ERA is not a closed system. It is built to share data — cleanly, reliably and in real time — with the rest of your software ecosystem. HCM platforms, ERP systems, payroll engines, BI tools: ERA can integrate with them all.
Connected through ERA's API or standard file exchange.
Payroll engines
Fed with clean, validated files in your payroll's format.
BI tools
Scheduled and real-time data exchange options.
Microsoft Entra ID
Single sign-on with the credentials your teams already use.
01 — ERA and payroll
ERA and payroll: the right relationship
THE SHORT VERSION
ERA does not replace your payroll system. It feeds it — and is fed by it.
VALIDATED IN ERACLEAN, STRUCTURED FILEYOUR PAYROLL ENGINE
Every calculation — hours, overtime, absences, bonuses, deductions — is validated inside ERA before a clean, structured data file goes to payroll. Fewer corrections. Fewer disputes. Faster monthly closure.

What the connection handles
Employee creation, modification and deletion synced automatically Clocking calculations, absence data and variable pay exported in your payroll's format Sick leave, public holidays and closing data handled within ERA
02 — Architecture
Open integration architecture
APIs and standard file exchange connectors. ERA's integration layer is designed to be extended — whether you need a pre-built connector or a custom data flow built by our team.
Pre-built connectors
For leading HCM and payroll platforms — connected without building from scratch.
API for custom integrations
Build the exact data flow your ecosystem needs on top of ERA.
Standard file export
For simpler payroll setups that run on file exchange.
Scheduled and real-time
Data exchange options for both — pick the cadence each connection needs.
Integration support
Provided by ERA's technical team, from first mapping to go-live.
It scales with you
Integration scales from a simple monthly payroll export to a real-time API connection — depending entirely on what your setup requires.
03 — Identity & access
Microsoft Entra ID (Azure AD)
ERA supports Microsoft Entra ID (formerly Azure Active Directory) for single sign-on and identity management. Your employees log in with the credentials they already use. IT keeps control of access centrally.
