Flexspring Named HR Data Integration Experts of the Year

Taleo Enterprise Edition to ADP Integration: How to Connect Them

When a hiring manager presses the hired button in Taleo Enterprise Edition, the new employee’s information appears in ADP automatically — nobody retypes it. Flexspring connects Taleo Enterprise Edition to ADP solutions including ADP Workforce Now, ADP Workforce Now Next Generation, ADP Lyric HCM, ADP Enterprise HR, and ADP Vantage HCM, with new hire data arriving in near real time with what payroll needs.

Data comes back the other way as well. As soon as current employee data changes in ADP, Taleo Enterprise Edition is updated in near real time, so recruiters and HR work from the same record. If your business keeps person or worker custom fields in ADP beyond the standard set, an additional fields add-on populates them from Taleo Enterprise Edition.

Flexspring builds, hosts, and monitors the connection for you and does all the data mapping. You buy your Taleo Enterprise Edition connector on the ADP Marketplace. A custom integration goes live in 6-8 weeks and a turnkey integration in 4 weeks. 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.
