Why is someone added as a duplicate in Eitje?
Why is someone added as a duplicate in Eitje?

Sometimes a team member can accidentally be added twice to Eitje by the integration. Read below how to solve that.

Updated today

If you have an integration with an HR system and you import the team members through a sync into Eitje, it can happen that someone is added to Eitje a second time. This is caused by the fact that this team member's e-mail address in the HR system and in Eitje are not the same.

This can cause problems when exporting hours or updating the contract information, so it is important that this is solved.
