How to Set Up Automated Paylocity Reports for Team Engine

Team Engine can securely receive automated employee reports directly from your Paylocity account.

This is a reporting-only setup, meaning once it’s configured, no ongoing manual exports or uploads are required. ✅

Setup typically takes about 10–15 minutes.


🧾 What You’ll Need

  • A Paylocity user with access to Reports and Schedules
  • Permission to create or edit custom reports
  • The Team Engine report recipient email: hr.reports@teamengine.io
  • Approximately 10–15 minutes for setup

📌 Report recipients do not need to be Paylocity users.


📊 What’s Included in the Automated Report

The report should include the employee data required to keep Team Engine up to date, such as:

  • Employee Full Name
  • Employee ID
  • Employment Status (Active or Terminated)
  • Hire Date
  • Termination Date (if applicable)
  • Job Title
  • Location and/or Department
  • Email Address and/or Mobile Phone Number

Your Team Engine representative will confirm the exact required fields before finalizing setup.
