Before supporting the client’s transition to a fully digital HR solution, Zalaris will initially support payroll processing of the retailer’s existing systems.  

Up to the beginning of 2026, it will implement the Zalaris Peoplehub Retail Solution, which includes processes for payroll, digital personnel file, travel expenses and time management.  

This transformation will digitise all HR processes using SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central and Performance and Goals.
