What's the recommended extraction window and scheduling frequency for Global Payroll Interface /ADP Global Payroll
We recommend a standard extraction window of three weeks, covering two weeks in the past and one week in the future.
For an extraction performed on system date X, the window will range from X-14 to X+7.
We advise against setting the End Date too far into the future, as it may lead to increased manual interventions for rescinded actions, such as Cancel Hire.
The Start Date is primarily used to retrieve Element and Salary history. Extending it too far into the past may lead to outdated element and salary records, increasing the size of the output file.
-
The start date should be 14 days before the current system date.
-
The end date should be 7 days after the current system date
You should decide the appropriate extraction window and frequency based on these recommendations while also considering the implementation details and the customer’s specific business processes and requirements.
Critical transactions like Global Transfers, are recommended to be recorded within the extraction window. We do not recommend a single day window in certain scenarios. For instance, transactions like Global Transfers can span two days, Day X-1 for termination and Day X for hire. With only a one day window, there’s a risk of missing the hire.
Frequency
It's recommended to run the extract once daily. Most transactions, with a few exceptions like assignments, track updates based on effective dates at a daily level. This ensures that even if multiple changes occur to a row with the same effective date, the system consolidates them into a single version reflecting all modifications. As a result, running the GPI extract once per day will capture all changes made on that day
