BambooHR + NGW
Why BambooHR Customers Add NextGen Workforce
BambooHR is a strong HR system of record. NextGen Workforce helps BambooHR customers manage the daily workforce operations that happen after employee records are created: time tracking, scheduling, PTO visibility, attendance rules, approvals, project/client hours, and payroll-ready exports.
Employee Data Sync
Sync employee data from BambooHR into NextGen Workforce so time tracking, scheduling, attendance, and reporting start with accurate employee records.
BambooHR SSO Login
Allow employees and managers to access NextGen Workforce using BambooHR single sign-on, helping reduce login friction and simplify adoption.
PTO and Time-Off Sync
Bring BambooHR PTO and time-off data into attendance workflows so managers can compare approved leave, schedules, and timesheets before payroll.
Export Hours Back to BambooHR
Export approved hours from NextGen Workforce into BambooHR time tracking, including optional project and client details where configured.
The Missing Layer Between BambooHR and Payroll
Many businesses manage employee records in BambooHR, but still handle attendance, schedules, overtime, time-off visibility, approvals, project hours, and payroll preparation in separate systems.
That creates manual cleanup before payroll.
NextGen Workforce helps connect the operational layer between HR and payroll by turning BambooHR employee data into usable workforce workflows.

Reduce Manual Attendance and Payroll Cleanup
