Workday Payroll Integrations

Workday Payroll Integrations

Workday payroll integrations handle all payroll-related changes like salary updates, bonuses, and deductions.

There are mainly two main types:

1. GCP Payroll Integrations
2. Custom Payroll Integrations


1. GCP Payroll Integrations
Workday's pre-packaged payroll solutions for specific countries like US, UK, Canada, and France - they're easy to use but can't be customized.

2. Custom Payroll Integrations
Built for your specific needs and uses two core templates PICOF & PECI.


PICOF
(Payroll Interface Common Output File)
Workday's "final snapshot" payroll template - delivers only current values in one consolidated file.

PECI
(Payroll Effective Change Interface)
Workday's "full audit" payroll template - tracks every change with timestamps in separate files.

Key differences between PICOF and PECI:

• PICOF provides only current/final payroll data
• PECI includes complete transaction history
• PICOF generates a single consolidated file
• PECI creates separate files per pay group
• PICOF is optimized for routine payroll cycles
• PECI handles complex adjustments and reversals

Example scenario:

For an employee with:
• 10% raise on Jan 1
• 5% deduction on Jan 15
PICOF shows: Final 5% net increase
PECI shows: Both transactions separately with effective dates
