- **[Review and Assign HR Service Console Permissions](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=service.es_review_and_assign_hr_service_workspace_permissions.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5)**  
    Service representatives access HR Service Console in their Salesforce org through supported editions, add-ons, and permissions.
- **[Configure Dashboard and Reports](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=service.es_configure_dashboard_and_reports.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5)**  
    When a service representative accesses the Home tab, the dashboard shows a visual summary of the cases assigned to them. To ensure a service representative sees information only about the cases assigned to them and not all cases, you must configure the dashboard to convert it from a static dashboard to a dynamic dashboard.
- **[Configure Employee Profile Card Component](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=service.es_configure_the_employee_profile_component.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5)**  
    The Person Account Record page in HR Service Console contains the Employee Profile Card component. The component shows employee information to the service representative. You can also add the component to a case, messaging session, and voice call record page.
- **[Provide Access to Account, Contact, and Employee Objects](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=service.es_provide_access_to_account_and_contact.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5)**

    Your service representatives can use screen flows to create and update employee records.
- **[Set Up Knowledge](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=service.es_set_up_knowledge.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5)**  
    HR Service uses Salesforce Knowledge to help service representatives manage knowledge articles in HR Service Console. Your service representatives can author, publish, and manage the articles to help employees find answers and solutions to their issues.
- **[Set Up Voice Calls](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=service.es_set_up_voice_calls.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5)**  
    With Salesforce Voice with Telephony Providers (formerly Service Cloud Voice), service representatives can receive and place calls from HR Service Console to resolve employee issues.
- **[Employee Feedback Management](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=service.es_employee_feedback_management.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5)**  
    To improve the HR service experience, configure Salesforce Surveys to send a survey automatically to an employee when their case is closed. To view the survey responses, build a report and dashboard.
