Here, we outline the Dimona process on Strobbo.

Activating Dimona

If you want to use the Strobbo Dimona option, it will need to be activated in your environment. You cannot do this yourself, it must be completed by a consultant.


If you don’t have a “Dimona” option under “Planning/Schedule”, then Dimonas haven’t been activated in your environment.

After activating Dimonas, there’s also a difference between the test phase and the actual use-phase. You’ll notice this when you open a Dimona in your Strobbo environment.
If you see some text in orange, this means you’re still in the test phase. This is not yet officially linked with the RSZ (Rijksdienst voor Sociale Zekerheid/Social Security Service). If you still have questions about this, feel free to get in touch with your consultant.

If you want to know how to link Strobbo with the RSZ, please read this guide.

Settings in the profile

Strobbo only creates Dimonas if this is set up in the user’s profile.

Find out how you can set this up with this guide.


Strobbo needs both a correct Dimona type and a correct national identification number (Rijksregisternummer). If you have an employee with a foreign national identification/social security number, follow these instructions.

If the settings are not correct, no Dimonas will be created for the relevant user.

The planning

If the above items have been input correctly, a Dimona will be created automatically when the user is planned in and the planning is sent.


The Dimona is created based on:

  • The settings in the profile.
    We take the Dimona type that you have allocated the user.

  • The planning.
    The duration of the Dimona is determined based on the duration of the shift in the schedule.

You can find the created Dimonas in the “Planning” menu under “Dimona”.

Here you can send the Dimonas manually. You can find out more about this in these instructions.

Link with the clock

Strobbo can automatically edit the Dimona records using the clock data.

For example: if a Dimona (hours declaration) is created for Jan with an end time of 19:00 and Jan only clocks out at 21:00, Strobbo can automatically update the Dimona record and send it to Dimona if required.

The same principle applies for employees who check in earlier than scheduled, to ensure everything is correct for an audit.

You can recognise a Dimona which has been updated using the clock by orange triangle at the back.

Please note: this automation feature needs to be set up by one of our consultants.
