The Paylocity app available in the Okta Integration Network uses a provisioning connector to connect Paylocity with Okta. Enabling provisioning and assigning Okta users to the Paylocity app will not push users to the application side.

Paylocity’s SCIM Implementation is considered an HR-as-master or Inbound Provisioning. This means that Paylocity is the system of record and does not allow creating, updating, or deleting users from the SSO Provider (for example, Okta) to Paylocity.
Add SCIM provisioning to the Paylocity application
- Add the Paylocity application using the OIN catalog in Okta.
- Click on the Provisioning tab and then click on Configure API Integration.
- A window will open with the Paylocity login page. Please enter the SCIM user credentials set in Paylocity’s SSO Configuration. (These are not the typical credentials employed for logging into Paylocity to access employee information.) This should not be required for scheduled automated imports.
Create a SCIM User in Paylocity:
- In Paylocity, navigate to HR & Payroll > User Access > SSO Configuration.
- Click on SCIM Provisioning.
- Choose Yes under Enable SCIM Provisioning.
- Enter a username
- Usernames must be between 8-20 characters and must not contain any special characters other than _ and.
- Enter the password and confirm the password.
- Click Save.
