The core purpose of ADP’s cloud-based, mobile-friendly Accountant Connect portal has always been to provide quick and secure access to authorized ADP small to mid-sized business clients’ pay data. As accountants’ needs have evolved, we’ve listened to feedback from our clients requesting new strategic advisory tools. As a result, ADP has enhanced its award-winning platform with robust analysis tools to help forward-thinking accountants and client advisers provide key employee insights for their clients based on pay data available in ADP® DataCloud:
- Our Client Insights is a series of dashboards displaying clients by payroll product, newly added jurisdictions, employee trends and the other ADP products being used, such as time & attendance, retirement plans and HR.
- Accountants can view their clients’ authorized data by payroll platform, HR features and time and attendance. Users will now see all their clients’ benefits along with compensation benchmarks, as those have become particularly important for small business to attract and retain top talent.
- Compensation Benchmarking and Industry Insights based on ADP’s 30 million pay records give users the most current compensation data and industry metrics to help their clients structure the strongest offers and compensation plans and gain data-driven insights on their industry.
Other newly added features include:
- A calculator to estimate whether clients are candidates for R&D Tax Credits.
- Reports for PPP loan forgiveness and other COVID-19-related legislation.
- IBISWorld® Industry reports, all updated in the last year, for additional insights into your clients’ needs
- Additional resources for the latest legislative changes in the Resources and Wolters Kluwer CCH Resource Library, powered by IntelliConnect.
