What this connector does
ADP to Rippling migrations are among the most complex HR platform transitions because ADP implementations often carry years of accumulated payroll configuration: custom earning codes, multi-state tax setups, tiered benefits plans, workers' compensation classifications, and garnishment orders with specific court-mandated calculation rules. Losing any of this data during a platform switch can result in payroll errors, compliance violations, and significant employee frustration.
The ERPPlugs ADP to Rippling migration connector addresses this complexity by extracting the full depth of your ADP configuration, not just surface-level employee records. Every payroll run with period-level earnings and deductions, every tax jurisdiction with filing statuses and withholding allowances, every benefits election with plan tier and dependent details, and every garnishment order with calculation parameters transfers to Rippling through validated field mapping.
The migration supports both ADP Workforce Now and ADP Run as source systems, adapting the extraction process to each platform's data model and API capabilities. The dry-run preview produces a comprehensive comparison that your payroll and HR team reviews before the final cutover. Post-migration, a dollar-level reconciliation report confirms that every payroll total, tax withholding, and benefits deduction matches between ADP and Rippling, giving your team confidence to run the first payroll on Rippling without anxiety.

ADP Workforce Now migrations typically include more granular data such as performance management records and advanced benefits configurations, while ADP Run migrations focus on core payroll and employee data.
ERPPlugs maps every state and local tax jurisdiction from ADP to Rippling, including filing statuses, withholding allowances, and additional withholding amounts.

This ensures Rippling can continue calculating workers' comp premiums correctly from day one. The migration also transfers any existing claims history records that are accessible through ADP's data exports for audit and compliance purposes.
ERPPlugs runs a comprehensive dry-run migration that produces a side-by-side comparison of source ADP data and mapped Rippling data.
