Social secretariat connectors (Attentia, Acerta, Update Pro)

Connect Shyfter to your social secretariat to automatically send your performance files without manual entry or copy-paste errors.

Why connect your social secretariat?

Without a connector, exporting performances to your social secretariat is a two-step process: export a file from Shyfter, then import it manually into the payroll software. With a connector, this transmission is automated or greatly simplified.

Shyfter offers native connectors for the most common social secretariats in Belgium.

Attentia

Go to Settings ⚙️ → HR → Attentia.

Configure your Attentia client ID and the connection settings. Once the connector is enabled, the export of your performances can be transmitted directly in the Attentia-compatible format.

Acerta

Go to Settings ⚙️ → HR → Acerta.

Fill in your Acerta connection information. The connector automatically adapts the export format to Acerta's requirements.

Update Pro

The Update Pro connector works the same way. Go to Settings ⚙️ → HR and select your social secretariat from the list of available connectors.

Common configuration

For all connectors, you will generally need to fill in:

  • Your client number at the social secretariat.
  • The company number (VAT or BCE).
  • The performance codes used by your secrétariat (configured in Settings ⚙️ → HR → SocSec codes).

Once configured, test the export over a short period before switching to production.

If your social secretariat does not appear in the list, contact Shyfter support. New connectors are added regularly.
