What information is synced with your chosen payroll platform | HR Comparison

Integrating Employment Hero with your payroll platform makes Employment Hero your source of truth for information such as company settings, payroll settings, and employee file data. When you connect the two platforms, Employment Hero will import your organisation details, payroll settings, and employee files from your payroll platform automatically.

After this initial connection, the data will only flow automatically from Employment Hero to your payroll platform, as this data connection is not bidirectional. Employment Hero becomes your source of truth, where you and your employees update details as they change, and once saved, those changes will automatically reflect in your payroll platform.

During integration

Employment Hero allows you to connect your payroll platform to Employment Hero with one click; which we refer to as a one-click integration (OCI). When you first integrate your platforms, we will pull the data from the payroll platform into Employment Hero. If there is a conflict during this OCI process, you can then decide whether to use Employment Hero data or your imported payroll data.

Important

You will use the Benefits feature for record-keeping purposes only; the benefits (allowances) set up does not sync through to your payroll platform. However, we will notify your payroll admin when you add a benefit so they receive a prompt to make the necessary updates in your organisations payroll platform.
