When it comes to fulfilling HRIS needs, integrations can be immensely valuable in streamlining processes and connecting different systems. However, there are instances where integrations alone may not suffice, and it becomes essential to evaluate solution extensions.
Of course, prior to doing so, we like to evaluate all the options available once specific needs have been identified.
Evaluating solution extensions to your UKG Dimensions is important because it can help you identify extensions that can be customized to meet your unique needs and improve the overall efficiency of your workforce management and HCM solutions.
1. Customization: Identify extensions that can be customized to meet your unique needs, allowing you to optimize your workforce management and HCM solutions
2. Efficiency: Streamline your processes and reduce the time and resources required to manage your workforce
3. Compatibility: Ensure that they will seamlessly integrate into your existing workflows
4. Industry-specific functionality: Design industry-specific functionalities that aren't available within your UKG solution nor with a native integration
One example we can look at, is a US based wholesale alcoholic beverages distribution company whose aim was to replace two existing Central WIM interfaces, which relied on stored procedures, SQL queries, and Crystal reports (no longer available in UKG Dimensions). The new interfaces, known as Drivers Pay and Perfect Attendance, revolutionized the bonus calculation process for them, simplifying and automating critical tasks while enhancing overall efficiency.
1. Drivers Pay Interface:
The Drivers Pay interface was developed to calculate payroll bonuses for the drivers. It achieved this by leveraging various rate and calculation date files, along with data extracted from the UKG timesheets and an external Data Warehouse system.
Key Features:
Post-Development Enhancements:
After a successful implementation, the Boomi team further collaborated with the client to incorporate new bonus calculation rules, post-syndication negotiations, into the Drivers Pay interface.
2. Perfect Attendance Interface:
The Perfect Attendance interface was designed to calculate the bonus based on employee timesheet data, attendance, and the previously calculated and stored data from the Drivers Pay process throughout the year.
Key Features:
Overall, this successful integration of Boomi interfaces with UKG Dimensions demonstrates the immense potential of solution extensions in simplifying complex processes and achieving significant efficiency gains. By replacing outdated interfaces and introducing seamless data integration and automated calculations, the company achieved streamlined payroll processing and more accurate bonus calculations. This case study serves as a testament to the power of Boomi's and Dimensions' API and SFTP capabilities in driving success for businesses seeking to optimize their workforce management solutions.
At IN-RGY, we pride ourselves on delivering innovative and customized solutions to our clients. Our recent collaboration with a leading global automotive supplier , exemplifies our commitment to automating critical processes beyond the capabilities of standard solutions like UKG Dimensions. In this case, we streamlined and automated specific payroll functions by developing three powerful interfaces—Custom Holiday Credit, Custom Perfect Attendance, and Custom Overpayment.
1. Custom Holiday Credit Interface:
Objective: The Custom Holiday Credit interface was developed to address the need for an automated process to bank deferred holiday hours. When employees opt to defer their holiday pay, this interface automatically banks 8 hours of leave to be used at a later date, replacing the manual handling of such requests.
Key Features:
2. Custom Perfect Attendance Interface:
Objective: automotive supplier required an automated way to apply perfect attendance bonuses to eligible employees. The Custom Perfect Attendance interface achieves this by identifying qualifying employees and automatically applying the perfect attendance bonus.
Key Features:

3. Custom Overpayment Interface:
Objective: To address previous manual overpayment processes, IN-RGY developed the Custom Overpayment interface. This solution automatically manages overpayments by detecting erroneous pay codes and deducting the excess amount from future pay periods, up to a maximum of 4 hours per pay period (adjustable as needed).
Key Features:
Our partnership with our clients exemplifies our dedication to meeting unique business needs with tailored solutions. By developing these three custom interfaces—Custom Holiday Credit, Custom Perfect Attendance, and Custom Overpayment—we enabled them to streamline their payroll processes, reduce manual interventions, and enhance overall efficiency.
