Oracle HCM to ADP Integration: How to Connect Oracle HCM with ADP

When a hiring manager presses the hire button in Oracle HCM, the new employee’s information appears in ADP automatically — nobody retypes it. Flexspring connects Oracle HCM directly to ADP, so new hires and employee updates move into payroll along with tax details, benefits and allowances, approved paid time off, direct deposit details, time and attendance, foundational data and interdepartmental transfers — and ADP payroll journal entries flow back into Oracle HCM. Your team gets fewer payroll corrections, faster onboarding, and an end to double-data entry between HR and payroll.

Flexspring builds, hosts, and monitors the connection for you, and is a leading seller of data connectors for ADP. An essential-fields build — standard fields plus up to five custom fields — goes live in 4–6 weeks, and a custom build with more custom fields and business logic in 8–10 weeks. You buy your Oracle HCM connector on the ADP Marketplace. 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.
