Companies moving from Salesforce to an HRIS or document management system often store years of employee files — offer letters, contracts, performance reviews — inside Salesforce. Getting them out cleanly is the first challenge.
What HR Files Are Typically Stored in Salesforce
- Employee offer letters and employment contracts
- Performance review documents and appraisal notes
- Onboarding paperwork and ID verification files
- Payroll records and benefit enrollment forms
The Migration Challenge
- Files are linked to Contact or custom HR object records — not easy to extract in bulk
- The destination HRIS typically requires files organized by employee name or ID
- Manual download is not scalable when thousands of employee records are involved
How SFDC File Exporter Helps
- Filter by parent object (e.g., Contact or a custom Employee object)
- Files are exported into folders named after the parent record — ready for HRIS import
- Metadata CSV maps every file to its Salesforce record ID and owner
- No AppExchange install, no changes to your Salesforce org
- Download free and run the export the same day
Filter by the Contact or Employee object to export only HR-related files and skip other attachments in the org.
