The purpose of the SyncResponsePersonnel is to enable the SyncResponsehronization of employee data that exists on separate data bases between manufacturing and human resource applications. The SyncResponsePersonnel allows the adding of new employees and their relevant data as well as the modification of previously established employees.

The SyncResponsePersonnel is used to facilitate the maintenance of human resource data in a manufacturing work force planning module. This enables the workforce planning module to use current personnel information when creating finite production schedules. The SyncResponsePersonnel can also be used by a project accounting application or a work order management application to assign qualified personnel or to perform resource planning.
