Address
Service 
Use
An employee’s address is often used in conjunction with his or her name in a variety of employee lists and forms, as well as for address labels.
The Address service enables the employees at your enterprise to display and edit their own addresses. In this way, employees can keep their own data up-to-date, while simultaneously reducing the number of time-consuming and expensive activities performed by the Human Resources Department.
If an employee uses this service to update his or her address data, the old data is automatically delimited. Old HR data is not lost. Instead, it is kept in full so that historical evaluations are possible.

The Addresses service has country-specific screens for:

The screen that appears for a specific employee depends on that employee’s assignment to a certain personnel area.
