Overview
Sometimes an employee, manager, or admin will need to update their personal details when their circumstances change. These changes can include needing to update an employee's account email if they switch email provider, their home address if they have moved, or their mobile phone number if they change to another carrier.
The Personal Details feature is where you update these details if they change, with the HR platform reflecting these changes throughout the entire platform. This means there is only one place you need to update your details if they change, making sure your employee record on the HR platform is always up to date.
Important
The email verification process requires all users to verify their details every time they update their own account email or another user's account email.

Author recommended
So you have now managed your personnel details and you are now wondering, what next can I do. There are two recommendations I would make on this front and they are:
- HR employee file: Uploaded documents This feature allows you to upload documentation against a chosen employee file and control who has access to this information.
- HR employee file: Management notes This feature allows you to add information via a free text field to an employee's file, with no limit on the amount of notes you can add.
