Custom Buddee integration development
Appfront builds integrations with Buddee, the HR and payroll software for SMEs. Buddee has an API and ready-made integrations with, among others, payroll software, accounting, rostering and recruitment software. For anything not covered there, we build the integration: employees from Buddee into your own systems and apps, leave and absence into your planning, and HR figures into your own dashboard.
What is a Buddee integration?
Buddee is HR and payroll software for SMEs, covering among other things personnel records, leave and absence, performance reviews, time recording and payroll. Buddee has an API and ready-made integrations with, among others, payroll software, accounting packages, rostering and recruitment software and calendars. For packages on that list a standard integration is often enough; for your own systems a custom integration is needed.
Without an integration, a new employee is created in Buddee and then again in the planning, the own app and IT administration. A leave request is approved in Buddee, but the planner does not see it. An employee who leaves keeps access to systems because nobody passes it on. And management wants to see absence and turnover alongside other business figures, which someone then pulls out of exports.
We build custom software because the integration has to fit your business: which systems you use alongside Buddee, which system is the source for employee data, what needs to happen when people join or leave, and which figures you want to see. We look at which data the Buddee API offers in the first step.
Employees from a single source
Employees, roles and departments from Buddee in your own systems and apps, without double entry.
Leave and absence in planning
Approved leave and absence from Buddee in your planning or rota.
HR in your dashboard
Absence, turnover and staffing from Buddee in your own dashboard.
How we build your Buddee integration
We start with your systems: which ones you use alongside Buddee, where data is entered twice, and what needs to happen when people join and leave.
Your planning, apps, time registration, IT administration and dashboard.
Buddee's API connected to your systems, for employees, leave and absence.
Testing with real employees and requests, error monitoring, and a log.
Phased go-live, and maintenance when Buddee or your systems change.
What a Buddee integration actually does
The components below come up in almost every Buddee integration. Which ones you need depends on your systems.
Employees
Employees, roles and departments to your systems.
Joiners and leavers
Trigger account and equipment setup when people join, and access removal when they leave.
Leave
Approved leave in planning and rota.
Absence
Absence to planning, with only what is needed.
Hours
Hours from your own time registration into Buddee.
Dashboard
Absence, turnover and staffing in your dashboard.
Who we build Buddee integrations for
The integration is designed for businesses that use Buddee alongside their own systems.
Businesses with their own planning
Scheduling shifts or projects. Leave in planning is the core.
Companies with their own app
An app for employees. A single source for employees matters most.
Businesses with high staff turnover
Many joiners and leavers. The start of accounts is what matters most.
Growing businesses
HR alongside other figures. The dashboard is the core.
Technology and integrations
This page is about integrations with Buddee. For custom absence management, see our page on absence management software, for a different HR package our page on an HR Office integration, and for accounting our page on a Moneybird integration. You can read about our approach at building software.
Why choose Appfront for your Buddee integration?
A former employee who still has access is a risk. That is what we build around: employees from a single source, leave that planners can see, and HR figures without exporting anything.
No duplicate entry
An employee is created once.
Rotas that add up
Approved leave appears in the rota straight away.
Safe when someone leaves
A leaver in Buddee triggers the withdrawal of access.
Security and privacy in a Buddee integration
The integration processes employee data, including absence records, which are sensitive personal data. Only what the other systems need is passed on, such as "absent" without a reason. Access credentials are stored encrypted, and every message is logged.
The integration runs in a European data centre, with encrypted storage, daily back-ups and a log of every message.
Frequently asked questions about a Buddee integration
Questions businesses ask before getting started.
Buddee is HR and payroll software for SMEs, covering personnel records, leave and absence, performance reviews, time registration and payroll. It has an API and ready-made integrations with many other packages.
Yes, including with payroll software, accounting packages, rostering and recruitment software, and calendars. Those are often enough. A custom integration is needed for your own planning tool, app, time registration, IT administration or dashboard that isn't on the list.
Yes. Approved leave appears in your planning or rota, so the planner takes it into account. A change or cancellation follows the same route, so planning and Buddee stay in sync. That way, nobody schedules a shift for someone who is on leave.
Sickness absence is sensitive. Only what other systems need is shared, usually just that someone is absent, without a reason. We discuss what applies to your business before the build begins.
A leaver recorded in Buddee can trigger the withdrawal of accounts and the return of equipment, via your IT administration or a task list. That way, nothing gets forgotten. A joiner can trigger the same steps for accounts, a laptop and access, so a new employee can start on day one.
The integration reports the problem and records what went wrong. The message is retried or set aside for review. An overview shows which messages have been processed, which are waiting and which need attention.
For businesses with their own planning tool, app, time registration or dashboard alongside Buddee, where data is currently entered twice. If you only use packages from the standard list, the standard integration is often enough.
