DATEV New joiner process

Modified on Fri, 12 Jul at 2:34 PM

When an employee is added to Kenjo, you can import the data directly into DATEV as part of the monthly payroll process. This will reduce the time taken to onboard your new team members and eliminate manual double entry of data in both Kenjo and DATEV.



Note: Kenjo is the source of truth. Information is synced from Kenjo to DATEV not the other way around.



1. Add the employee to Kenjo




2. Activate the DATEV integration and assign a unique personal DATEV number (PNR).


Note: It is advisable to reach an agreement with your accountant regarding the PNR numbers that should be utilized for the new joiners.




3. Populate the employee profile by filling in the given fields as in the following example including the DATEV section (both the employee and HR team).





4. After finishing the filling out process you have to run the monthly payroll and send the payroll file to DATEV.




5. The accountant can then import the payroll file from the DATEV data center into DATEV LODAS/ LuG. The new employee will be automatically added to DATEV.




Data that can be added automatically to DATEV
