According to the section “Current Limitations...” in this article Azure Active Directory – Personio the integration with (Azure) Active Directory is currently limited to pure cloud(-only) environments. Most likely many customers are still running AD onprem and syncing it with Azure AD. In such cases (according to this article: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/app-provisioning/plan-cloud-hr-provision) the so called Azure AD Connect Provisioning Agent can be used to provision accounts from the HR app to Active Directory which is subsequently synced to Azure AD. Typically there is a second component syncing back email addresses and other attributes to HR. Are there any plans to implement this functionality?Cheers,AZITC

Hi, I would like to add more than one recipient to the automated emails of our onboarding template (e.g. email goes to new employee and their supervisor). How can I set that up? 

I want to remove some products from my subscription. How do I do it?

This is a ‘call out’ to others based in the various UK nations and across Ireland.Having had a really constructive conversation with Personio I am keen to establish an active group of community members with a focus on UK+IE.The topics are intended to cover all aspects of HR/People - but with a narrower scope.Anyone is welcome to join and look forward to meeting/engaging with you.

Where can I find instructions how to terminate the subscription?

Hi there,Not really a question but an observation:  When I process a payout of overtime in Personio I get a message that “overtime was payed out successfully”.  Can you change the “payed” to “paid”?The word payed exists but does not refer to a financial transaction. It is a nautical expression:Payed definition: Although it is sometimes applied as the past tense of pay, using payed for paid is not correct.That being said, there is a sense in which payed can be correct. In nautical terms, payed is the past tense of pay, meaning to use pitch as a seal to prevent leaks.For example:To make the boat seaworthy, a sailor payed the open creases between the planks with hot tar. (Past Tense Verb)Please avoid using the word payed for paid.Sorry to be picky, but it hits me in the face every time I pay out overtime 😯😪!Have a great day!Cheers,Linda

Hi all,Is it just us or has Personio changed the font style and size for some fields?  The font size is very small and doesn’t match the rest of the optics.  Maybe it is something on our end that we need to look at. Just asking to get clarity.Cheers, and enjoy your day!Linda

Dear All, Would it be possible to make workflows for employee requests.  For eg. an employee’s mouse or keyboard ( which is an employee attribute) is not working and wants to request new one. Would it be possible to create a workflow where the employee requests the same and can be approved by the direct manager and is visible to the IT responsible. Lakshmi

Hi there, I would like to edit my company domain to simplify login and any URL generated related to my Personio company site. Can you please tell me which are the next steps to proceed with the edit? Many thanks

Does anyone know why the login of Personio cannot be remembered. We continuously have to login for each session. 

Dear All, Recently we have been experiencing that the system is a bit slow than it used to be and there is always a very noticeable time lag to navigate to each page.  Most of our users has rated this system less in terms of user experience.  Not sure is this is something just our company is facing . Are there any solutions to this so we can have seamless experience while using personio.  ThanksLakshmi

Dear Community,Many of you may feel the same way as we do. Sad, shocked and helpless because of the war in Ukraine. This is all quite understandable in light of the terrible events that are unfolding. Our thoughts are with all those affected and we #StandWithUkraine. Perhaps, you have people in your teams who are directly affected or may be worried about their friends and family. Therefore, it is now your task as HR professionals to support your employees in this situation as best as possible. We hope that we can help some of you by sharing our initiatives below, and we especially look forward to hearing more ideas from your side, too. How do you deal with this issue? As an HR Professional, what challenges are you facing that you need help with? At Personio we have 14 colleagues who were born in Ukraine and/or are Ukrainian citizens, and 25 colleagues with Russian roots. There are also several colleagues who have partners or friends in these countries. All of them are equally worried

Hi community and Personio, Would it be possible to select multiple onboarding templates at once? For example:A general one for every new employee Additional onboarding templates per department or if team lead

Currently, in order to share information with an external collaborator you have to create a profile like any other employee and rescind their permissions. It would be very useful if these people had a different profile with basic information (email, name of the contact person, phone number, person within the organization with whom they are working directly...) in the documents section  the collaboration agreement and a section for service costs instead of payroll. This would imply that they would not appear in the organization chart, or that the system would count them as one more employee in the total number of employees because it leads to confusion.  

Hi,More of a product request I believe. But is there a way for the company to create employee badges and grant them to its employees? Eg “Employee of the Month”

Hi! My coworker is working with a new mobile phone. This means that we should also be able to install the MFA/2FA authenticator on this mobile phone. For Personio we've noticed it is a bit more difficult to get the authentication working on her new mobile phone. We also noticed that it is only possible to log in, in Personio, with the authenticator app of Google.Will it the future also be able to log in via the authentication app of Microsoft? And do you perhaps have a instruction how my collegue could have the log in of Personio in her authenticator app on her new mobile phone up and running again? For example, other applications where you need to log in with an authenticator app, you have a QR-code. 

Dear Personio Support Team,Would be possible to export the calendar public holidays in pdf format (for example)?This option should be very useful because in Spain regulation (f.e.) is mandatory to public this calendar the first of January for employees and it is mandatory also this calendar is signed by the Company.Thank you!!
