The business
Harbor People Partners is a Boston professional services firm. Tracking leave, holidays and payroll in spreadsheets takes time away from client work, so the firm keeps its HR records and payroll runs in one place.

What the video walks through
- Departments such as People Operations and Client Delivery, each with its manager hierarchy.
- Custom leave policies (Casual, Sick, Annual) with US and company-specific holidays.
- Salary structures assigned to employees, and a monthly payroll run (PAY-HARBOR-2026-07) calculated from them.
- Travel and meal claims submitted by a consultant and linked to the consultant's employee profile for reimbursement.
- One employee directory, from managing partners to staff on probation.
What this shows
Leave, payroll and reimbursements read from the same employee records, so a payroll run starts from structures that are already set up rather than from a new spreadsheet each month.
