New in Profit 5

HR

Distance calculation when supplementing data

The applicant can provide their address information later through Additional data by using the Onboarding functionality. As a result, no distance calculation takes place while onboarding a new employee.

This will change as from Profit 5! We are introducing the option of calculating the commuting distance when registering the address by using additional information. You can choose between the fastest or shortest route. Use the new Google Maps API communication profile to make the distance calculation.

Note: to use this communication profile, the Google Maps Routes API must be activated in Google Cloud Console. Want to know more about activating? Click here! 

 

UpdateConnector Onboarding

We introduced the Onboarding UpdateConnector (HrOnboarding) in Profit 4 that allows you to start the Onboarding workflow.  The Onboarding UpdateConnector has been expanded with the ability to add attachments as from Profit 5.

2025 legal changes

The following legal changes apply to payroll tax forms as from 2025:

  • Changing the employee code

You cannot simply change an employee's code if it was first sent without a Citizen Service Number (BSN) in the payroll tax form. First, send a new payroll tax form with the employee's BSN. After the Tax Administration has received this form, you can change the employee's code.

  • No relationship of authority

    The 'Owner's family' and 'Previous owner' fields have been renamed to 'No relationship of authority with the owner's family' and 'No relationship of authority with previous owner'.

    Note: You cannot select these fields if an employee is insured for employee insurances.

  • Number of contract hours a week
    The way Profit calculates the number of contract hours per week has been improved. This is particularly important for employees participating in a generation scheme and for new employees who have not yet had a wage calculation.

Suppress payroll tax form

You can now easily suppress payroll tax forms in Profit without requesting the consultancy mode from Support. You can do this for the following situations:

  • Payroll tax number allocated mid-year
  • Payback to existing employer

Select how Profit must process sending and suppressing payroll tax forms in the new Send payroll tax form field under Tax Administration.

Advantages:

  • No consultancy mode required.

  • Clear overview: You can immediately see which form lines are not sent by suppressing the Send status.

More great functionality

  • CAPTCHA key on job application creation
    To ensure the security and reliability of the application process, we have made it possible to apply a CAPTCHA in the Job Application Creation (incl. authorization) (OutSite) and Job Application Creation (OutSite) templates. You define this in the settings of the template.
     
  • Onboarding delegation model
    We added the Onboarding delegation category to the delegation model. Now you can give users rights to the onboarding functionality.
     
  • Capturing personal documents through KnEmployee

    You can now also record multiple personal documents with the KnEmployee UpdateConnector. The AfasIdentityDocument subobject has been given the necessary fields to record all categories of personal documents.

    This functionality was rolled out via a patch on Profit 4 on 9 November 2024.

  • Onboarding - Scheduled date removal
    During onboarding, an applicant is always created. After completing the onboarding workflow, this applicant can be deleted again. To simplify the removal of applicants, the field 'Scheduled date removal' is now automatically filled based on settings. You can read here which settings these are exactly.
