The Ceridian Dayforce to Employee Central Payroll integration is live for all SAP SuccessFactors customers using Employee Central Payroll. This brief article explains the key items a customer and their technical resources should know when activating this pre-packaged integration.
1. Tools Included - As a pre-packaged integration within the BTP Integration Suite, customers can access the following resources and artifacts:
- ABAP Extractor Code Files
- Tax Wage Mapping Tables
- Artifact Deployment Guide
- Configuration Implementation Guide
- Architecture Diagrams
Whether using in-house resources or an external SI to configure this integration, these resources will be made available for use at no charge.
2. The Integration Process (i-Flow) is Already Set Up
The overall pre-built process customers will see is: Define Configuration Variables > Standardize the Input > Convert JSON Input to XML > Apply Formatting > Value Validation: Map SAP Data to Ceridian Dayforce > Validate Against Ceridian Dayforce XSD > Beautify XML > Log Payload > Send SFPT File to Ceridian OR Log Output.
Error Handling Process: Two Methods
- Email Error Handler - generates email to a person or an address.
- External Error Handler - custom error handler called by a direct process (separate i-Flow).
3. Integration Can Be Customized (if needed, not required)
- The integration allows a customer to develop a custom ABAP program to extract payroll data from the customer's payroll instance and apply that data to a data model that is known to that customer's instance. It also allows that data to posted to the pre-determined integration endpoint.
- Customers can configure - if needed - receivers and addresses to call for custom extensions, how to handle the XML file and whether to log the data.
This information is simply a summary and more detailed demos and walkthroughs are available for customers using this integration.
