Prerequisites

⚠️ This feature may require an upgrade from your current plan.

⚠️  Setup can only be completed using 7shifts and ADP admin credentials.

⚠️ If both of the following conditions describe your setup, start a chat for technical assistance: (1) you have multiple locations (i.e., multiple Company Codes/Brand Codes) within your ADP Run accounts, and (2) these locations are all linked to the same 7shifts account.

Enabling the ADP Run Integration

To enable the integration, you'll need to complete the following using ADP admin and 7shifts admin credentials:

Step 1: In 7shifts
  1. Log in to the web app as an Admin.
  2. In the left navigation bar, head to Apps & Integrations.
  3. Search and select ADP Run.
  4. Click the Copy button to copy your partner ID.
  5. Click Connect to ADP Marketplace to be redirected to ADP's website.

     Connecting multiple accounts? You'll need to create temporary logins for each additional connection.
Step 2: In ADP
  1. Once you're redirected to ADP's website, search and select 7shifts Connector for RUN Powered by ADP.
  2. Click Buy Now. Don't see the Buy Now button? This means you are not using Admin credentials for ADP, they are required to complete this connection.
    Note that ADP charges a $15 monthly fee/per location, and you will only be able to connect to an ADP account that has one Company Code.
  3. Enter the total number of Locations in your 7shifts account that you wish to activate with the ADP Run integration. This will be the maximum number of locations you can connect.
  4. Click Edit:

     
  5. Paste and verify that the Partner ID matches the one you copied earlier from 7shifts > Save details:
  6. Click Next.
  7. Enter your billing details> click Complete Purchase.
  8. You'll receive a confirmation email from ADP about your purchase order.
  9. Click Manage Consent to grant access to your ADP data. Click here to learn more about authorization requests in ADP.
  10. Moving forward you will see the 7shifts Connector application in your ADP Run account (click on your account name at the top right > select My Apps):
Step 3: In 7shifts
  1. Once redirected to 7shifts, select the Location you want to connect. You can only add as many accounts as you've purchased in ADP.
  2. Select Connect to ADP Marketplace to complete the connection > I'm done!
  3. (optional) Click on ADP Run > Settings > Payroll Mapping > choose whether to Split hours by role:
  4. Moving forward, you can manage your ADP Run settings under Apps & Integrations > My Integrations > ADP Run.
  5. With your integration finally activated across your Locations, you will now need to Map your Roles & Employees so that your labor data can sync properly between 7shifts and ADP.

Mapping Employees

Each time you add a new employee to 7shifts or payroll provider, you'll want to ensure that they are properly mapped. This step is required and ensures employees are matched between 7shifts and ADP for payroll processing.

⚠️ If you've recently added a new Employee in ADP, it can take up to 24 hours for them to appear on the Employee Mapping page in 7shifts. If you do not see them in 7shifts initially, please check back in 24 hours.
  1. Log in to the web app as an Admin or Manager/Assistant Manager with permissions.
  2. In the left navigation bar, head to Apps & Integrations > Mapping > Employees. Here, you'll see the users that you have set up within 7shifts vs. the users that exist within ADP. 
  3. Use the dropdown filter to view the mapping status of your employees:
    • Matched: 7shifts will automatically match any Employees that already exist between 7shifts and ADP Run, if they are both spelled the same way with identical capitalization and spacing.
    • Unmatched: Any Employees that cannot be automatically matched.
  4. For unmatched Employees, you can either match up manually or ignore. 
    • Match: Simply find the corresponding employee on the list.
    • Ignore: You'll want to ignore if the employee if you do not need to transfer data into your payroll system.

Mapping Roles

Match roles in 7shifts with ADP department codes to ensure labor data sync correctly. As terminology can vary between systems, remember that your Roles in 7shifts are the same as the department codes you have set up in ADP Run.

⚠️ Mapping 7shifts Roles to Payroll: Although the system allows you to map multiple 7shifts roles to a single payroll role, we strongly recommend maintaining a one-to-one match (one 7shifts role to one payroll role/department code). This ensures the most accurate data transfer. 

If you've recently added a new department in ADP, it can take up to 24 hours for it to appear on the Role Mapping page in 7shifts. If you do not see it in 7shifts initially, please check back in 24 hours. 
  1. Log in to the web app as an Admin or Manager/Assistant Manager with permissions.
  2. In the left navigation bar, head to Apps & Integrations > Mapping > Roles. 

7shifts will automatically map any Roles that already exist between your ADP and 7shifts, if they are both spelled the same way, with identical spacing. You'll find those under the Matched heading.

If 7shifts was not able to auto map the specific Roles, they'll appear in the Unmatched section. You'll need to either create the Role within 7shifts or ADP, or map it to another existing Role.

Preparing your Payroll Data

Before you can send your payroll data to ADP, you'll need to ensure that you've properly approved all punches and closed your timesheet.

⚠️ Only Admins can close all timesheets, a mandatory step to send payroll data to your integration successfully.
  1. Log in to the web app as an Admin or Manager/Assistant Manager with permissions.
  2. In the left navigation bar, head to Time Clocking > select the appropriate Pay Period.

  3. Review and Approve/Edit punches, or choose to Approve All:

  4. Select Close Timesheet in the top right corner. 
  5. Export this timesheet to ADP Run by clicking Export > ADP Run:

     

Including Paid Time Off (PTO):

To include Employees' Paid Time Off and Paid Sick Time hours within the report, an Admin needs to enable these features under your Company Settings.

Click here to learn about enabling Paid Time Off (PTO).

Including Tips

Accounts using a supported POS integration will be able to send their tip data to 7shifts. From there, this information can be included with your time-clocking data when processing payroll.

Please review carefully to see if your POS or tip source is compatible with your payroll provider.
