What HR challenges does it address?

OpenText Content Management extends SAP SuccessFactors with full document management across the entire employee lifecycle. During recruitment and onboarding, it enables contract generation, offer storage, and electronic signing.

It also supports life events and benefits such as parental leave, relocation, or training entitlements. Finally, it covers offboarding, ensuring equipment returns, access termination, and complete archiving of documents within the digital personnel file. Thanks to its integration with SuccessFactors, HR specialists have all relevant documents in one place—without switching between systems.
