Managing employee data can be a tedious and time-consuming process, especially for growing companies with a large workforce. Inaccurate or incomplete employee data can cause significant problems, including payroll errors, compliance issues, and productivity losses. Our system provides several options for streamlining the employee onboarding process, allowing you to easily manage your workforce and keep your system up-to-date.


Adding Employees

Payroll Plans: Employee Onboarding

Our employee onboarding process is the most straightforward and commonly used method for adding employees to your system. It guides you through the process of adding a new employee step-by-step and ensures that all necessary information is entered accurately. Additionally, our system allows for employee self-onboarding, where new hires can complete the onboarding process themselves, saving time and reducing

errors. Our employee onboarding article provides more information on this process.

Time & Attendance Plans: Adding Employees

If you are on the Time and Attendance plan, you can individually add employees to your Fingercheck system by following this.

If you would like to import several employees simultaneously, see How to Import Employees into Fingercheck.


Importing Multiple Employees

Importing employee data from a spreadsheet is the recommended method for adding a large number of employees. This method saves time and minimizes errors by allowing you to upload all employee data at once. Our article on inviting multiple employees provides a comprehensive guide to this process.


Custom API Integration

For those who frequently add new employees, creating a custom API integration can be a beneficial third option. This integration streamlines the process and allows for seamless and automated data transfer between your system and other applications. Our API documentation provides a comprehensive guide to creating custom integrations.

Please note that this option is not available for the "Small Business Starter" plan.
