ATS to ADP Screening and Selection Services Integration: How to Connect Your ATS with ADP SASS

When a candidate advances to the point you choose in your hiring process, their details go to ADP Screening and Selection Services automatically and the background check starts — nobody rekeys a form. Flexspring connects the two systems over an API-to-API connection, so the order status, the result, and the full report come back onto the candidate’s record in your ATS.

The report returns as a PDF, provided your ATS can accept PDFs or you provide an SFTP site to store them. Flexspring is an ADP Marketplace Platinum Partner, builds, hosts, and monitors the connection for you, and does all the data mapping. With Flexspring, you only pay for the use case or use cases you need.

How the integration works

1
Scoping. You pick the use cases you need from the list above. Flexspring maps every field between the two systems, including your custom fields and business rules.
2
Direct connection. Flexspring iPaaS connects the two systems to each other over secure APIs. There are no spreadsheets to export, no files to transfer, and no manual steps in the middle.
3
Near real-time sync. When a record changes — a hire, a promotion, an approved time-off request — the change moves across in near real time rather than waiting for an overnight batch.
4
Monitoring and error handling. The integration is monitored continuously, with error handling, visibility into every transaction, and a named support contact. When either app changes their API, Flexspring updates your integration.
5
Ongoing changes. Your integration is future-proofed for ongoing enhancements without re-implementation, and adapts to custom fields, new locations, new systems and business rules.

Flexspring iPaaS does not store employee data beyond temporary transaction logs, and meets SOC 2, GDPR and ISO 27001 standards.

Frequently asked questions

Does my ATS integrate with ADP Screening and Selection Services?

With data integration, candidate data moves from your ATS into ADP Screening and Selection Services once a candidate advances to the point you choose in your hiring process, the background check starts automatically, and the status, result, and full report come back into your ATS. Flexspring builds the integration to match your custom fields and business rules, then hosts and monitors it.

How do I connect my ATS to ADP SASS?

You decide which information you want to sync, and a data integration expert like Flexspring maps every field between the two systems and builds the connection. Custom integrations by Flexspring include unlimited custom fields and unlimited business rules. There is nothing for your team to install or maintain. The full report returns as a PDF, provided your ATS can accept PDFs or you provide an SFTP site to store them.

What employee information syncs?

With data integration, candidate data syncs from your ATS into ADP Screening and Selection Services at the point you choose in your hiring process. The order status, which tells a recruiter when the check is complete, the order result with its key information, and the full background report travel the other way, back into your ATS. You can also add one-time payments, banking and tax data, expense management, learning management, equity systems, and assessments.

How long does the integration take?

Flexspring builds, hosts, and monitors the connector. The connector is custom-tailored to your ATS, and the full report returns as a PDF provided your ATS can accept PDFs or you provide an SFTP site to store them. Custom integration by Flexspring includes unlimited custom fields and unlimited business rules. Flexspring does all the data mapping, so no internal IT resources are needed.

Is our employee data stored anywhere during the transfer?

Flexspring does not store employee data beyond temporary transaction logs, and does not require anyone to handle the data manually. Flexspring meets SOC 2, GDPR and ISO 27001 standards.

Do we need IT or a developer to set this up?

No internal IT resources are needed to create your data integration. Flexspring’s team builds the integration to your requirements and monitors it afterwards, including handling API changes from either vendor. Your part is deciding which use cases you need and confirming Flexspring’s recommendations for how your fields should map.

Why connect your ATS to ADP Screening and Selection Services?

With data integration, when a candidate advances to the point you choose in your hiring process, their details go to ADP Screening and Selection Services automatically and the background check starts. Recruiters see the status, the result, and the full report on the candidate’s record where they already work.

What’s the best way to connect your ATS to ADP SASS?

The best way to connect your ATS to ADP SASS depends on your data and business requirements. A standard connector can work for simple data flows, while custom fields and unique business rules require a tailored integration. If you go the custom route, you can build the integration yourself or choose a managed integration like Flexspring’s — built and maintained for you, which is typically faster and cheaper.
