### What you get

* **Live People directory** — Paylocity employees appear in Siit with role, department, manager, and lifecycle dates.
* **Lifecycle triggers** — Hire date, Rehire date, Termination date, and Birthday flow into Siit as workflow triggers.
* **Manager resolution** — Paylocity's reporting structure powers auto‑selected approvers in workflows.

Work email is the canonical identifier. Compensation and payroll data are not synced into Siit.

### Before you connect

* A Paylocity admin with permission to authorize integrations.
* Work email populated on every active worker in Paylocity.

### Connect Paylocity

2. In Siit, go to **Settings → Integrations**, find **Paylocity** in the HRIS section, and click **Connect**.
3. Enter the credentials, then click **Authorize**.
4. Review the imported people and field mapping, then click **Finish setup**.

### After the connection

* Confirm your **People list** matches Paylocity's active workforce.
* In **Settings → People → Fields**, set Paylocity as the source of truth for HR‑owned fields if you're also connected to an IdP.
* Build a Day‑1 onboarding workflow using the Hire date trigger.

### Sync frequency

Paylocity data refreshes automatically every few hours. Trigger an immediate refresh from **Settings → Integrations → Paylocity → Sync now**.

### Common workflows

**Day‑1 onboarding.** *Trigger: Hire date. Actions: create IdP account, assign apps by department, ship equipment, DM manager.*

**Offboarding on termination.** *Trigger: Termination date. Actions: revoke sessions, remove app access, equipment pickup, notify manager.*

**Rehire welcome‑back.** *Trigger: Rehire date. Actions: restore standard app bundle, DM manager with rehire checklist.*

### Troubleshooting

**Employees missing.** Only active workers and upcoming hires sync by default. Confirm status and work email in Paylocity.

**Manager field empty.** In Paylocity, check the employee has a manager set on their profile.

**"Invalid credentials" on connect.** The credentials were revoked. Regenerate them in Paylocity and update Siit.
