Impact Integrator

Maximize the benefits of Performance Impact Enterprise, the leading performance management system for enterprise environments, without having to maintain your employee information in two separate databases.

Performance Impact Enterprise


KnowledgePoint's Impact Integrator module ensures data synchronization between Performance Impact Enterprise and your HR information system - virtually eliminating duplicate data entry and reducing human errors. Impact Integrator is an Enterprise Application Integration (EAI) module that synchronizes data either at scheduled intervals or in real time. It allows you to define how data will be exchanged and updated, what data will be synchronized, and when the integration will take place.

Overview of Synchonization

Impact Integrator:

  • Provides two-way data exchange between Performance Impact Enterprise and any HR information system.
  • Allows customized data mapping with flexible data definition.
  • Offers system event audit logging with notifications.
  • Encrypts data for security.
  • Creates and populates employee records automatically in Performance Impact Enterprise.
  • Automatically sets up users in Performance Impact Enterprise with default permissions based on the user roles in your HR information system.

Impact Integrator adapts Performance Impact Enterprise’s security model to that of your HR information system by actively mapping permissions back to Performance Impact Enterprise. In addition, your system administrator can also define specific data mapping between the two systems. And all the data is stored and transmitted in an encrypted format that ensures a high degree of security – vitally important to your organization because of the sensitive nature of the data stored in your HR information system.

Not only can Impact Integrator automatically create employee records in Performance Impact Enterprise when new employees are added to your HR information system, it can also generate user names and passwords automatically based on the profiles (role mapping) contained in your database. Imagine the time you’ll save – and the increased accuracy your organization will realize by integrating these two vital systems.

To achieve secure data synchronization and integration between your HR information system and your performance management process, add the Impact Integrator module to your Performance Impact Enterprise system.
