About the DynaFile Paylocity Integration

The DynaFile Paylocity integration connects Paylocity HRIS employee data with DynaFileโ€™s secure HR document management system. This allows organizations to automatically organize employee files, maintain structured digital personnel records, and support compliance with secure access controls and audit trails. This allows organizations using Paylocity to implement secure employee document management without relying on shared drives or manual file storage.

HR Systems Are Digital.
Employee Documents Are Still Disconnected.

Paylocity provides a powerful platform to manage payroll, HR, benefits, and workforce data. But even with a modern HRIS in place, many organizations still struggle with how employee documents are stored, organized, and accessed. Integrating Paylocity with DynaFile eliminates that gap by automatically organizing new hire onboarding paperwork, acknowledgments, and employee records in real time, so HR teams spend less time on file management and more time on strategic work.

The Document Gap Between HRIS Data and Employee Files
Gap

The Document Gap Between HRIS Data and Employee Files

Common challenges include:

  • Employee documents are stored outside the HRIS in shared drives or inboxes
  • Manual downloading and uploading of files tied to HR workflows
  • Inconsistent file naming and folder structures across departments
  • Limited visibility during audits or compliance reviews
  • Increased risk of missing, misfiled, or overexposed records

While Paylocity serves as the system of record for employee data, organizations still need a secure, structured way to manage the documents associated with that data without adding manual work for HR teams.

Seamless Integrations That Connect Your HR Technology

How the Paylocity Integration Works

The integration creates an automated bridge between Paylocity and DynaFile without complex setup or disruption to existing workflows.

Employee Data Automatically Structures DynaFile Folders

1. Employee Data Automatically Structures DynaFile Folders

Employee information from Paylocity automatically populates employee folders in DynaFile. Every document is tied to the correct employee record from day one.

2. Employee Documents Are Automatically Organized

Documents generated through Paylocity workflows are routed directly into standardized employee folders within DynaFile. Files are categorized by employee, document type, or retention requirement, eliminating the need for manual naming and sorting.

Example: When a new hire completes onboarding in Paylocity, W-4 forms, I-9 documents, and direct deposit forms are automatically filed in the employeeโ€™s DynaFile folder.

DynaFile provides role-based access controls and document-level permissions. Employee documents are indexed using consistent metadata, allowing HR teams to quickly locate records, monitor compliance status, and maintain clear audit trails while protecting sensitive employee information.

See How Houchens Insurance Group Automated New Hire Document Filing

Houchens Insurance Group (HIG), an employee-owned insurance organization serving businesses and individuals across all 50 states, was managing new hire onboarding document workflows manually. HR staff manually retrieved completed onboarding paperwork from Paylocity, saved files locally, re-uploaded them into DynaFile, and tracked completion across systems for every new hire, every acknowledgment, every onboarding document update.

After activating the DynaFile + Paylocity integration, that entire process became fully automated. New hire onboarding documents now flow directly from Paylocity into organized, standardized employee folders in DynaFile in real time โ€” without manual retrieval, local saving, or re-uploading.

Results at Houchens Insurance Group:

  • 100% of new hire filing workflows automated from Paylocity to DynaFile
  • 10 minutes or less per new hire for onboarding document filing
  • Hundreds of hours of manual administrative work eliminated annually
