Consolidate Staff Data with MCP Server

The `get_employee_details` tool pulls specific worker records, keeping your team's code accurate. You can also get a full staff list using `list_employees`, which is perfect for onboarding scripts. To understand the organization's structure, commit to using `list_company_departments` and `list_office_locations`.

Track Time and Leave with MCP Server

For time tracking, use `get_attendance_summary` to get aggregated metrics across the board. If you need raw data, `list_attendance_logs` gives every clock-in/out record. Leave management is covered by `list_leave_requests`, which cross-references available types from `list_available_leave_types`.

Map the Recruitment Pipeline

Your team can use `list_job_postings` to pull all active job openings into a shared repo. Similarly, `list_job_candidates` gives applicants' status. This covers both external hiring and internal moves; check out `list_job_requests` for departmental needs.
