PSA - Automatic Data Processing (ADP) Connector

About this Guide

This guide explains how to set up integration between ADP and the PSA application. It also lists steps on how to set up payroll batches, export payroll, set up payable batches, and export payables to ADP.

PSA and ADP Integration

Time and expense tracking is a critical component of PSA solutions. A good solution addresses the requirements for tracking time, charges, and expenses on specific projects. This can be accomplished by ADP integration with PSA.

PSA supports file-based integration with ADP (Automatic Data Processing). This type of integration with ADP reduces the manual overhead involved in re-entering all the information in a different system.

The following are the main tasks that must be accomplished to successfully export payroll and payable batches to ADP:

  1. Pay Code Setup
  2. Payroll Batches Setup
  3. Payable Batches Setup

Note: For non-Internet Explorer browsers, the exported file will not be downloaded in the Data Exchange Directory, and it will follow browser default settings.

Pay Code Setup

The following must be performed in setting up pay codes.

  1. From the Icon Bar click Setup .
  2. From the Navigation Menu click Financial to expand the corresponding menu.

    7. Enter a Description if any.
  7. Click Save to apply your changes.
  8. Upon saving, the newly created Pay Code will be listed on the left pane under the chosen Parent.

The mapping of the entries to ADP is as follows:

Pay Code Priority ADP
Regular Time Regular Hours

Double Overtime

To be exported:

As overtime, the Double Overtime Pay Code Priority fields should contain the same pay code as the Overtime Pay Code Priority.
