• The challenge of manual integration
  • How ADManager Plus provides a smoother Paycor - Active Directory integration

For IT teams, managing employee access is more than just creating accounts; it’s about ensuring the right people have the right access at the right time. When a new hire joins, their accounts and permissions need to be set up quickly. When someone leaves, their access must be revoked immediately to prevent security risks. Handling this manually is not only time-consuming, but also prone to errors that can lead to security and compliance issues.

Active Directory (AD) is the foundation of identity management for most organizations, while Paycor is widely used for HR operations. But when these systems don’t communicate, IT is left dealing with redundant tasks, outdated records, and potential security gaps. The solution? A seamless integration that not only automates user provisioning but also enhances overall identity governance.

The challenge of manual integration

Manually syncing Paycor and AD means constant updates, ensuring HR records match user access, and dealing with the risk of oversight. Here’s where things can go wrong:

  • Delayed access provisioning: New hires waiting days for accounts means lost productivity.
  • Security risks: Orphaned accounts remain active if deprovisioning is delayed or missed.
  • Compliance headaches: Auditing who has access to what becomes a complex, error-prone task.
  • Operational inefficiencies: IT teams waste time on redundant tasks instead of focusing on strategic initiatives.

How ADManager Plus provides a smoother Paycor - Active Directory integration

ManageEngine ADManager Plus isn’t just about connecting Paycor to AD—it’s a complete identity governance and administration solution. It ensures that user management is seamless, secure, and compliant across the entire life cycle.

2. Stronger security and compliance

  • Avoid orphaned accounts that could be exploited.
  • Enforce access controls and policies consistently across your organization.
  • Generate compliance reports with ease, meeting standards like the GDPR, HIPAA, and SOX.

3. Intelligent workflow automation

  • Implement role-based access provisioning to ensure employees only have what they need.
  • Automate approval workflows to eliminate bottlenecks in IT processes.
  • Delegate tasks securely to HR teams without giving them direct access to AD.

4. Seamless integration beyond Paycor
