General information
This document contains important information for the Youforce portal (File Transfer) August release on Tuesday, July 30, 2019.
New
New IBU client version 3.9.6 available
Why
We have released a new version of IBU client to improve security. We strongly recommend updating IBU to this latest version. After the 30th of August old IBU versions won't work properly.
How
In previous versions of IBU, the encrypted password is stored in the IBU.ini file.
To improve security, we have removed the password from the IBU.ini file and stored it in Windows Credentials Manager.
This new version 3.9.6 of IBU client will be available on July 31. This software supports the exchange of files between Youforce Send & Receive application and your local environment. You can download the new IBU version via the News page on Youforce Portal (see News or Publications | Youforce). Even if you are already working with the previous version of IBU, we urge you to replace it with version 3.9.6 on all your 'IBU'-devices. Most incidents regarding incorrectly exchanged files are caused by the use of previous IBU versions. See also the IBU manual available in Youforce | Publications | Youforce (News item: Send & Receive - New IBU version and manual).
Your action
Note: We urge you to upgrade IBU to this latest version. After August 30 old IBU versions won't work properly.
Changed and Improved
Modifications to IBU Server components
Why
We have made several improvements to improve the stability of IBU (Send and Receive)
How
Several IBU Server components will be updated. IBU Server will not be available on July 30th, from 18:00 to 0:00 (CET) during required maintenance to install the updates. File exchange in Send & Receive and the IBU client executable in standalone mode cannot be used during the maintenance interval either. If you have planned critical file exchanges during this period, we advise you to reschedule these activities. Please contact your administrator.
Impact for IBU Standalone
If your organization uses a scheduler to automatically upload files to or download files from the Youforce server using IBU client in standalone mode, you should pay special attention to the following.
File exchange with IBU standalone will not work during the maintenance interval.
IBU standalone will start processing files left on the client or server after the maintenance has ended, on the first automatically scheduled start afterward.
If IBU standalone tries to connect to IBU server during the maintenance interval, error messages will be generated and logged. Depending on your local configuration, e-mails may also be sent to your organization's administrator. Such error messages are normal and can be ignored.
If IBU server goes down in the middle of processing a file exchange, the transfer may fail. In this case, an appropriate error message will also be logged. In some cases, it might be necessary to send or receive the corresponding file manually afterward. If the requested file has disappeared from the server list, you may contact the Raet Service Desk to have it restored.
If your organization would rather prevent the above-mentioned errors, you are advised to switch off your local scheduler for IBU standalone during the maintenance interval. Your IT professional can take care of this, or you may contact your Raet consultant.
Solved Changes
YF - Ibu standalone doesn't accept passwords longer than 14 characters: (change #4438685)
Message
Password policy IBU client/ standalone (filetransfer.youforce.biz) differs from password policy for Youforce user login1.youforce.biz.
In Youforce it is possible to use passwords longer than 14 characters. However, such a password cannot be used with IBU Stand Alone. IBU only accepts a maximum of 14 characters.
Solution
The new version of IBU now accepts passwords longer than 14 characters.
Your action
Install IBU Client 3.9.6. as soon as possible.

Policy management heet nu Autorisatiebeheer
Rechten voor steeds meer applicaties van Youforce, zoals de Youforce app & Youforce Reporting, worden toegekend in Policy Management De Engelse naam Policy Management is onduidelijk. Daarom hebben we de naam aangepast naar Autorisatiebeheer. Overal, zoals in de naam van de tegel en in Toegangsbeheer is deze nieuwe Nederlandse naam nu zichtbaar. We passen de naam ook aan in de volgende versie van de handleiding.
17 augustus 2022
Policy management - nieuwe gebruikerssectie.
Het hoofdscherm van Policy Management hebben wij uitgebreid met de sectie Gebruikers.
In dit scherm, kan je zoeken naar alle gebruikers, gebaseerd op Naam of ID
Als je klikt op Bekijk details krijg je de relevantie informatie van de gebruiker te zien.
Dit omvat alle rechten waartoe de gebruiker op dit moment toegang heeft, ongeacht het type beleid (alle rechten die beschikbaar zijn via directe toewijzing, rol, lidmaatschap van organisatie-eenheid, enzovoort)
Youforce Accountbeheer - E-mail wijzigen: melding voor oud en nieuw adres
In Youforce Account Beheer is een functie toegevoegd die al aanwezig was in Individueel gebruikersbeheer. Als nu het e-mailadres van een gebruiker wordt gewijzigd, wordt een bericht met informatie over deze wijziging verzonden naar zowel het oude als het nieuwe e-mailadres, zodat de gebruiker op de hoogte is van de wijziging.
Dit gebeurt alleen voor geverifieerde accounts, aangezien niet geverifieerde accounts een andere mail ontvangen om het Youforce account te activeren. Deze wijziging is nodig om te voldoen aan de AVG-regelgeving.

Gewijzigd en verbeterd
Wijzigingen in de IBU-serveronderdelen
Waarom
We hebben een aantal verbeteringen aangebracht voor meer stabiliteit en betere prestaties van IBU (Zenden en Ontvangen)
Hoe
Verschillende IBU-serveronderdelen worden bijgewerkt. De IBU-server is hierdoor op 7 maart tussen 18:00 en 00:00 uur niet beschikbaar. Tijdens deze periode wordt het vereiste onderhoud voor de installatie van de updates uitgevoerd. Bestandsuitwisseling in Zenden en Ontvangen en de IBU-client die wordt uitgevoerd in de zelfstandige modus kunnen tijdens deze periode ook niet worden gebruikt. U kunt tijdens deze periode beter geen kritieke bestandsuitwisseling doen. Neem contact op met uw beheerder.
Gevolgen voor de standalone modus van de IBU-client
Als uw organisatie gebruikmaakt van een scheduler voor het automatisch uploaden van bestanden naar of het downloaden van bestanden van de Youforce-server via de IBU-client in de zelfstandige modus, moet u rekening houden met het volgende.
Bestandsuitwisseling met de standalone modus van de IBU-client werkt niet tijdens de onderhoudsperiode.
De verwerking van bestanden die nog op de client of de server staan na de onderhoudsperiode wordt gestart tijdens de eerstvolgende automatisch geplande verwerking.
Als de zelfstandige modus van de IBU-client tijdens de onderhoudsperiode verbinding probeert te maken met de IBU-server, worden er foutmeldingen gegenereerd en gelogd. Afhankelijk van de lokale configuratie worden er mogelijk ook e-mailberichten verzonden naar de beheerder van uw organisatie. Dergelijke foutmeldingen zijn normaal en kunnen worden genegeerd.
Wanneer de IBU-server tijdens de verwerking van bestandsuitwisseling uitvalt, mislukt de overdracht mogelijk. In dit geval wordt ook de bijbehorende foutmelding gelogd. In sommige gevallen moet het betreffende bestand naderhand handmatig worden verzonden of ontvangen. Wanneer het aangevraagde bestand uit de serverlijst is verdwenen, moet u contact opnemen met Raet Service Center om het bestand te herstellen.
Als uw organisatie bovenstaande fouten liever wil voorkomen, kunt u de lokale scheduler voor de standalone modus van de IBU-client het best uitschakelen tijdens de onderhoudsperiode. Uw Youforce beheerder kan hiervoor zorgen of u kunt zelf contact opnemen met een Raet-adviseur.
Zenden en ontvangen - Nieuwe IBU-handleiding en IBU-client versie 3.9.4 beschikbaar.
Waarom
We hebben ook een nieuwe versie van de IBU-client uitgebracht om de stabiliteit en prestaties te verbeteren.
Hoe
De nieuwe versie van de IBU-client (3.9.4) is sinds 15 februari beschikbaar. U hebt deze software nodig om bestanden uit te wisselen met de Youforce-applicatie Zenden en ontvangen. U kunt de nieuwe versie downloaden via de nieuwspublicatie op Youforce Portal (zie Nieuws of Publicaties). Ook als u al werkt met een andere versie van de IBU-client, raden we u aan deze te vervangen door versie 3.9.4 op elk apparaat waarop een oudere versie is geïnstalleerd. Versie 3.9.4 is de meest stabiele versie. De meeste rapporten over onjuist uitgewisselde bestanden worden veroorzaakt door het gebruik van een oudere IBU-versie. Bovendien is er een nieuwe IBU-handleiding beschikbaar. Alle vorige handleidingen zijn nu gebundeld in één handleiding. Hierin vindt u alle informatie over de installatie, het gebruik en de configuratie van Zenden en ontvangen. Vanaf deze publicatie zijn alle eerdere edities van de handleiding voor Zenden en ontvangen ongeldig. Er is bovendien een Engelstalige handleiding beschikbaar. U vindt de nieuwe handleiding in Publicaties Youforce | Youforce - Productinformatie | Algemene informatie.

General information
This document contains important information for the 2019-11 release of Youforce Portal. The changes below will be deployed on the 5th of November.
Identity & Access Management
Option to disable login through login.youforce.biz
Why
With the introduction of the new login method, it is necessary to disable the login through login.youforce.biz. This to make sure that all users are using the new login method.
How
To disable the 'old' login, go to Settings | Youforce Management | User settings | Manage user settings.
We have introduced a new setting to the Settings of users with certificates: Disable login via login.youforce.biz for all users in the company.
This will add a new authorization to all users (default is activated): Blok Aanmelden login.
If you want to give users access through login.youforce.biz for a longer period you need to deactivate this authorization.
What will happen
All users logging in through login.youforce.biz after authentication will be presented the following message:
Your company has deactivated the login through this page. Please, access through the new login procedure
The link in this message will redirect to the new login page.
For who
This functionality has been specifically been introduced for companies transferring to the new login using Youforce accounts.
For more information on this topic please go to the basic description.
Or go to the FAQ list with this sort cut.

Modified and improved
Spike arrest for authentication end-points
Why
In order to prevent that the authentication end-point is no longer available for others - due to overloading by one implementation - it will be protected with spike-arrest. This means that more then 100 requests per minute will be respond to a 429 error code.
Action
No action is needed from the developer. This response will be automatic and should not have any impact as the token is valid for 2 hours
Solved Messages
The API sandbox for the HR Core Business Base API was not returning data
Message
The people end-point is not returning data using the API sandbox
Solution
A new version of the sandbox is released. The connection between the gateway and the back-end is restored. All configurations have been checked and automated tests are now in place to prevent this from happening in the future.
Your action
If you were using the sandbox for testing in the past it is now operational again.
Publishing Date : 3/20/2020
New Quota check on authentication end-point Why In order to properly protect the authentication end-point the check on quota was added. When an application now tries to request to many tokens it will be blocked and ensures that all users have a good experience. How The quota check is automatically active. Action There is only action needed if you receive a 429 response in your application. At that point you are reaching the maximum quota and you need to check the amount of authentication requests. A token has a lifetime of two hours so in general only every two hours a token needs to be requested. Publishing Date : 7/28/2020
New
Developer portal documentation on the community
Why
We want to improve the developer experience and improve the way we can update documentation on APIs. This is why we started to move the developer portal to the community. At this time all documentation can be found in the community and everyone with access to this environment can request access to the developer section.
How
Please go to: https://community.raet.com/developers/
Developer portal documentation updated (IAM (users))
Why
Although we are moving the developer portal to the community, we also want the existing developers portal to be up to date. One of the sections missing was the documentation about the users end-point within the IAM domain. This documentation is now added and available in the portal.
How
Please go to: https://developers.raet.com
Improvements
Error response on spike-arrest and quota
Why
When hitting the spike-arrest or quota on the API up until now the response was a generic 500 response. It was unclear for you what was going on. We have improved this and when hitting these limits you will now get a proper 429 error response.
Improved error response on 501 error
Why
The 501 error was not following our standards, we now improved the response body based our standards.
Publishing Date : 2/25/2020
General These release notes are for API developers only. Bug fixes APIs People and Organization API: In a multi page call the tag for the next link was called next Delta. With this release, we prevent the renaming of the tag and it will be next link. Proxies public_yfo-authentication_oauth-provider-jwt-r2: The authentication proxy was containing a bug regarding special characters. In this release, the problem is fixed and the proxy is updated.

Modified and Improved Increase security of settings page in Send and Receive Why Security of settings page in Send and Receive has been increased. Directory names will not accept the following characters anymore: ' " * < > { } ? ^ % How Directory names are validated before storing their values in the system. If any of the invalid characters are filled and the button "save" is clicked, an error message is shown informing the users that the directory name contains invalid characters. Additionally, the changes will not be saved in the system. Your action No action is needed. Publishing Date : 3/30/2020
New
IAM API (users) documentation on the developer portal
Why
We released the IAM API in the previous release. The general documentation was already available on the developer portal. The part that missing was how the users end-point could be used. This new section in the developer portal describes this and allows a developer to find the necessary documentation. In the near future the section IAM API and IAM API(users) will be merged into one section.
How
Please visit https://developers.raet.com, on this page to go to the section API library and here you will find the section IAM API (users).
Improved
Extended time out on HR Core business base API
Why
Using the HR Core business base API we see that the use cases are growing and with it, the size and complexity of the requests are increasing. We now updated the time out to make sure that these calls can be supported and do not result in a time out for the user.
How
Within the service gateway, we control the settings for each API and here we increased the time out to 2 minutes
Your action
There is no action necessary, this time out is automatically updated for all users
Publishing Date : 1/28/2020
This document describes the new functionality and improvements introduced by this release. Some of these changes have been inspired by messages and reports from customers. Where relevant, we have included a number in the section title to refer to the identification of the message (change .....) in question in our system. General information This document contains important additional information for the Youforce Portal release on Tuesday, June 4, 2019. Improved and modified IBU client version 3.9.5 available Why We have released a new version of IBU client to improve stability. Please install this version no later than 31 August 2019. After this date the old IBU versions won't work properly. How This new version 3.9.5 of IBU client will be available on June 5. You need this software to exchange files with the Youforce Send & Receive application. You can download the new version via the news publication on Youforce Portal (see News or Publications | Youforce). Even if you are already working with another version of IBU, we strongly advise you to replace it with version 3.9.5 on all your devices, as this is the most stable version. Most reports about incorrectly exchanged files are caused by the use of older IBU versions.See also the IBU manual available in Youforce | Publications | Youforce (News item: Send & Receive - New IBU version and manual) Your action IMPORTANT: Please install this version no later than 31 August 2019. After this date this old IBU versions won't perform properly. Differentiate the status description when files have status 3 or 12. Why From client version 3.5 on, the IBU client uses a temporary directory for downloading files. While receiving files, the data is written to this temporary directory and the status changes to Verwerkt (Processed). Only when the complete file has been received will it be copied to the final destination directory, after which the temporary file will be deleted. The status ID is then changed internally, but the status description remains the same: Verwerkt. In the Send & Receive Logbook page, both statuses will read Verwerkt. As a result of this, you will not be able to see whether or not files have been placed in the final destination directory. How The first status description has been changed from Verwerkt to Controleer. Note: We have also added a new Disclaimer to the Send & Settings page. If you only see the value Controleer, you are not using the latest version of IBU. We strongly recommend that you replace it with the latest version: 3.9.5. Allowed IBU file masks for sending files updated Why IBU file masks for sending files are used to validate that files that are going to be uploaded have the correct name. The file masks configured in the IBU modules below are too generic. For security reasons, masks need to be more specific. How Allowed file masks for sending files have been updated for the following IBU Modules: IBU Module Module Name Old File Masks New File Masks 65 RPE Online *.* *.csv *.dat *.db *.txt *.xls *.xlsx *.xnf *.xpf 402 Zenden naar Hosted BO4 * *.7z *.csv *.dat *.doc *.docx *.dotx *.frm *.har *.log *.mon *.pdf *.pfx *.prn *.rar *.rtf *.tru *.txt *.xls *.xlsx *.xml *.zip 406 Zenden naar Hosted BO4 RPSA *.* *.csv *.dat *.msg *.pdf *.pfx *.prt *.txt *.xls *.xlsm *.xlsx *.xml *.zip 701 PB&Core * *.csv *.sha512 *.txt *.xml *.xnf *.zip Please see the appendix "Allowed file masks for sending files" in the IBU Manual for additional information. This manual will be published on June 5. Note: Files that are recognized as unusable by the selected application (based on the file mask) are not sent and are not deleted from the source folder. In case none of the files in the source folder satisfies the mask, the below status 102 message will be shown in Send/Receive. If you receive this message, check if the correct files are in the folder. Be aware that no warning will be issued if only part of the files satisfies the file mask. Publishing Date : 6/3/2019
Solved Changes
Medical Leave Management tasks are not properly sorted in My Tasks panel (change #542883)
Message
From 2017 on, tasks from Medical Leave Management are presented to the responsible manager in the Tasks panel on the Youforce Portal Desktop. Per module and task type, the tasks for the manager should be listed in ascending order of deadlines, the earliest date on top. The ordering should be identical to the one used in the Medical Leave Management application itself. However, this is not the case. In the Tasks panel the ordering appears to be random.
Solution
After this release, the tasks from Medical Leave Management will be properly sorted.

Default tabs in the portal menu bar not logical and not desired (change #428942)
Change
When new user accounts are created after an import from HR Core into the Youforce portal, the new users can access the Youforce employee/manager portal. On the desktop of Youforce, they will find tiles for all modules they are authorized to use. In most cases, some of these tiles have preset tabs in the portal menu bar on top. They allow the user to work in several modules in parallel, The individual users can add and rearrange menu bar tabs via the My Settings page, option Menu Bar. Finally, their desktop and menu bar could look like this:
However, the default tabs displayed for new users, have come to be considered as inconvenient. The preset tabs did not correspond to the most often used modules.
Solution
For us, it is difficult to predict which modules are favored. So the preset tabs have been minimized. After the change the only default tabs are:
Home: the new Home landing page for HR Core Beaufort online customers.
Proforma Lite: a modest salary calculator app which is freely available for all customers
Note that the default tabs will only show for users of companies that are authorized for Home or Proforma Lite. Without authorization, the menu bar may be empty initially. Of course, users can still add, arrange and delete tabs. Finally note that the preset tabs on the professional Youforce portal are different from the ones on the manager and employee portal, and they can also be changed by the user independently of each other.

No action needed.

Announcement
Transition to technical protocol TLS 1.2 for IBU.
Why
Visma | Raet stopped supporting TLS 1.0 and TLS 1.1 for all products except for the interfaces (IBU) last 30 November 2019. Through this adaptation Visma | Raet takes a step towards an even safer and more reliable Youforce as of 6 June of 2020. As of that date, Visma | Raet will stop supporting TLS 1.0 and TLS 1.1 for IBU as well.
Transport Layer Security (TLS) is the technical protocol that takes care of an important function in the browser: encryption of data traffic between your computer and our servers. Currently, there are three prevalent TLS protocols: 1.0, 1.1 and 1.2. For now, IBU supports all three versions. The use of TLS 1.2 entails the application of the latest and safest encryption techniques. Visma | Raet will disable the older and less safe protocols (TLS 1.0 and TLS 1.1) for IBU.
How
Some old browsers do not support TLS 1.2. These can no longer be used to connect to Youforce as they do not use the corresponding TLS 1.2 protocol. You will have to use a newer browser. Links to and interfaces with Youforce that connect using TLS 1.0 or TLS 1.1 will also no longer function after the transition to TLS 1.2.
IBU Server will not be available during the maintenance interval on 6 June, from 09:00 to 17:00 (CET). File exchange in Send & Receive and the IBU client executable in standalone mode cannot be used during the maintenance interval either. If you have planned critical file exchanges during this period, we advise you to reschedule these activities. Please contact your administrator.
Your action
Ensure that the links that are managed by yourself support TLS 1.2 prior to the specified date. As of 6 June of 2020, all Visma | Raet IBU interfaces will only support TLS 1.2.
Impact for IBU Standalone
If your organization uses a scheduler to automatically upload files to or download files from the Youforce server using IBU client in standalone mode, you should pay special attention to the following.
File exchange with IBU standalone will not work during the maintenance interval.
IBU standalone will start processing files left on the client or server after the maintenance has ended, on the first automatically scheduled start afterward.
If IBU standalone tries to connect to IBU server during the maintenance interval, error messages will be generated and logged. Depending on your local configuration, e-mails may also be sent to your organization's administrator. Such error messages are normal and can be ignored.
If IBU server goes down in the middle of processing a file exchange, the transfer may fail. In this case, an appropriate error message will also be logged. In some cases, it might be necessary to send or receive the corresponding file manually afterward. If the requested file has disappeared from the server list, you may contact the Raet Service Desk to have it restored.
If your organization would rather prevent the above-mentioned errors, you are advised to switch off your local scheduler for IBU standalone during the maintenance interval. Your IT professional can take care of this, or you may contact your Raet consultant.

Technische verbeteringen in IBU-server
Wijzigingen in de IBU-server
Waarom
De IBU-serveronderdelen zijn bijgewerkt. De IBU-server is hierdoor op 7 februari tussen 18:00 en 00:00 uur (CET) niet beschikbaar. Tijdens deze periode wordt het vereiste onderhoud voor de installatie van de updates uitgevoerd. Bestandsuitwisseling in Zenden en Ontvangen en de IBU-client die wordt uitgevoerd in de zelfstandige modus kunnen tijdens deze periode ook niet worden gebruikt. U kunt tijdens deze periode beter geen kritieke bestandsuitwisseling doen. Neem eventueel contact op met uw beheerder.
Impact IBU standalone
Als uw organisatie gebruik maakt van een scheduler voor het automatisch uploaden van bestanden naar - of het downloaden van bestanden van - de Youforce-server via de IBU-client in de standalone modus, moet u rekening houden met het volgende.
Bestandsuitwisseling met de zelfstandige modus van de IBU-client werkt niet tijdens de onderhoudsperiode.
De verwerking van bestanden die nog op de client of de server staan na de onderhoudsperiode wordt gestart tijdens de eerstvolgende automatische planning.
Als de zelfstandige modus van de IBU-client tijdens de onderhoudsperiode verbinding probeert te maken met de IBU-server, worden er foutmeldingen gegenereerd en gelogd. Afhankelijk van de lokale configuratie worden er mogelijk ook e-mailberichten verzonden naar de beheerder van uw organisatie. Dergelijke foutmeldingen zijn normaal en kunnen worden genegeerd.
Wanneer de IBU-server tijdens de verwerking van bestandsuitwisseling uitvalt, mislukt de overdracht mogelijk. In dit geval wordt ook de bijbehorende foutmelding gelogd. In sommige gevallen moet het betreffende bestand naderhand handmatig worden verzonden of ontvangen. Wanneer het aangevraagde bestand uit de serverlijst is verdwenen, moet u contact opnemen met Raet Service Desk om het bestand te herstellen.
Als uw organisatie bovenstaande fouten liever wil voorkomen, kunt u de lokale planner voor de zelfstandige modus van de IBU-client het best uitschakelen tijdens de onderhoudsperiode. Uw IT-professional kan hiervoor zorgen of u kunt zelf contact opnemen met een Raet-adviseur.
