Overview
Panorama365 (P365) is a modern Employee Self-Service Portal that connects directly with Softera Payroll for Business Central. The integration ensures that employee data managed in Business Central is automatically synchronized with the portal, giving employees convenient access to their personal information, absences, benefits, and more — all from a single platform.
How It Works
Data flows primarily from Softera Payroll to Panorama365, keeping the portal up to date with the latest payroll and HR records. Certain areas — such as absence requests, benefits, and working hours — support two-way synchronization, allowing employees to submit requests directly through the portal that are then processed in Business Central.
