In this article, we’ll run through how you can seamlessly integrate your Paylocity system to provision and de-provision users on Reward Gateway.
How to enable the Paylocity integration?
To enable the Paylocity integration, log into the Reward Manager portal, go to the Integration tab on the left and search for “Paylocity” under the ”Explore Integrations” tab.
Click on the integration icon which will lead you straight to the Initial Setup.
Step 1: Initial Setup
Select the import frequency and whether you wish to send Welcome communication to newly added members. We recommend ticking the Welcome e-mail option, as this provides easy first-time access to the platform to new users and allows them to set up a password.
Step 2: Authorize the Paylocity Account
Before Reward Gateway can access your Paylocity data, you must authorize Reward Gateway to access your Paylocity account. To do this, click the "Authorize" button.
This will open a modal window where you will need to enter your Client ID and Client Secret.
If you are unsure how to find this information, click on "How do I find my OAuth credentials?"
You will see the confirmation message, click ‘Finish Setup’ and then ‘Save’.
You can revoke access to the integration at any time.
Step 3: Mapping
Before Reward Gateway can sync your Paylocity directory, you need to map the fields which are going to be synced. To do this, use the mapping stage of the setup and use the fields displayed. Once ready, click ‘Save’.
By default, Reward Gateway maps the Employee ID to uniquely identify a member. Any other additional mapping fields can be mapped during this stage, however, the Email Address field must be mapped as it is a mandatory field to create an account with Reward Gateway.
Once you are happy with the mapping, you can proceed to the next step.
Step 4: Review and Publish
At this stage, you can review the details and if you’re happy, publish the connection. This will make the integration live on the platform and Reward Gateway will start syncing the data based on the frequency selected at the Initial step.
How will you monitor when your Paylocity data syncs?
Every time your Paylocity data is synced, Reward Gateway sends an email to the user who set up the integration with details on how many accounts it has impacted.
You also have the option of going to the integration Dashboard and selecting the "Import History" option to see a log of all data syncs that have been performed on your platform.
If there were any issues with your data sync, you’ll be able to download a file containing all of the errors.
How will your employees get onboarded once your Paylocity data has been synced?
If it's a new employee record that is synced from Paylocity, Reward Gateway will create a new account for this employee based on the information mapped and will send them an invitation to join the program.
If it's an existing employee whose data has already been synced, Reward Gateway will not issue any communication and will update their information to match their Paylocity information.
How will the employee data be removed once an employee is removed from your Paylocity directory?
Reward Gateway syncs your full directory every time. This means that if there is an employee missing from your Paylocity directory but has an account on Reward Gateway, they'll be marked as an account to be removed.
The employee's account will then follow Reward Gateway's standard account close-down procedures.
How can you trigger your membership provisioning imports on demand?
You have the option to trigger the import on-demand from 'Import data now' link in the tools dropdown. This will redirect you to the import page where you can start the process. Once started, a progress bar will be presented and when the upload is completed, you will be able to download any warnings and see the impact on your programme.
