How to Integrate Google Workspace with Paycor

Managing user onboarding, offboarding, and other common workflows in Google Workspace can be time-consuming for administrators. They must manually add users to groups, transfer documents, reset passwords, and more. Promevo's new gPanel API — available only in the gPanel Enterprise tier — helps streamline these workflows through automation and third-party integrations.

The gPanel API allows direct integration between the gPanel platform and other operational systems, including Paycor, a leading human capital management (HCM) platform.

Integrating gPanel, Google Workspace, and Paycor delivers significant advantages through synchronized data and workflows. Follow these top tips for planning and implementing a successful integration.

 

Understanding Google Workspace & Paycor Integration

Integrating Google Workspace with Paycor's HCM platform through gPanel Enterprise creates a unified technology ecosystem for managing people operations and collaboration.

Connecting these two systems together unlocks a variety of benefits, including:

  • Centralized access to employee profile data like org structure, contact details, and human resource (HR) records flowing seamlessly from Paycor into Google Workspace.
  • Paycor forms and approvals for PTO requests, expenses, training, and more can be directly integrated into Google Docs workflows using add-ons.
  • Payroll details, compensation changes, and benefits selections become accessible in real-time Google Sheets reports.
  • Smooth and automated onboarding experiences by provisioning new hires with Google accounts as soon as they are added to Paycor.
  • Powerful combined analytics tapping into Google Looker Studio's visualizations integrated with Paycor data for a full view of HR's impact.

Let's look at an example of this integration in action.

Imagine your company is using gPanel Enterprise with a Paycor integration. When a new employee is hired, your HR team creates their payroll account in Paycor. By connecting the Paycor API with the gPanel API the integration autogenerates a Gmail account, reducing the administrative burden on IT for each successive new hire. The Gmail account also has a presaved signature template that the new hire can update on their first day without their manager needing to walk them through the process.

With the gPanel API, administrators can simplify collaborating with other departments on seamless user lifecycle management. This automation frees up time for more strategic initiatives that boost productivity.
