Guidance · HANFA · 23 Jul 2021
The Croatian Financial Services Supervisory Agency (HANFA) issued this user guide to detail the IDD application’s functionality for registering insurance and reinsurance distributors, managing training records, and synchronizing updated data with official registers. External users access the system via certificates and are granted Level 2, 3, or 4 permissions to input training hours, modify basic personal and corporate data, and assign completed training sessions to distributors. The application automates license extensions based on employment status, expertise thresholds (minimum 15 hours), and proximity to expiry, while sending targeted email alerts to distributors and employers when licenses are approaching expiration.

Training Records
Input of training records
External users with Level 2 and 3 rights must first input training records into the system in the Training menu by clicking the "Add Training" button. Until training records are entered into the system, corresponding training/hours cannot be assigned to individual natural persons.

Figure 6 Deletion of training
External users can modify and delete all training records. Changing the type of training is allowed only within the same group of trainings (for secondary brokers or others). If changing the training type to another group is desired, the training must be deleted and re-entered, with persons who attended the training recorded again.

Assignment of Training Records
Training records, or the number of completed training hours, can be assigned in two ways:
tel: 01 6173 200, fax: 01 4811 507, e-mail: info@hanfa.hr, OIB: 49376181407, MB: 02016419, www.hanfa.hr Assignment of training to person For entry, a distributor is selected by Name and surname, OIB, or Registration number. External users can retrieve only natural persons in Active, Inactive, or On Leave status. The hours record overview by participant displays basic broker data: Name and surname, registration number, day and month of first entry into the HANFA register, OIB, broker category, and current period hours status. The hours record overview by participant shows all trainings the user attended with the following data for each individual training: Educator, Type, Date of conduct, Entry date, Lecturer, whether it is a compensation of hours, and number of training hours.
Figure 13 Assigned trainings - to person
Multiple trainings can be entered for one person.
For assigning training to a person, trainings can be selected exclusively from entered trainings. Educators can view only data on trainings they entered themselves. Trainings are searched by date and name and sorted from newest to oldest by training date. When assigning training to an individual natural person, the corresponding number of completed training hours is immediately assigned to that person.

Automatic Status Change
Automatic status verification and change are performed with a 15-day delay between the actual (technical) expiry of the person's license and the actual change of their status. This delay was introduced due to the educator's obligation, in accordance with the Regulation on Expertise and Suitability of Insurance and Reinsurance Distributors and Registration (NN 16/19 and 9/21), to enter data on the training into the system no later than within 15 days after the training is conducted.
Notifications for External Users
Distributors whose licenses expire in 30 days and/or whose licenses expire on the relevant day because they have not accumulated the minimum number of training hours will receive a warning e-mail. To all employers, whose distributors have licenses expiring in 30 days and/or whose licenses expire on the relevant day because they have not accumulated sufficient training hours, a warning e-mail will be sent, listing all relevant distributors. If the distributor's e-mail address is not entered in the basic data, the e-mail is sent only to the distributor's employer, and if the employer's e-mail address is also not entered, no e-mail is sent.
