Frequently asked questions

How does partnering with Ceridian for Managed Services impact the timing of payroll?

Upon contract signing, Ceridian will work with you to design a payroll schedule to accommodate both yours and the Managed Services teams' roles and responsibilities. We audit your payroll data daily and perform a final review prior to payroll commit. Generally, for a Friday payday, we would ask that time records be locked and approved on Monday. Changes made to time records after this point are considered retroactive and will be picked up automatically in the next pay period. Dayforce's continuous calculation engine helps insulate your teams from experiencing material changes to the timing of payroll, as changes entered outside of the payroll commit schedule are captured automatically. Reach out to us to learn more about partnering with Ceridian for Managed Payroll.

How do I make the business case for managed payroll services?

Managed payroll services will free up valuable time for your HR and finance employees so they can focus on other high-priority projects. Since payroll is a continuous process, the effects of third-party managed payroll support compounds with time. If you’d like to approximate how much time, money, and resources you could save with managed payroll support, contact our Ceridian team today. With our ROI tool, we can give you targeted estimations to help in your decision.

What should I look for when evaluating payroll outsourcing service vendors?

Payroll outsourcing services should offer a unified system for managing payroll processing tasks. You should also look for a vendor that keeps up with industry standards, changing legislation, and taxation rules. Our payroll experts use Dayforce to customize your payroll strategy, handle your payroll needs, and generate clean reports for your review.

What services or processes are typically included in managed payroll services?

Managed payroll services operate with an umbrella contract that includes smaller tasks and projects. Our certified payroll experts provide procedural standardization, Dayforce-powered payroll processing, scalable pay tracking, and compliance risk mitigation. You can also expect off-cycle processing, garnishment administration, tax filing, and more.
