When a hiring manager presses the hire button in Workday, the new employee's information appears in ADP automatically — nobody retypes it. Flexspring connects Workday directly to ADP Workforce Now or ADP Vantage HCM, so new hires, employee changes, terminations and approved time off move across in near real time. 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. There are no files to upload and nothing for your team to maintain. The essential build — standard fields plus up to five custom fields — goes live in 4–6 weeks; a custom build with more fields and your own business logic takes 8–10 weeks. Payroll journal entries flow back from ADP into Workday, and every other use case is built separately. Flexspring is an ADP Marketplace Platinum Partner and a Workday Marketplace Partner, and you buy your Workday connector on the ADP Marketplace.
Everything below flows from Workday to ADP automatically, except payroll journal entries, which flow the other way — from ADP back into Workday, so wage expenses, tax liabilities and benefits reach your general ledger without anyone rekeying them.

Flexspring iPaaS does not store employee data beyond temporary transaction logs, and meets SOC 2, GDPR and ISO 27001 standards.
Workday to ADP Integration Case Study: A global IT solutions company automates its Core HR to payroll workflow with hands-free data integration.
Read the full case studyA lot of people arrive here comparing the two products. If you're deciding which single system to buy, that's a real decision and this guide won't make it for you.
But many teams don't choose. They keep Workday as the HR system of record — where managers hire, update records and approve time off — and ADP for payroll, whether that is ADP Workforce Now or ADP Vantage HCM. That works well, right up until someone has to keep both in sync by hand. That's the problem this integration solves: Workday stays the place people work, and ADP gets clean data on time without anyone retyping it.
