Mercans Joins Workday’s Innovation Partner Program with a New, Architect-Approved Approach to Global Payroll

Workday Innovation Partner

Mercans is now live on Workday Marketplace as a Workday Innovation Partner – with a Design Approved integration, reviewed by Workday’s own architects, that keeps your Workday data on infrastructure Mercans owns end to end, anywhere in the world.

We’ve joined the Workday Innovation Partner Program, and our global payroll integration is now live on Workday Marketplace – built on Workday Global Payroll Connect and Design Approved by Workday’s architecture team. It gives organisations running Workday a single, owned path from their HCM to payroll in every country they operate.

All 5 GPC capabilitiesFull coverage

For most organisations, the hard part of global payroll isn’t sending data out of Workday – it’s what happens after it leaves. We built our integration through Workday’s innovation track to answer exactly that: a connection designed from the ground up for visibility, control, and single-owner accountability across the whole chain, not just the hand-off.

What it coversFull Global Payroll Connect capability, on an API-first design

Our integration spans all five capabilities of Workday Global Payroll Connect, so whatever Workday needs payroll to do, we deliver it – built on a modern, API-first architecture, with file-based transfer supported where a client requires it.

The five Global Payroll Connect capabilities – all covered
  • ExPR – payroll results flow back into Workday for reporting
  • ExPD – payslips and tax documents land in Workday for your people
  • DCoD – changes move in real time, not overnight
  • APD – country-specific inputs captured right inside Workday
  • GPH – one dashboard, every payroll run, everywhere

Why it’s differentBuilt for what happens after the data lands

Sending data is table stakes. We designed our integration around the four things that actually decide whether a payroll run is right – and put them in the client’s hands.

See everything

Every record from Workday is visible the moment it arrives – line by line, downloadable as proof.

Fix it yourself

Validation runs the instant data lands, flagging issues to correct at source in Workday – days before cut-off, not on it.

Retro without fear

Backdated changes recalculate themselves, whatever the effective date. Retro stops being a manual project.

Test like production

Sandbox and test environments connect too, so every Workday release is proven before it touches a real payslip.

Watch the overview

One owned chain – no middlemen, anywhere in the world

When payroll data leaves Workday, the real question is where it goes next. We own our technology, our entities and our in-country teams in every market we serve – so your data travels from Workday, to Mercans, to Mercans.

No subcontractors. No aggregators. No hand-offs. One continuous, owned chain – which means nothing gets lost along the way, and the accountability is always Mercans’.

Workday Innovation Partner Program
Joining Workday’s Innovation Partner Program reflects how we build at Mercans – not bolting payroll onto an HCM, but designing the connection properly, with Workday’s own architects, for the visibility and accountability our clients expect. What makes this integration ours is what sits behind it: we own the technology and the teams in every country, so a client’s Workday data never leaves hands we control. That’s a promise very few can make, and it’s the one that matters most in global payroll.
