Workstream Paychex Integration streamlines the hiring process so customers can send newly on-boarded employees from Workstream to the Paychex Flex platform as 'In Progress' employees without needing to enter data manually.

Prerequisite

In order to leverage this use case, the customer must enable the following product(s) from each vendor:

  • Workstream Onboarding

  • Paychex Flex platform

Integration details

Super Admins can configure a list of employee-entered fields as well as a list of employer-entered fields to be sent to Paychex.

Super Admins can add other modules in addition to Paychex to an onboarding process. However, the data will only be stored on Workstream and will not be sent to Paychex.

Prior to configuring an onboarding process, please decide which data you would like to capture and store on Workstream to avoid the need to enter data on both Workstream and Paychex.
