As part of Simpplr's app tiles feature, we offer several out-of-the-box app tiles your org can set up on home and site dashboards. The article linked below gives an overview of how app tiles work, permissions around setting them up, and various requirements.
Setting Up Out-of-the-Box App Tiles on Dashboards
This article explains the UKG Pro and UKG Pro WFM tiles.
UKG Pro and UKG Pro WFM tiles
- Enables users to view time off balances retrieved from UKG and display recent paystubs, apply for time off, and view their shift schedules.
- The time-off balance tile displays:
- Leave type
- Used leave
- Remaining leave
The Apply for time off pre-built app tile for UKG Pro WFM includes an enhancement in 25.06 that allows users to request long-term leaves of absence, in addition to the existing time-off request option.
Prerequisites:
-
- The user's email in Simpplr must correspond to their email in UKG Pro
OR - The sync source must be selected as "UKG Pro", and the sync identifier is set to the users' UKG Pro Employee ID. The admin user should create a custom field named "ukgProCompanyId", which syncs the users' UKG Pro Company ID
- The user's email in Simpplr must correspond to their email in UKG Pro
If neither are set up, (i.e. the user does not have an email/user's email does not match/UKG Pro syncing setup is not done) then this UKG app tile will not work.

Setting up the UKG Pro tile
The following 2 inputs are required while adding this app tile to a dashboard:
- UKG Pro Instance URL (mandatory):
- This URL generates Paystub links.
- Default Format: https://<name>.ultipro.com
- Example: https://et19.ultipro.com
- Pay Identifier Key (optional):
- Default: gennumber
Steps to Identify UKG Pro Instance URL:
Note:
In case of broken paystub Links, follow the below steps to identify your non-standard UKG Pro Instance URL and Pay identifier key.
- Navigate to Myself > Pay > Current Pay Statement on the UKG dashboard.
- Right-click on the Pay Statement and select Inspect Element.
- Search for "Link to old Web Pay Statement."
- Copy the URL next to href=.
- Use this URL as the UKG Pro Instance URL.
Note:
For both scenarios specified above, in case the Pay identifier key is different from the default (“gennumber”), the value must be provided in the Pay identifier key field, as the value cannot be presumed purely on the basis of the UKG Pro instance URL.
Steps to Identify Pay Identifier Key:
- Follow steps 1-4 from the above "Instance URL" section.
- The Pay Identifier Key typically follows an equal sign (=) and precedes an alphanumeric string.
- Example: If the URL is https://<name>.ultipro.com/pages/VIEW/EEPayrollPayCheckDetailOriginal.aspx?...&gennumber=BM54VZ0090K0, the Pay Identifier Key is gennumber.
