How the HigherMe + Paychex Integration Works

The HigherMe + Paychex integration instantly syncs new hire information collected as part of the application and hiring process directly to your Paychex Flex account. Employee details such as personal information, job title, pay rate, direct deposit, federal tax and workplace information are transferred automatically, which eliminates manual data entry and ensures your payroll system is always accurate and up-to-date.

No Manual Data Entry

When a hiring decision made is in HigherMe, the new hire's information—such as name, address, compensation, and tax details—is automatically transferred to Paychex's payroll system. This automation saves your HR and payroll teams significant time that would otherwise be spent on repetitive, manual data entry for each new employee.

Streamlined Onboarding

The time between a candidate accepting a job and their first day is critical. With new hire data automatically populating in the payroll system, the administrative burden of onboarding is significantly reduced. This allows your managers to focus on other important tasks, like training and cultural integration, and gets the new employee ready to start working faster.

Data Accuracy & Compliance

An integration ensures improved data accuracy. Manual data entry is prone to human error, which can lead to costly mistakes like incorrect pay rate. By having the new hire's information flow directly from HigherMe to Paychex, the risk of typos is drastically reduced, and you can be confident that the data used for payroll is both consistent and accurate.
