The challenge: reliable multi-source flows to multiple payroll engines
Each client uses a different HRIS, with its own formats, APIs and synchronization frequencies. Manual re-entry of payroll variables is time-consuming and error-prone. A central tool was needed to collect, format and route data to multiple payroll systems, with full flow traceability.
A three-phase approach: collection, normalization, export
Input connectors to client HRIS systems, data normalization and formatting engine, then output connectors to target payroll software.
1. Multi-HRIS collection
Development of connectors to client HR tools: automated extraction of payroll variables, absences, employee records and administrative data from each HRIS source.
2. Normalization & formatting
Data transformation engine: field mapping between source and target formats, validation rules and consistency checks before export. A single format to feed multiple payroll engines.
3. Export to payroll software
Output connectors to Silae and other supported payroll systems. Each flow is logged to enable audit and recovery in case of anomalies.
Tech stack: robust, traceable integrations
Frontend React, TypeScript, Vite and Tailwind CSS. NestJS backend with PostgreSQL for storage and flow traceability, Redis for processing queues, REST API integrations to HRIS and payroll software. Docker deployment on AWS.
Front end: React, TypeScript, Vite, Tailwind CSS
Back end: NestJS, PostgreSQL, Redis
Infrastructure: Docker, AWS, GitHub
Tools: Figma
Results: automated, reliable flows
- End of manual re-entry: payroll variables flow automatically from HRIS to payroll software.
- One tool for N HRIS → M payroll systems: centralization of connectors and formatting rules.
- Traceable, reproducible flows: every export is logged to facilitate control and audit.
A business integration-focused collaboration
Close collaboration with the Paye Expert teams to understand input and output formats for each connector, and define transformation rules suited to payroll managers' workflows.
Successive iterations on HRIS connectors and payroll exports, with field validation at each step to ensure flow reliability in production.
Fragments Studio helped us build a robust platform that evolves perfectly. Their technical expertise and strategic thinking made all the difference.
