This section covers setting up the ADP (Legacy) app, which allows you to sync your employee roster to ChartHop. 

This app is considered legacy. For the best experience, we recommend our newer 

Your ChartHop payroll app syncs your employee data from your payroll system and builds your org chart in ChartHop. Once your Org Chart is created, you can start using ChartHop.

ChartHop recommends reviewing the data in your payroll system to ensure it is what you expect before you sync it to ChartHop. For example, if an employee has multiple system IDs in your payroll system, that employee’s data won’t sync properly. You should also be sure that your payroll system reflects an accurate view of your organization, including reporting structures, employee locations, and compensation. 

For ChartHop to access your organization's ADP payroll data, you need to obtain an API client ID and secret from your ADP representative. This information allows ChartHop to connect to ADP to receive your employee data.

You can obtain an API key by emailing your ADP representative. When you do so, include 

 so that a ChartHop representative can help you. 

After you have your ADP API key, you can install the ADP integration app in ChartHop.

You'll be prompted to configure your payroll app when you select to install.

Data sync settings control how and what data is synced to ChartHop from your payroll system. For example, you can choose whether or not to create a backfill position in ChartHop when you have a departure in your payroll system. Other advanced settings allow you to exclude certain employees.

Advanced settings allow you to better control how your payroll data syncs to ChartHop.

ChartHop recommends accepting the default values for these settings. 

Please get in touch with ChartHop Support or your Customer Success Manager for assistance if needed.

Run an initial one-time sync of your payroll data

When you first configure your payroll app, you should run a one-time sync to verify that the sync is operating as you expect it to and that your data is what you expect.

After running your first sync, you can use the Data Sheet and Org Chart pages to spot-check your data. You can use the Sync History page to verify when the sync was run and if it encountered any issues. 

You should spot-check your ChartHop org for the following:

Configure your payroll app sync to run daily

After you’ve synced your data for the first time and verified your Org Chart, you should configure a daily sync. The value of syncing your payroll data to ChartHop is that it ensures that your employee data is always up to date.

Setting	Description
Missing location information	Select one of the two options for what should happen if location information is set for an open role: Set Remote as the default location in ChartHop - When selected, any open role that does not have a location set will be set to have a Remote location in ChartHop. Leave location blank in ChartHop - When selected, any open role that does not have a location set in your payroll app will not have a location set in ChartHop.
Advanced sync options	Select the data changes you want to include in your sync. You can include some or all of the following employee data: Job titles Managers Groups Compensation Hire dates
Overwrite person fields	ChartHop recommends using this setting to avoid needing to update both ChartHop and your payroll system when a change is made to any field value that is synced from your payroll system. When you choose this option, your payroll system remains the source of truth for the following fields in ChartHop: birthdate, gender, home address, and so on. Any edits you or an employee make to this data in ChartHop are overwritten during synchronization. This can pose an issue when someone uses ChartHop to update employee fields in ChartHop, without requesting an update in the source system.
Historical data	Choose whether or not you want to sync historical data. You can turn this off if you want to exclude any historical changes before the date of your initial sync.
Exclude IDs	To exclude specific individuals from the sync, enter their unique payroll system IDs here, separated by commas.
Include ADP companies	Indicate the ADP companies you want to include in your sync. You should set this only if you track multiple companies in your ADP instance.
