About TriNet (HRIS)

This information applies to:
✔  EOR Team Members ✔  Contractors  

The TriNet integration is free for all Oyster customers and enables you to do the following:

  • Sync your tech stack
  • Reduce time spent on repetitive and manual tasks
  • Eliminate the risk of errors or duplicates while inputting employee information

How it works

With the TriNet and Oyster integration, employee record and termination data will be automatically moved for full-time employees and contractors from Oyster to TriNet. Oyster will send data such as name, job title, contact information both when a new person joins, when their information is updated in Oyster, and when they are offboarded.

Once the integration is enabled, TriNet customers will also be able to directly access  their Oyster account via Single Sign On (SSO) without having to log in again.

This data needs to be inputted only once in Oyster (during onboarding) and updated only in Oyster, automatically updating the data in TriNet. When you are hiring a new team member you will:

  1. Complete team member onboarding in Oyster (either full-time employees or contractor)
  2. Oyster pushes the new information to TriNet (you will be able to see a new profile created automatically)
  3. Every time you update a field in Oyster,  the integrations pushes updates to TriNet so your team member is always synced across both platforms
  4. New team members must be created in Oyster first. We will automatically create their profile in TriNet once their status in Oyster changes to Engaged. If you’ve already added a team member to TriNet, please terminate their profile there first.
  5. Termination data will be sent from Oyster to TriNet on the date of the Team Member’s termination.
