Cezanne HR with Flexopus: Automatically synchronize absences
Flexopus connects with Cezanne HR and synchronizes absence data directly into your workplace management platform. This allows all employees to see at a glance who is in the office, who is working remotely, and who is away – without any manual updates.
What is the Cezanne HR synchronization?
The Cezanne HR integration is a one-way data interface: absence entries recorded and approved in Cezanne HR are automatically transferred to Flexopus. Flexopus reads the data from Cezanne HR and stores the relevant user absence information.
The following information is synchronized: employee ID, approval ID, start and end date of the absence, status, absence type, and optional notes. Upon request, the synchronization can be configured so that only a general absence status (e.g., "absent") is transferred – without specifying the reason.
What is the purpose of the integration?
The integration creates transparency in daily office life and helps hybrid teams better coordinate their workdays. Typical use cases include:
Making absence status visible: Approved absences from Cezanne HR are automatically displayed in Flexopus. Employees can see their own status directly on the dashboard.
Colleague availability at a glance: In Flexopus, it is always clear who is in the office, who is working remotely, and who is away. This significantly simplifies the planning of collaboration and office visits.
Automatically release bookings during absences (coming soon): Flexopus can automatically cancel existing reservations for absent employees, ensuring that desks and rooms remain available for other colleagues.
How easy is the integration?
Setting up the Cezanne HR integration is straightforward and requires no technical expertise. As an administrator, navigate to the integration settings in Flexopus, select Cezanne HR, and grant the necessary API permissions in your HR system. Flexopus will then automatically begin synchronizing the absence data.
A complete step-by-step guide for setup can be found in our Help Center.
What are the benefits of the integration?
- Automatic synchronization: Absence data is retrieved regularly from Cezanne HR – no manual entry required.
- More team transparency: Everyone can see in real-time who is available – ideal for planning office visits and collaborative workdays.
- Privacy by design: Only necessary absence information is transferred. The reason for the absence can be anonymized if desired.
- Seamless integration into existing HR processes: Cezanne HR remains the leading system for absences. Flexopus simply reads the data and makes it available in the workplace context.
- Fewer errors and less duplication: Since data is transferred automatically, manual entries and associated sources of error are eliminated.
- Over 30 HRIS systems supported: The integration is based on a unified interface that covers many other HR systems in addition to Cezanne HR.

Questions and answers
Are sensitive absence reasons like illness or parental leave transferred to Flexopus?
Not necessarily. Flexopus can be configured to synchronize only a general status (e.g., "absent") instead of the specific reason for absence. This gives you full control over what information is visible in the workplace management system.
Can I change or delete absences directly in Flexopus?
No. The synchronization is one-way: Flexopus reads absence data from Cezanne HR but does not make any changes. All adjustments to absence entries must still be made in Cezanne HR and will then be automatically transferred to Flexopus.
What happens to existing bookings when an employee is marked as absent?
Currently, existing bookings are not yet automatically canceled when an absence is recorded. This feature is under development and will be available in the future. However, the absence status can already be displayed on the Flexopus dashboard, allowing colleagues to keep track of availability.
Is the HRIS integration module included in the standard Flexopus package?
The HRIS integration module is an optional add-on that can be purchased separately. It is generally available to all customers upon request. If you are interested, simply contact your Flexopus representative.
How is data transferred between Cezanne HR and Flexopus?
Flexopus uses a specialized API provider for HRIS integration, which establishes a standardized connection to Cezanne HR and other HR systems. Data transmission is encrypted and occurs automatically on a regular basis.
