ADP + Ledge Integration
With the ADP + Ledge integration, payroll data is automatically pulled and prepared for the month-end close using AI agents—so payroll accruals, liabilities, and reconciliations are ready for review, not rebuilt manually.
Eliminate manual payroll rebuilds during close
For most accounting teams, this work is manual, error prone, and high-risk. ADP reports are exported, copied into spreadsheets, mapped to accounts and departments, and rolled forward each month.
The same schedules are rebuilt every period, even though the logic rarely changes.
Ledge streamlines this manual work. ADP data becomes an input to the close, and task-specific AI agents, built and controlled by finance, prepare payroll-related work consistently every period.
What makes ADP + Ledge different
ADP payroll reports are designed for payroll operations, not month-end accounting. With ADP connected to Ledge, agents pull the exact payroll data required for close tasks and prepare it directly into your existing Excel workpapers—structured for accruals, rollforwards, and reconciliations.
Payroll timing differences, off-cycle runs, bonuses, and employer tax liabilities all create month-over-month movement that must be reconciled and explained. Ledge’s AI powered close management platform rebuilds payroll schedules every close using fresh ADP data, so accruals and balances reflect what actually changed during the period.
How the ADP + Ledge integration works
Securely connect ADP to Ledge in minutes using a native, lightweight integration with API-based authentication. Setup is fast and flexible enough to support multiple entities and payroll groups.
Use Ledge’s Agent Studio to configure how ADP data supports your close. Describe payroll workflows in plain language—such as wage accrual logic, bonus treatment, or employer tax handling—and create a custom agent in minutes.
Each period, finance owned and controlled AI agents automatically pull fresh ADP data, rebuild Excel workpapers with live formulas, and prepare payroll accruals and supporting schedules. Your team reviews and approves instead of rebuilding.
Payroll-driven close work, prepared automatically
Agent-prepared payroll work
Payroll accruals, employer tax schedules, bonus accruals, and reconciliations are prepared before review begins.
Excel-native outputs
AI agents generate fully editable Excel workpapers with live formulas, rollforwards, and direct traceability to ADP source data.
Review instead of preparation
Accountants focus on judgment, exceptions, and approvals rather than exporting reports and fixing spreadsheets.
Audit-ready by default
Source data, calculations, assumptions, approvals, and changes are captured as part of the close, not reconstructed later.
Full close visibility
ADP-driven tasks are tracked alongside the rest of the close with clear ownership, dependencies, and status.
FAQ
ADP is treated as a payroll data source that feeds close workflows powered by AI agents.
No. Ledge works alongside your ERP and payroll systems. ADP data is used to prepare close work, while posting follows your existing ERP approval process.
Yes. Ledge is Excel-native. AI agents generate Excel workpapers your team can open, edit, and review.
No. Ledge is human-in-the-loop by default. AI agents prepare the work; accountants review and approve before anything posts.
What is Ledge?
Ledge is an agent-driven close management platform where AI agents don’t just track progress, they execute close work under your team’s direction.
Each close task can have its own agent that pulls data from systems like your ERP, banks, HRIS platforms, payroll providers like ADP, AP tools, CRMs, and billing systems. Agents prepare reconciliations, schedules, flux analysis, and draft journal entries before the task is even opened.
Ledge combines close orchestration, Excel-native workpapers, and human-in-the-loop approvals in a single platform, so the close runs on prepared work, not manual rebuilds.
