is to be managed. Employees are to be accompanied and supported. Opportunities and risks are to be recognised at an early stage and personnel development measures are to be planned.
A software company from India has now made a start. ALTURA PLEDGE is the name of the HR software that actually promises one thing.
PLEDGE is an SAP Business One is a full-featured human capital management (HCM) solution for medium-sized enterprises.
Currently, HCM solution is equipped with country-specific and regulatory compliant templates for countries in Asia-Pacific, Middle East and Africa. It offers features that are on par with enterprise-class HR solutions.
Let's see if they dare to make the leap to Europe. However, this can also be used as an incentive for German manufacturers of HCM software.
