Integrating with ADP Workforce Now – HigherMe Help Center

HigherMe is excited to announce our new ADP Workforce Now integration, available to all clients in the USA. You can use our ADP integration whether you use our core ATS product or you have Paperless Onboarding – you just need to have an active ADP Workforce Now account. Read on to see how automatic new hire data transfers can save you valuable time and boost your data confidence during the onboarding process.

⚙️ Setting up your integration

Interested in getting started with the ADP integration? First, log into HigherMe and go to Integrations > ADP. You'll see instructions there on how to purchase the ADP integration from ADP Marketplace in another tab.

Once you've completed your purchase, go back to your HigherMe tab and refresh. You'll be able to consent to ADP data access and attach your ADP locations to HigherMe.

Almost there! Now, just reach out to friends@higherme.com so we can set a company preference for you. Once that's set, your ADP integration will be up and running!

✍️ Using the ADP integration

Once set up, this integration works in the background to save you the time and effort of bridging your ATS, HR, and payroll systems. Each time you make a new hire on HigherMe, you'll be able to confirm (or skip) sending that employee's info to ADP Workforce Now in a small pop-up. If you confirm, we'll send that hire's info over to ADP Workforce Now via an API integration.

Want to check if an export was successful? Go to your ADP integration page on HigherMe and look under the Hired Employees tab. If the export was unsuccessful you can try to export again or reach out to friends@higherme.com.

Employees that are sent over to ADP Workforce Now will appear in your HR Dashboard. Their default status when sent over to ADP will be "In progress." If desired, you can go into ADP and review these employees, adding in any missing info and clicking Finalize to change their status on ADP to "Active."
