UKG (Ultimate Kronos Group) + Ledge Integration
With the UKG (Ultimate Kronos Group) integration for Ledge, AI agents automatically pull and prepare workforce and payroll data for the month-end close—so payroll accruals, headcount-driven schedules, and reconciliations are ready for review, not rebuilt by hand.
Eliminate payroll and workforce rebuilds during the close
For most accounting teams, this work is manual and resets every month. Payroll reports are exported from UKG, copied into spreadsheets, formulas are rolled forward, and journal entries are manually rebuilt. The logic lives in fragile Excel files and tribal knowledge, creating risk and slowing the close.
With Ledge’s AI powered platform, finance owned and controlled agents take care of the most painful parts of this process. UKG becomes a first-class data source inside the close, and AI agents prepare payroll-related work consistently every period.
What makes UKG + Ledge different
UKG holds detailed employee, scheduling, and payroll information, but that data is not close-ready on its own. With UKG connected to Ledge, AI agents pull the exact data required for each accounting task—such as accrued payroll, PTO balances, and headcount attributes—and rebuild the supporting schedules automatically in your existing formats.
Payroll data changes constantly. New hires, terminations, pay period cutoffs, bonuses, and PTO usage all create period-over-period movement that must be explained and reconciled. With Ledge, AI agents rerun the same logic every close with fresh UKG data, so accruals, rollforwards, and flux explanations stay aligned with what actually changed.
How the UKG + Ledge integration works
Securely connect UKG to Ledge using a native, lightweight integration. Setup is fast and flexible enough to support multiple entities, payroll groups, and regions.
Use Ledge’s Agent Studio to configure how task-focused AI agents work with UKG data. Describe payroll accrual logic, PTO calculations, or headcount-based allocations in plain language and create a custom, finance controlled agent in minutes—no code or IT support required.
Each period, agents automatically pull fresh UKG data, rebuild Excel workpapers with live formulas, and prepare accruals and supporting schedules. Your team reviews and approves instead of rebuilding.
Payroll and workforce close work, prepared automatically
Prepared work, not manual rebuilds
Payroll accruals, PTO schedules, benefits rollforwards, and headcount analyses are built before review begins.
Excel-native outputs
AI agents, built and controlled by finance, generate fully editable Excel workbooks with live formulas, rollforwards, and clear source traceability back to UKG data.
Review instead of preparation
Accountants focus on judgment, exceptions, and approval rather than exporting reports and stitching spreadsheets.
Consistent, auditable cash close
Source data, assumptions, calculations, approvals, and changes are captured as part of the close—not reconstructed later.
Full visibility inside the close
UKG-driven tasks are tracked alongside the rest of the close, with clear ownership, status, and dependencies.
FAQ
UKG is treated as a workforce and payroll data source that feeds agent-driven close workflows. It is not a standalone payroll or reconciliation tool.
No. Ledge works alongside your ERP and payroll systems. UKG data is used to prepare close work, while posting follows your existing ERP approval process.
Yes. Ledge is Excel-native. AI agents generate and maintain Excel workpapers that 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 AI-driven close management platform where AI agents don’t just track progress—they execute close work under your finance team’s direction.
Each close task can have its own agent that pulls data from your ERP, banks, HRIS platforms like UKG, payroll providers, 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.
