HRIS implementation & migration

Switch HR systems, keep your history

Our team builds your company's structure, moves people, pay and leave balances with a preview of every change, and sets the rules Skailer runs by.
01Migrated by our team
We move your data from your HR system, ATS and spreadsheets.
02Previewed before it's written
See what will be created, updated or skipped, row by row.
03A small team on your side
One owner and a test group; everyone else joins at go-live.
04Included in your plan
Implementation is part of the one Skailer plan, at no extra fee.
The problem

The switch is the part everyone postpones

Forty columns, three date formats, leave balances that only add up in the old tool, and an HR team that still has payroll to close on Friday.
What moves

Your HR history, not just a list of names

HR system migration with Skailer covers people, employment, positions, pay, custom tables and leave, with effective dates and history, plus candidates from your ATS. Any system that exports CSV or XLSX can be the source.
01People and employment
profiles, contracts, work patterns, FTE and probation, with dates
02Positions and pay
manager, department and location history, salaries and bonuses
03Time off
current balances and past leave, imported as separate types
04Custom tables and ATS
equipment or certifications, and candidates from your ATS
Previewed imports

See every change before it's written

Each import shows, per column, how many records will be created, updated or skipped, and lists errors by row before anything is saved. Your team checks samples of balances, salaries and managers before go-live.
01Preview per column
created, updated, skipped or not found, counted before saving
02Errors by row
every problem row listed before anything is written
03Ready-made templates
7 XLSX templates, from people to time off balances and history
04Import data permission
any role you grant can upload CSV or XLSX files and map columns
Your rules

Skailer works by your rules from day one

We set up the role model and flows: who sees what, who approves what, and what happens on a promotion, transfer or department change. New companies start from working defaults, which we adjust to yours.
01Role model
who sees which fields and which people, set role by role
02Approval chains
default approval policies adjusted to how you approve today
03Flows on role changes
a promotion, transfer or department change starts the right flow
04Ready-made defaults
leave types, a hiring pipeline, scorecards and survey templates
Sign-in and integrations

Sign-in and integrations ready before invites

Before anyone gets an invitation, IT turns on Google or Microsoft Entra ID sign-in and 2FA, and our team helps connect Slack, Google Calendar and email. Then we train admins and managers, and you invite employees.
01Google or Microsoft
sign-in with Google or Microsoft Entra ID, chosen by your admin
02Required 2FA
two-factor authentication for everyone before the first invite
03Slack and calendars
Slack, Google Calendar and email connected with our team's help
04Training
admins and managers trained before employees are invited
One HR platform

One system for the full HR cycle from day one

Implementation gets you live; customer success keeps you running after go-live. Records, roles, pay, leave, hiring and surveys start on one record.

How does HRIS implementation work at Skailer?

HRIS implementation at Skailer moves a company from its current HR system or spreadsheets in four phases: scope and source review, migration and setup, validation, and go-live. Skailer owns the migration work and your team owns the decisions. The Skailer team handles HRIS migration of people, employment, positions, compensation, custom tables, leave and candidates from your ATS, and every import is previewed before it's written. Implementation is included in the plan and doesn't cover payroll setup.
How it works

Your HRIS implementation plan

01Scope and source review
We agree what moves, your structure, roles and flows, the integrations and how the result will be checked.
02Migration and setup
We map and migrate your data and configure rules and integrations; nobody on your side rebuilds records.
03Validation
A small group from your team checks history, permissions and approvals, and we fix what they find.
04Go-live and training
You sign off, we run launch checks and train admins and managers, then everyone else joins Skailer.
