So you’re leaving

Ceridian

Breaking up doesn’t have to be hard to do. Just be aware of these common pitfalls and misconceptions:
Ceridian assistance is limited for historical data or with conversions to a new system typically.

Contracts very often have no stipulation that Ceridian needs to assist or provide you any assistance with historical data.  Your options vary by product but none of those mentioned above have clear exit paths for acquiring your full history.  Therefore, assume you are on your own going into the efforts required.

 

You need to tap into multiple locations to extract data and they are not sufficient to acquire the historical data required for typical labor audits subpoenas alone without a SQL database copy.

To preserve the data required for employment history, payroll , time and benefits you will need to not only piece together reporting from a database but also re-assemble exported files.  You also need to be able to connect and decrypt paystubs, tax forms and a few other assets.

Certain restrictions to pull data and add people resources to assist in extracts may stand in the way of exports.

Extracting data requires access to certain APIs with encryption involved as well as roles that need full admin reporting capability.  Many customers wait until after converting to the new vendor to archive applications which can often be too late.
To work around this you will need to start your archiving at the same time you are implementing a new replacement vendor and make archiving part of the conversion efforts as part of an all-in-one rollover strategy.  It may leave you out of compliance with Federal and state labor audit agencies.

Timeline for contract extensions to hold data may be severely limited and Ceridian may elect to terminate after 60-90 days with no extension as per contracts

We help customers through this transition quickly and effectively through:
Ceridian source system and technology expertise
ETL tools dedicated to secure PII data migration
Easy access in the cloud to all your historical data and documents
Compliant, proven methodology to ensure data acquisition is clean and complete.

Ceridian may archive (based on customer policies) certain data beyond a certain age

In addition to the difficulty of users & access as well as the need to build custom reports, there is a time limit on vendor availability after terminations.  These collective constraints often leave customers unable to terminate with data history fully intact and requires HR and Payroll to rely on paper records and manual efforts in responding to audit inquiries & subpoenas regarding employment, time and payroll history.  It also often leaves you unable to reprint paystubs or tax forms for employees.

It may leave you out of compliance with Federal and state labor audit agencies.
