Elanza
The Elanza Source Connector integrates the Elanza healthcare platform with your target systems through the identity and access management (IAM) solution HelloID from Tools4ever. The integration elevates the management of accounts and authorizations in the target systems your healthcare organization uses. It significantly automates account provisioning, which is especially valuable given the high volume of changes generated by the flexible and temporary staff that many healthcare organizations rely on. With the integration between Elanza and your target systems, this process is handled automatically. This article provides more information about this connector, its capabilities, and the benefits it delivers.
What is Elanza?
Elanza is an intelligent tool for flexible staffing in healthcare, giving organizations control over the deployment of flexible and temporary staff. Central to the platform is an automatic matching tool that helps organizations attract the best available healthcare providers to support their permanent teams. Elanza can automatically distribute shifts across various flexible staffing layers, allowing organizations to set their own preferred order. The platform generates smart insights into all deployments, costs, and quality across all staffing layers, and also provides support for scheduling, communication, and invoicing.
Why is an Elanza Integration Useful?
Managing user accounts and authorizations for flexible and temporary staff is a time-consuming, vulnerable, and error-prone task. These workers often have varied and short-term shifts, which means the accounts and authorizations they need in target systems change frequently. A missing account or authorization prevents a flexible or temporary worker from performing their duties properly or logging their work accurately. Failing to revoke an account or authorization in a timely manner can lead to security and compliance issues. The integration between Elanza and your target systems through HelloID automates account provisioning, reducing manual effort, preventing human errors, and ensuring that all completed work is accurately registered for production standards and revenue purposes.
The Elanza connector is deployed in HelloID as a standalone source connector, enabling the ingestion of flexible and temporary worker data along with their shifts. Elanza can also be used as a supplement to an existing HR source connector. HelloID treats each shift as a contract with its own start and end date.
HelloID for Elanza Helps You With
Efficient account management: Flexible and temporary staff must have the correct accounts to perform their work. High turnover and frequent changes generate a large volume of updates. The integration between Elanza and your target systems enables automated account management: HelloID assigns or revokes authorizations as soon as changes in shifts occur. This ensures that flexible and temporary staff always have the correct permissions in target systems, preventing unauthorized access.
Efficient registration of flexible and temporary staff: The integration enables you to efficiently and accurately register the engagement of flexible and temporary staff without having to record this data in your own HRM system. This keeps information about your own employees and external hires separate and simplifies management.
Audit logs of authorizations: As a healthcare organization, you need to comply with various standards and demonstrate this compliance through audits. The integration between Elanza and your target systems provides a complete audit log of all authorizations granted or revoked, ensuring you are well-prepared for audits.
Error-free authorization management: Working with flexible and temporary staff generates a high volume of updates in your target systems, which increases the risk of human errors, such as failing to revoke authorizations when an engagement ends. The integration between Elanza and your target systems eliminates this risk, ensuring authorizations are always revoked in a timely manner when flexible or temporary staff is no longer engaged.
How HelloID Integrates with Elanza
A source connector is available for Elanza that connects the flexible staffing platform to the various target systems your organization uses. This integration provides HelloID with the source data from Elanza needed to fully automate the provisioning process, eliminating the need for manual account and authorization management in your target systems.
| Change in Elanza | Procedure in target systems |
|---|---|
| New staff member is scheduled | Based on information from Elanza, HelloID automatically creates a user account in connected target systems with the correct group memberships. Depending on the role associated with the new staff member's active or upcoming shifts, the IAM solution automatically creates the required user accounts in your target systems and assigns the correct authorizations. |
| Staff member shifts change | HelloID automatically updates user accounts and assigns or revokes the correct authorizations in connected target systems based on the registered active or upcoming shifts. The HelloID authorization model always governs this process. |
| Staff member is offboarded | The IAM solution automatically deactivates user accounts when no active or upcoming shifts are registered. If no new shifts are registered within a defined period, HelloID can also automatically delete accounts. |
HelloID uses the Elanza REST APIs to read source data and make it available in the HelloID Vault. The IAM solution stores only the data required for account provisioning. The connector uses industry standards such as HTTPS for encrypted communication and OAuth 2.0 for authorization. The connector can be executed through an on-premises agent or directly through the Tools4ever cloud agent.
Connecting Elanza to Target Systems via HelloID
You can connect Elanza to a wide range of target systems through HelloID. The integration reduces manual effort and elevates the management of both users and authorizations by automating updates in your target systems based on information from Elanza. Some common integrations include:
-
Elanza to Active Directory integration: The integration between Elanza and Active Directory eliminates manual management and prevents human errors. Automated synchronization between Elanza and Active Directory ensures that accounts and authorizations are always up to date.
-
Elanza to Entra ID integration: Like the Active Directory integration, the Entra ID integration reduces manual management tasks and minimizes the risk of human errors, while ensuring that accounts and authorizations are always up to date.
-
Elanza to TOPdesk integration: This integration enables fully automated provisioning of person records, allowing flexible and temporary staff to use the IT Service Management processes within the organization.
-
Elanza to Nedap ONS integration: This integration ensures that healthcare workers always have the correct authorizations within the Electronic Client Record, guaranteeing that staff with active shifts can always access the data they need.
More than 200 connectors are available for HelloID, enabling you to connect the Tools4ever IAM solution to a broad range of source and target systems. A complete overview of all available connectors is available here.
