ADP

Sync your ADP Workforce Now data with Flowstate to keep employee records, org structure, and salary information in sync automatically.

What syncs

DataDirectionDescription

GeographiesADP → FlowstateWork locations and office assignments
New hires & terminationsADP → FlowstateAutomatically reflects joiners and leavers
Headcount changesFlowstate → ADPApproved scenario changes can be pushed back to ADP

Why connect ADP?

  • No manual data entry — Employee records stay in sync without spreadsheet imports
  • Salary accuracy — Flowstate's cost forecasts use real compensation data, not estimates
  • Org structure is always current — Team hierarchies and reporting lines update automatically
  • New hires appear on day one — No waiting for someone to add them to Flowstate manually
  • Leavers are handled gracefully — Terminations flow through with correct end dates

Getting started

  1. Go to Settings → Data Integrations → ADP
  2. Click Connect with ADP to start the OAuth authorisation
  3. Sign in to your ADP account and grant Flowstate access
  4. Select which data to sync (employees, org structure, salary)
  5. Choose sync frequency (daily recommended)
  6. Click Confirm

Initial sync typically completes within a few minutes for organisations under 1,000 employees.

What happens during sync

  • New employees in ADP are created in Flowstate with their team, role, and salary
  • Updated records (title changes, team moves, salary adjustments) are reflected automatically
  • Terminated employees have their end date set in Flowstate — they remain in historical reports but are marked as inactive
  • Conflicts — if someone manually changes a record in Flowstate that ADP later updates, the ADP data takes precedence (ADP is the source of truth for HR data)

Troubleshooting

Employees aren't syncing

  • Check that the ADP connection is still authorised (tokens can expire)
  • Verify the employee exists in the ADP company you connected

Salary data looks wrong

  • Flowstate stores annual salary equivalent — check that the pay frequency conversion is correct
  • Currency is pulled from the employee's ADP record
