Finch allows you to define how pay statement items are processed, categorized, or modified based on custom rules. This enables more customized payroll data management and streamlined operations. You can associate specific labels, track eligibilities, or perform reconciliation depending on your needs.
Identify the metadata attributes that you would like to track for pay statement items (eg. item eligibiity or source code).
Fetch all the unique pay statement items for a given connection from the /pay-statement-item endpoint to identify what the rules can be applied on for the connection.
Identify what the rule should be (eg. for pay statement deduction items that are called “401k”, assign a label called “Pre-Tax EE Deferral”).
Use the other management endpoints (GET, PUT, DEL) to maintain those rules.
Once a rule has been created, Finch applies that rule for all pay statement items for that connection. When the rule conditions are met, metadata attributes will be appended to that pay statement item, which can be retrieved as part of /pay-statement or /pay-statement-item endpoints.Note that pay statement item rules can only be applied to a specific connection. Universal rules are not supported currently.
