What is Sage HR?

Sage HR, formerly known as CakeHR, is a modular cloud HR system from Sage, the UK software company best known for accounting and payroll. It is aimed at small and mid-sized businesses and starts with core HR and leave management, with optional modules for performance, shift scheduling, timesheets, expenses and recruitment. The recruitment module adds hiring pipelines, job landing pages, interview scheduling and scorecards. Sage HR is often chosen by companies that already use Sage for payroll or accounting.

Starting a screening from Sage HR

HR starts a Pescheck screening for an applicant or employee without re-entering their details. The setup can follow the pipeline stage your team uses for this step.

Candidate details flow in

Name, email address and the job come from Sage HR, so the candidate gets the right Pescheck invitation straight away.

Status comes back

Progress is visible from Sage HR's side as far as Sage HR's API allows, so HR can see whether a check is still running or finished.

Sensitive documents stay in Pescheck

ID scans, certificates and criminal record checks stay in Pescheck's ISO 27001 certified environment, not in your HR system.

Where screening fits in a Sage HR workflow

In Sage HR, applicants move through the recruitment pipeline and become employees in the same system once they are hired. A background check usually sits between those two moments: after the offer and before the first working day. For some roles, for example in finance, care or security, existing employees are also re-screened from time to time.

Without an integration, a small HR team ends up copying details into a separate screening tool and following up by email, which takes time it does not have. With the integration, the screening starts from the person who is already in Sage HR.

Connected through Kombo

How the connection works

Pescheck connects with Sage HR through Kombo, an integration platform for HR software. Your Sage HR admin authorises the connection once. In Pescheck you decide which checks belong to which roles, such as ID, criminal record, employment history, references, diplomas, PEP and sanctions or credit checks, and our integration team helps you map this to your setup.

Connect once

Your admin connects Sage HR to Pescheck through Kombo with a secure authorisation. No custom development.

Start screening where you work

Recruiters and HR start a Pescheck screening from the record in Sage HR. The candidate gets a secure invitation to give consent.

Follow progress in one place

Status updates come back to the record, so nobody copies data between systems.

Who uses it

The integration suits small and mid-sized companies that run recruitment and employee records in Sage HR and hire in the Netherlands, Germany or elsewhere in Europe. It fits lean HR teams that want screening to be a fixed, GDPR-compliant step in hiring without adding admin, especially in sectors where a verified identity, references or a certificate of conduct is required.
