How Do I Export Specific Timesheets to ADP WFN?

A new enhancement that makes it easier to share Timesheet data with ADP Workforce Now (WFN)
Export start and end times, along with recorded mileage, directly to ADP WFN

How Do I Configure the Integration Settings?

Go to Company Settings
Scroll to the bottom until you see Integration Settings

This is where you choose how your data is sent to ADP WFN—either manually or automatically.

3. Click the pencil icon to open Update Settings. Here you can customize

Active/Inactive – Indicates if the Integration setting is active or inactive
Group – Choose which users these settings apply to based on a group
Sync Type – Select manual or automatic export
Include Clock Out Time

Disabled → sends both start and end times

Enabled → sends only the start time

Export Mileage Compensation – Sends mileage data
Mileage Pay Code – Required for mileage cost to export correctly

4. After selecting your preferences (for example, Automatic Sync) click Update.

*When running a report, ensure that the user you want to generate data for belongs to the group configured in Integration Settings.

How Does the Automatic Sync Work?

When automatic sync is enabled, every time a user in the selected group clocks out, their start time, end time, and mileage are automatically exported to ADP WFN.
The data will appear under the user’s Individual Timecard in ADP WFN.
The mapped employee must have Time & Attendance enabled in ADP WFN. Otherwise, the export will not go through.

How Do Manual Syncs Work?

If manual sync is selected, the data is not exported immediately. Instead, it will appear with a Pending status.

To review and manage pending exports:

Go to Reports
Open Export Timesheets Report
Filter by user, group, status, integration, or date range

If you want to see all pending data:

Select the integration (ADP WFN)
Select the date range
Choose pending status

From here, you can manually export any entry by clicking Sync → Yes to confirm.

Does ADP WFN support time durations longer than 24 hours?

No, If a timesheet exceeds 24 hours, ADP will display it under the start date of when the timesheet started recording time, and it will show all the recorded hours under that one date.

What happens if I disable the export?

The setting will become inactive, but when the user clocks out it will still show up under Pending in Report.
