Overview and capabilities

15Five's HRIS Connector is a software integration that connects a company's HRIS (Human Resources Information System) to 15Five. The purpose of an HRIS connector is to allow employee data to flow from your HRIS provider to 15Five, enabling real-time employee data synchronization and automatic updates. This eliminates the need for manual data entry and reduces the risk of errors that can occur when data is entered multiple times into different systems.

    Note

    Some integrations require additional prerequisites or permissions before authenticating. Please reference integration-specific authentication articles here.

    You can only have one active HRIS integration at a time in 15Five. Before setting up a new HRIS integration (e.g., switching from ADP to Paylocity), the existing integration must be deactivated. To remove an existing integration, please email support@15five.com for assistance.

  5. Review the data that 15Five can access through the integration, then click Continue.
