For example:
We have the ADP workforce now application in Okta and an ADP chiclet is available for our users. When ADP sends us email, often they include useful links. When our users click on those links they are not signed in to ADP automatically through Okta SSO. This happens with other applications that we have in Okta as well. Is there a way we can fix this?

Is it correct that you're using SAML with your ADP app? View your ADP app as an admin and go to the "Sign On" tab and then click the "View Setup Instructions" button. See the "Supported Features" section. Note that it say only IdP-initiated logins are supported.
IdP-initiated logins are Identity Provider initiated logins. It's when Okta starts the login process, and occurs when you click the icon from the Okta dashboard.
There are also SP-initiated logins, which are when the Service Provider begins the login. This happens when the service provider wants to log you in, so redirects you to Okta to authenticate, which then redirects you back to the service provider. It appears ADP does not support SP-initiated logins, so you would have to talk to them.
Given the above, what's probably happening is a user clicks a link to ADP and I'm guessing they're probably then presented with an ADP login page; and because ADP doesn't support SP-initiated logins, ADP can't redirect you to Okta for authentication.
If ADP did support SP-initiated logins, they would also need to support a Relay State. This allows the original resource (the URL clicked in the email) to be preserved when redirecting between Okta and ADP. I recommend connecting with ADP directly and requesting they support those two features.
Thanks, I will take a look and try reaching out to ADP.
