The employee profile holds all the information about the employee. This employee information is used in other modules when required. Therefore it is very important to have the employee profile as complete as possible for a smooth operation.

The Employee Profile, in the PIM module, is where an employee's data can be viewed, edited, and stored. An employee's profile can be accessed via the Employee List in the PIM module.

To go to an employee's profile, you need to navigate to PIM > Employee List and then you can search for the employee's name from the search bar.
