Our AFAS connection in practice: less manual work, more overview

As an HR or L&D professional, you want to be primarily concerned with developing people, not keeping up with systems. But if your learning environment doesn't mesh well with your HR software, it takes time. And energy. You want to be confident that users are loaded correctly and that results achieved automatically end up in the right place.

‍That's whywe developed a certified link between AFAS and Procademy. So that your HR and learning processes connect seamlessly, without looking back.

✅ What does certified coupling mean?

Our link has been reviewed and certified by AFAS according to their guidelines. This means that:

• the integration uses official AFAS APIs (GetConnectors and UpdateConnectors),
• the link has been extensively tested in an AFAS acceptance environment,
• an external PEN test was performed to ensure safety,
• we successfully completed a technical and functional demo,
• and we are published on the AFAS partner page.

This certification confirms that our connection is secure, reliable and future-proof. And thanks to this recognition, we are also allowed to use the AFAS logo in our communications.

👥 F ull automation of user management

Using multiple GetConnectors, we automatically pull in the right data from AFAS. Think of:

• Organization chart: understanding the organizational structure and linked managers.
• Team: identifiable departments or organizational units.
• Employee Data:
  • First and last name
  • E-mail address
  • Function (through unique IDs)
  • Department
  • Employee ID (employee number)
  • Relationship between employee and manager

🔄 Automatic feedback to AFAS

With the UpdateConnector, certificates of completed training courses are automatically written back to the personnel file in AFAS. Among other things, the following data is recorded:

• Training title
• Date of completion
• PDF document (certificate / proof of participation)

📊 Dashboard for managers

The link with AFAS provides not only automatic synchronization, but also a clear management dashboard.

Ideal for managers and executives who want to easily track their team's progress. The complete organizational structure from AFAS forms the basis for this. Thus, each manager automatically sees the employees linked to him or her, including their learning status.

🧩 New: Profit Functions Connector

With this extension, you no longer link employees by job title, but by unique functions from AFAS. As a result:

• Learning paths are automatically matched to the job profile
• No need to manually track job changes anymore

Fully dynamic, fully automatic.
