The Utility of Paycom to Okta Directory Synchronization

Paycom’s HR software is primarily used for managing employee payroll and records, while Okta Directory stores the same data for identity-related authentication and access control. Synchronizing these two can provide the following benefits:

1. Updated User Data: With this synchronization, any changes to data in Paycom HR, such as job title and location, are directly synced with Okta Directory, resulting in improved communication and accurate employee representation in the organizational chart.

2. Increased Employee Productivity: Both HR and IT teams are unburdened from their manual workload of provisioning and de-provisioning users. It also reduces the number of IT help desk tickets, giving these teams the time to focus on more strategic work.

3. Save Costs: Automating the joiner-mover-leaver cycle eradicates orphaned accounts and reduces the cost of unused software licenses.

Challenges of Manually Integrating Paycom with Okta Directory

There’s always the option of going the manual way and making these integrations from scratch. But it’s a more time-consuming and inconsistent method, which won’t exactly let you benefit from this automation.

Instead, look for identity lifecycle management solutions to overcome this problem. Let’s have a deeper look at the reasons not to go for the manual approach:

Set Process: Different IT administrators might have varied ways of storing and processing the employee data, leading to inconsistencies and errors whenever there is a change of IT personnel in your company.

Scalability: Custom-built integrations involve code code-heavy development process and a complex web connectors system, which might work for a lower employee count but isn’t viable once your company starts growing.

Employee Performance: Going for access approvals to IT now and then for smaller issues, and the wait time adds to employee dissatisfaction and frustration. This also results in delays in the process.
