About ADP Workforce Now®

The ADP Workforce Now® integration is available 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

Before using the integration, you must first purchase the Oyster data connector available on the ADP® Marketplace. The connector price is U$10 per month or U$100 per year. 

How it works

With the ADP and Oyster integration, employee record and termination data will be automatically moved for full-time employees and contractors from Oyster to ADP. 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, ADP customers with the Integration Admin role will 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 ADP. When you are hiring a new team member you will:

  1. Complete team member onboarding in Oyster (either full-time employees or contractors)
  2. Oyster pushes the new information to ADP (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 ADP 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 ADP once their status in Oyster changes to Engaged. If you’ve already added a team member to ADP, please terminate their profile there first.
  5. Termination data will be sent from Oyster to ADP on the date of the Team Member’s termination.

Additional information

  • To obtain the API credentials from ADP, you need to have an Integration Admin role on ADP. If you do not have that role, please refer to your company administrator.
  • Manager and Department details should be updated on ADP manually as these two fields are not synced via this integration.
