## Introduction

AFAS Profit is an ERP solution designed to automate core administrative processes within a single platform. It covers financial management, HRM, payroll, document management, and project management, all accessible in a unified system. The software provides clear, real-time insights through reports and dashboards, helping organizations streamline operations efficiently.

For this integration, we specifically use **AFAS Profit**.

## Configure AFAS

### Prerequisites

There is no prerequisite to enable AFAS on your Chift APP.

### Activation process

Activating the connector takes just one click — simply switch it on from the Connectors Page of your platform.

## Test AFAS

We can provide credentials for a test environment. Contact Chift to obtain access and connect to our AFAS PROFIT test environment.

## Connect AFAS

* English article: [Help Center - AFAS EN](https://help.chift.app/articles/1524023590-afas?lang=en)

## Technical limitations

* **Supplier and Customer creation - Address requirement**\
  Clients and suppliers **cannot be created without a valid address**. The address field is mandatory and must be provided at creation time. Attempts to create a record without an address will fail.
