  • Lifecycle triggers — Hire date, End date, and Birthday flow into Siit as workflow triggers.

  • Manager resolution — Payfit's reporting structure powers auto‑selected approvers in workflows.

  • Pre‑hires — future employees with a hire date in Payfit appear in Siit ahead of Day 1.

Troubleshooting

Employees missing. Only active employees and future hires sync by default. Confirm status and work email in Payfit.

Manager field empty. In Payfit, check the employee has a manager assigned on their profile.

"Invalid credentials" on connect. The credentials were revoked. Regenerate in Payfit and update Siit.
