Did you know that for a business owner outsourcing the development of a Time In/Time Out module for a web-based HRIS, the software developer will be much more successful if they provide business documents, not just verbal instructions.

Think of it as giving an architect blueprints before constructing a house.

Large HRIS vendors typically prepare:

1. Functional Requirements Specification (FRS)

2. Process Maps

3. Data Dictionary

4. Use Cases/User Stories

5. Screen Mockups

6. Report Specifications

7. Role and Permission Matrix

8. Test Cases

9. Acceptance Criteria

Together, these documents become the blueprint from which developers build and testers validate the module.

The minimum documents I recommend for a customized HRIS would be a combination of an FRS document, Excel data dictionary, process flow diagrams, and screen mockups.

This usually is sufficient to begin development effectively.
