Prerequisites

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

⚠️ 7shifts can only connect to a single ADP Company Code; if multiple codes are needed, consider:
    • Splitting your 7shifts Account so that each Location operates under its own 7shifts Account. This allows you to integrate each 7shifts account with its corresponding ADP Company Code. To do this, please contact our Support team for assistance.
    • Using the ADP Workforce Now export. The data in the export file can be manipulated to adjust and manage multiple company codes.
⚠️ If you're using Tip Pooling and there are tips being paid to employees prior to payroll (for example: cash tips), you will need to request assistance from an ADP payroll advisor.

To do this, head to your ADP WFN platform and submit a formal request, specifying that you require an implementation point-of-contact who can help configure "Autopay" settings for cash tips and charged tips.
⚠️ This feature is not currently available with ADP Canada.

  • Export Wages:  Once enabled, this allows the hours per role to have 7shifts wages associated with them at the time of processing payroll. In other words, the wages assigned to an Employee will be used to fill in ADP's Temporary Rate field.
⚠️ This feature supports Wage-based roles, click here to learn more!

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

⚠️ This is required in order to match your Employees in 7shifts to their counterparts in ADP and process payroll. This will also help ensure that your labor data syncs properly between 7shifts and ADP.
⚠️ Remember that each time you add a new employee to 7shifts or payroll provider, you'll want to ensure that they are properly mapped.

1. After your integration is connected, your Integration Mapping page can be found under Apps & Integrations > Mapping :

2. Under the 'Employees' tab is where you'll see the users that you have set up within 7shifts vs. the users that exist within ADP.

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

Any Employees that cannot be automatically matched will be under the 'Unmapped' or 'Ignored' tab. 

Match any Employees from ADP to their counterpart user profile in 7shifts.

  • Match: Simply find the corresponding employee in the list.
  • Ignore: You'll want to Ignore if the employee will never need to clock in/out (i.e. Salaried employees)
⚠️ 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.

Mapping Roles

⚠️ This is required in order to process payroll and ensure that your labor data syncs properly between 7shifts and ADP.
⚠️ 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 WFN.

1. After your integration is connected, your Integration Mapping page can be found underApps & Integrations > Mapping :

2. Under the 'Roles' tab is where you'll see the Roles that you have set up within 7shifts vs. the department codes that exist within ADP.

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

Any Roles that cannot be automatically matched will be under the 'Unmapped' or 'Ignored' tab.

3. Match any department codes from ADP that are used for punching in, to their 7shifts Role. If the Role is not used, move it to the 'Ignored' section. If you choose to set as 'Ignored,' data will not sync between the integration and 7shifts.

⚠️ It is highly recommended that you map/match only one 7shifts Role to a single department code in ADP (one-to-one pairs).

Example: The Role 'Bartender' in 7shifts could match with the department code 'Bar Keeper' in ADP. 
❗️At this time, we do not support the ability to map more than one ADP department code with the same Role in 7shifts. In this case, it is best to add additional Roles within 7shifts so that the pairs made while mapping are still a one-to-one ratio.

Example: The Role 'Bartender' in 7shifts could match with the department code 'Bar Keeper' but not also the department code 'Bar Assistant' in ADP.

A new Role for 'Bar Assistant' would need to be created with 7shifts in order to match the one in ADP.
⚠️ 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.

Preparing your Payroll Data

Before you can send your payroll data to ADP Workforce Now, 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. Click the 'Time Clocking' tab, then select the appropriate Pay Period.

2. From there, review and 'Approve' or 'Edit' punches, or choose to 'Approve All.'

3. Once you've approved all punches, you're ready to close the Timesheet and Export your Timesheets to ADP Workforce Now

To close the Timesheet, select 'Close Timesheet' in the top right corner. 

4. After the Timesheet is closed, you can send it to ADP Workforce Now by clicking 'Export' and 'ADP Workforce Now.'

5. Confirm by clicking 'Export.'

❗️If you see the following error message, you have not completed your mapping. Please see the mapping instructions here.


Including Paid Time Off (PTO)

To include Employees' Paid Time Off and Paid Sick Time hours within the report, you will need to enable these features under your Company Settings.

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.

2. On the Validation Tables page head to Payroll > Paydata.

4. Under 'Hours & Earnings Codes' complete the following:

  • Click on 'Add'.
  • In the Type dropdown, select the appropriate Hour/Earnings code.
  • Enter 'T' in the Code field (no accumulators or mapped pay codes are required).
  • Ensure the 'Active' setting is toggled on.
  • Ensure the 'Use default pay statement labels' setting is toggled on.
  • The Short Name field can be anything, such as 'Tips.'
  • Click on 'Done' when you're finished. 

5. Under 'Memo' complete the following:

  • Enter '5' in the Code field.
