Team,

We are looking to move our payroll to Paylocity and looking for anyone who uses Paylocity but are integrated with Epicor. We are looking to have the employee information flow to Epicor from Paylocity and time punches move from Epicor to Paylocity so we can process payroll.

How \ who do we use for integration? Jitterbit, etc and did you do your own work or use consultants to get the 2 systems talking with each other.

Any info, references, warnings would be appreciated

Thanks

Hello Melissa,

I have written developed a customization within Epicor that exports the data in the format required for Paylocity import. It gives the payroll data broken down into the appropriate buckets based indirect codes and hours worked each week. This client entered all vacation/sick/holiday into Epicor using indirect codes so that the file was complete with all hours and pay types.

Let me know if you would like to discuss.

We recently moved from Epicor payroll to Paycor.

 We are using MES for our shop/union labor reporting and Time Entry and indirect codes for PTO, Holiday and other Non-Work Paid Hours.

Our Salary payrolls are running pretty smoothly since all labor is entered via Time Entry (2 decimal places), but our Union payrolls are a bit more challenging because labor via MES is 5-decimal places.  Epicor payroll reconciled any rounding difference between labor and pay hours. Wear using labor hours for our transfer to Paycor because we want Paycor to provide GL data back to us; Direct, Indirect, Non-Work Paid hours are different GL accounts and labor department may also trigger a different GL account.

Like Melissa, we are trying to determine the best way to integrate Paycor and Epicor.  Our salary payrolls could be direct exports from Epicor to Paycor, but our Union payrolls won’t be (overtime and PTO rules require manual oversight and at this time we are doing that via excel workbook).  

We also want Paycor to automatically feed Epicor with employee data (new employees, status changes, etc) and the GL data.

Any suggestions/advice on integration as well as reconciling pay hours to labor hours would be appreciated.
