Integration with AFAS

Automate employee onboarding, internal transfers, and offboarding to your IT landscape

Let IT automatically adapt to HR processes. New employees receive immediate access to the right systems, job changes are processed automatically, and upon termination, access is immediately revoked. This facilitates faster, more consistent onboarding and offboarding without manual steps.

Waarom zou je, jouw IT-omgeving koppelen met AFAS?

Automatiseer identity management vanuit AFAS

In many organisations, errors, delays, and security risks arise because HR systems and IT environments operate separately. With Joinly's HR ↔ Microsoft Entra ID integration, you can use your HR system as the central source for identity management. This way, accounts, roles, and access are automatically synchronised based on HR data, without manual actions.

When an employee is created in your HR package, Joinly ensures that they are automatically created in your identity provider. Then, as an IT or HR team and as an employee, you receive automated messages about your changes. This way, IT is always in control, HR can track whether employees are successfully onboarded, and employees get immediate access to the company software they need.

Automatic onboarding, offboarding and changes

Microsoft Entra is a powerful identity platform, but it is not designed for daily operational management in growing organisations. As soon as you have more users, systems, and processes, friction arises.
Management often takes place through multiple portals, separate configurations, and manual actions. For simple tasks such as onboarding, role changes, or offboarding, multiple steps are required. Many teams solve this with PowerShell scripts or temporary workarounds, which make management even more vulnerable.
In hybrid environments, this problem becomes even larger. The combination of on-premises Active Directory and cloud Entra creates duplicate processes, synchronisation challenges, and an increased management burden. What started as a straightforward setup quickly grows into a complex landscape that is difficult to control.

Common problems in practice
❌ Manual account creation in multiple systems
❌ Forgotten offboarding and leftover accounts
❌ Permissions that persist after role changes
❌ Dependence on error-prone scripts
❌ Stress around audits and compliance controls

The consequence: higher workload for IT, more security risks, and less control over who has access to what.

Betere security & compliance

Access is automatically adjusted with role changes and immediately revoked upon termination of employment. This helps prevent zombie accounts and makes it easier to comply with security and audit requirements.

Less management, more control

IT no longer needs to manage manual accounts. Everything is handled centrally, predictably, and transparently via Joinly with logging, monitoring, and error handling.

Save on software costs

Nothing is more annoying than paying for something you don't use. Joinly automatically deactivates accounts that are not used.

Integrating AFAS with Joinly: Automatic user management

AFAS Profit is the central source for HRM, payroll, and personnel management for many organizations. But as long as AFAS is not connected to the rest of your applications, user management remains a manual and error-prone process.

The challenge: manual user management

AFAS contains up-to-date, reliable personnel data, but without a direct integration with your IT landscape, problems arise:

IT manages accounts manually via Excel, email, or separate lists
Employees unnecessarily wait for access to systems upon hiring
Accounts of departed employees remain active for too long
HR and IT work separately, resulting in inconsistencies

All of this leads to increased risks of data breaches, loss of productivity, and unnecessary workload for IT management.

The solution: integrating AFAS via Joinly

Joinly offers a robust, proven integration between AFAS and all your business software. We automate the entire process of user provisioning and deprovisioning, based on the data in your AFAS HR administration.

What this integration delivers:

New employees automatically receive accounts in the applications they need
Changes in position, department, or contract are immediately reflected in all your applications
Accounts are automatically deactivated upon termination
HR takes the lead; IT no longer has to perform manual actions

With the AFAS integration, a streamlined chain from HR to IT is created. This improves security, increases efficiency, and shortens the time-to-productivity during onboarding.

Certified AFAS integration partner

Joinly (KoppelHet) is certified by AFAS as an integration partner. This ensures that you have an integration that has been checked and certified by AFAS itself.

HR as the new source of truth for Identity & Access Management

More and more organizations are shifting from IT-driven to HR-driven identity management. No longer does the helpdesk decide who gets access, but the HR system that records the lifecycle of each employee. In this article, you will learn why HR is the new source of truth for IAM.

HR-driven provisioning: automate hiring, transfers, and departures

Every employee goes through a journey within the organisation: they join, sometimes change roles or departments, and eventually leave the company. At each step, access and permissions must be carefully managed. Traditionally, this often happens manually: HR registers someone, IT creates accounts, managers request additional permissions… The result? A lot of work, errors, and risks.
