Scheduled UKG Reports, Collected Automatically
UKG Pro delivers scheduled BI reports to an SFTP site, or your side pulls them. Either way the person with the FileZilla session retires, replaced by a scheduled sync that never forgets a morning.
The SFTP Endpoint For Your UKG File Feeds
UKG exchanges HR, payroll, and timekeeping files over SFTP: scheduled report deliveries out, import files in, most of it PGP-encrypted. Files.com is the managed endpoint that receives, decrypts, routes, and audits all of it. The manual FileZilla pull retires for good.

How Files.com Fits With UKG
UKG Pro moves data as files: scheduled BI reports delivered to an SFTP site, timekeeping and payroll extracts on a clock, import batches collected from a folder. The delivery is solid. What UKG doesn’t provide is everything around it: the decryption, the routing to each downstream vendor, the alert when a scheduled export silently fails, and the record that proves what moved.
Files.com is the platform around the UKG exchange. Reports land and decrypt as a folder setting, Automations route each feed to the vendor that consumes it, monitoring catches the export that didn’t run, and the audit trail answers every question payroll asks.
The UKG File Flows Teams Run
Report collection, roster decryption, punch hours, and vendor fan-out, all running on Files.com in production.
Roster Files, Decrypted On Arrival
UKG employee rosters commonly arrive PGP-encrypted. The GPG Key Manager holds the key and decrypts in the flow, so roster files are already plaintext before your own applications touch them.
Punch Hours To Payroll, On A Clock
Timekeeping extracts feed payroll on a schedule with an operational deadline behind it. UKG punch-hour delivery runs as an Automation, with the PGP step in the platform instead of on a desktop in the data center.
Benefits And COBRA Feeds Fanned Out
One UKG export becomes deliveries to carriers, COBRA administrators, and record-keepers: each vendor scoped to its own folder and credential, each delivery encrypted under that vendor’s key.
Inbound Files Staged For UKG
Vendor eligibility files and import batches land in Files.com, decrypt, validate, and wait in the pickup folder for UKG’s next scheduled import. The audit log proves what UKG collected and when.
The Export That Didn’t Run
A scheduled UKG report that silently fails looks like a quiet morning until payroll calls. Delivery monitoring knows when each feed is due and alerts when the window closes without it.
What The UKG Exchange Needs From Your Side
Both directions are covered: UKG delivering to you, and your side pulling from UKG.
An SFTP Site For UKG To Deliver To
UKG Pro’s scheduled report delivery points at a host, a directory, and a credential over SSH-2. Files.com gives it a stable endpoint with a static IP under your own domain, and your team hosts nothing.
Or A Scheduled Pull From UKG’s Side
Where the files sit on UKG-hosted SFTP, a Files.com Remote Server connection pulls them on your schedule. Nothing to install, and nothing to change inside the vendor-controlled payroll platform.
PGP Keys Managed In The Platform
UKG file exchange is usually PGP-encrypted, and UKG’s hosted SFTP takes SSH keys only (passwords were deprecated in 2022). Both key types live in Files.com: PGP keys in the GPG Key Manager, SSH keys in the credential store. Rotating either is a settings change, not a desktop ritual.
A Credential Per Feed
Payroll, timekeeping, benefits, and vendor feeds each get their own scoped service user. One feed’s key rotation never touches another, and the audit trail reads per-feed.
