Problem

Henning Have had a payroll system that was slow, full of errors after updates and that would soon be without support.

The payroll process is much faster and easier with fewer problems and more time for other tasks. 

"We had to do something."  

 

This is how Hans Kristian Larsen, Chief Financial Officer at Henning Have, describes the situation when support for their existing payroll system from Lessor and ERP system Microsoft Dynamics NAV stopped.  

 

The Danish construction company, which specializes in delivering a wide range of civil engineering projects within groundworks, sewer systems, concrete and paving works, was far from alone. Many companies were in a similar situation. And since both systems had been on their last legs for some time, it was time to make a decision.  

 

"We experienced a lot of problems with maintenance of the payroll element of Dynamics NAV. It was slow and generated many errors. It was not sustainable in the long run," says the CFO.   

 

LessorLøn was the right choice  

 

Henning Have went in search of new systems to modernize and streamline their processes, including payroll for their approximately 150 employees.  

 

On the recommendation of the construction company's long-time IT partner, Cepheo, Henning Have investigated whether the cloud-based payroll system LessorLøn was the right solution going forward.  

 

"We talked to some companies that were already using LessorLøn, and it didn't take long to agree that it was the right solution for us," says Hans Kristian Larsen.  

 

LessorLøn is a comprehensive cloud payroll solution that automates and streamlines payroll and tax management. It reduces manual data entry and contributes to faster, more reliable payroll processing, as well as automatic reporting to NETS and CPR, the Danish Tax Authority. Thanks to its intuitive design, LessorLøn is easy to use and helps companies manage payroll efficiently and accurately.  

 

"We could see lots of benefits in getting LessorLøn. It needed no customization and was ready to use immediately."   

 

Both systems were implemented by Cepheo and went live in late 2021 and early 2022.  

“It’s simply much faster and easier to run payroll with LessorLøn. It runs smoothly every time. It's a pleasure to work with."

Faster and easier  

 

Henning Have's CFO says that LessorLøn created significant improvements from day one.  

 

"It’s simply much faster and easier to run payroll with LessorLøn. It runs smoothly every time. It's a pleasure to work with," says Hans Kristian Larsen. 

 

He elaborates:  

 

"We no longer notice gaps in terms of updates. There is almost never anything wrong. It's just easy to use and just works."    

 

But there’s still room for improvement, he says.   

 

"Getting printouts can be challenging. There’s also still a bit of manual work as some things are not automatically reported via the ERP system," he says, pointing out that 95 percent of the solution works as it should.    

 

Overall, Henning Have has a more efficient and automated payroll process with LessorLøn. It gives time and opportunity in a busy workday to focus on other value-adding tasks.  

 

"The payroll process has become easier. Which means we have more time for other things." 

 

Positive collaboration over two decades  

 

Henning Have has had Cepheo as IT partner for more than 20 years. Like any relationship, it has had its ups and downs.   

 

"Collaboration with Cepheo has been positive. There have been problems, but we’ve always solved them," he says.  

 

He also highlights the help from Cepheo's payroll team during implementation of LessorLøn.  

 

"We had Karin from the payroll team here for a few days and she was an invaluable help during that period. Everything about the payroll team was positive," says the CFO.   

 

Going forward, Henning Have plans to continue their digital journey. The focus will be on automating employee time tracking. The company doesn't want to take on too much at once, and is therefore pleased that LessorLøn has resulted in a more efficient payroll process.
