What level of control does the HR system administrator role (sn_hr_core.admin) provide?

The HR system administrator role (sn_hr_core.admin) is designed to provide comprehensive control over all aspects of human resources data within the ServiceNow platform. This role encompasses a range of permissions that enable the administrator to manage, configure, and oversee HR-related applications, data, and processes across the organization.

With this level of access, the HR system administrator can perform essential functions such as creating and managing HR workflows, configuring HR-specific applications, and ensuring compliance with organizational policies. The broad scope of control allows for holistic management of HR operations, making it crucial for maintaining the efficiency and integrity of HR services.

In contrast, limited access to HR data, control over specific HR applications only, and access solely to read HR reports reflect more restrictive permissions that would not empower the role to fully manage the HR environment effectively. Therefore, the comprehensive authority given to the HR system administrator underlines its critical role in the functioning of HR services within ServiceNow.
