Use of HRSD module in App Creation

[NishaB]

Hi,

I am developing an application using ServiceNow App Engine Studio. It is Employee CSR Application where the employees can volunteer for an event etc. For the employee sign in page, is it necessary to use HRSD module? Or can I just create  a simple login page? What are the disadvantages if I'm using HRSD module?

If you cannot leverage HRSD module then you can use custom application and there is no harm in it. But custom application requires licensing cost and all hence decide and move on.

Hi @NishaB ,

HRSD Module is designed and configured in a scoped app format considering the data abstractions and confidentiality. If you feel that the event management app is going to have the PII (Personal Identity Information) and you already have the HRSD module installed and configured, you can leverage the HRSD functionalities.

However if you don't have HRSD Licence purchased as of now, then building event management with HR module wont be recommended way, as it consist of cost for licence. 

Also when you say employee sign in I believe you are talking about the Instance Access for employees, that is OOB without need of any customization. you can use same sign in post creation of user profile for the user.

Hi NishaB,

You don't need the HRSD module for a simple login page. It's only necessary if you're integrating HR-related features or accessing employee data from ServiceNow. Using HRSD could add complexity, so if it's not required for your app, a custom login page might be a simpler, more efficient choice.

Hope this helps!
