Self-Service Portal
The Self-Service Portal is every employee’s personal home inside XBuddy. Instead of emailing HR to request leave or asking for a payslip, employees do it themselves — submit requests, view their own records, and keep their profile up to date, all from one place.
It is platform-free, meaning every employee gets access regardless of which packs your company subscribes to. The portal is intentionally read-mostly and scoped to the logged-in user: people only ever see their own leave, payslips, attendance, OKRs, and documents. This offloads routine questions from HR and Payroll while giving employees transparency into their own data.
The Self-Service Portal is available to all employees — it does not consume a pack seat. Data flows from HR, Payroll, LMS, and OKR; employees act on their own records only.
