How Files.com Fits With Paylocity

Paylocity payroll and HR runs on file feeds. Payroll exports, general-ledger files, benefits and 401(k) enrollment, and new-hire and termination feeds move to or from an SFTP destination — between Paylocity, your systems, and the carriers and downstream vendors that consume the data.

Files.com is that SFTP destination, run as a service. Paylocity delivers to your Files.com site; an Automation decrypts the file, checks it, renames and routes it to the right vendor folder, and hands it off — or collects inbound files and stages them for Paylocity to retrieve. Every transfer is logged, every vendor is scoped to its own folder, and PGP encryption is handled in place with your keys.

What You Would Use

Managed SFTP For Paylocity

Give Paylocity a stable, monitored SFTP endpoint with a static IP your team can allowlist — no server to patch and no box of your own exposed to the internet.

See File Transfer

PGP Encrypt And Decrypt

Paylocity payroll and benefits files are usually PGP-encrypted. Files.com decrypts inbound files and encrypts outbound ones in the flow, with keys you control.

See PGP Encryption

Route Each Feed Automatically

An Automation renames, splits, and routes each payroll, GL, or benefits feed to the right vendor folder on a schedule, and retries on failure instead of paging someone.

See Automations

Scope Every Vendor

Each benefits carrier, retirement provider, or downstream system gets its own folder, its own credentials, and its own permissions — with a full record of every file they sent or received.
