Workday Payroll Partners

A Workday Payroll partner configures Workday's native payroll product for one or more countries, integrates it with tax and benefits providers, and — in some cases — runs payroll processing itself as a managed (BPaaS) service rather than just implementing the software.

No — Workday's native payroll product covers a defined set of countries, and organisations operating elsewhere typically integrate Workday HCM with third-party or local payroll providers instead. A Workday Payroll partner should be able to tell you, country by country, whether native payroll or a third-party integration is the right path.

Payroll configuration is a one-time implementation project — setting up rules, pay groups, and integrations. Managed payroll (BPaaS) is an ongoing service where the partner actually runs your payroll cycles on your behalf. Some firms offer both; others specialise in one or the other.
