When you may need this

  • When you’re setting up HRStop for your organization for the first time.
  • When company information like address, logo, or contact details needs to be updated.
  • When you need to manage structural data such as departments, designations, or business units.
  • When billing information needs to be maintained for accurate invoicing.

Prerequisites

  • You must be an Administrator with permission to manage the Settings module in HRStop.
