Verstegen accountants: Working more efficiently with HR workflows

Verstegen accountants identified a significant opportunity to automate repetitive HR and payroll processes. The company provides comprehensive support to clients from A to Z – from preparing and reviewing financial statements, tax advice, HR services, corporate finance and estate planning to online accounting and payroll administration. They wanted to deliver these services more efficiently by automating repetitive processes, reducing error-proneness by minimising process steps, and creating a streamlined process where actions are triggered automatically.

Verstegen accountants implemented HR workflows from Nmbrs, enabling them to automate and streamline repetitive HR and payroll processes – from the moment an employee joins a company through to their departure. This includes expense claims, sickness notifications and everything involved in onboarding. The correct data 'flows' through the administration, right through to contracts. Angelique Bras, payroll administrator at Verstegen, configured workflows for employee onboarding and the preparation of associated contracts, processing expense claims and leave requests, sickness notifications and changes of address.

HR workflows take a significant workload off payroll administrators and save time. Administrations become less error-prone because clients or their employees enter data directly, which then 'flows' via workflows to the correct places in the administration and appears on contracts. The risk of errors is considerably reduced. HR workflows ensure process continuity – for example, if a new employee does not upload their identity document, the process stalls and they will not receive their salary. With properly configured workflows, the system prompts the employee and the workflow automatically progresses once the identity document is uploaded. This is of great value to clients who are helped faster, save on costs and are assured that their employees are paid correctly.
