ADP - Work Opportunity Tax Credit (WOTC)

To request the ADP WOTC integration, contact your Account Manager or go to Account & Settings > Avionté Marketplace > ADP WOTC > Details > Have an Avionté Account Executive Contact Me.

Avionté's integration with ADP WOTC allows staffing agencies to check employee eligibility for tax credits. Tax credits are provided to companies hiring individuals from certain target groups who have consistently faced significant barriers to employment. Avionté can be configured to have employees complete the ADP Work Opportunity Tax Credit screening through one of two methods: the Career Page workflow or an Onboarding Task. The integration with ADP will then automatically determine if the employee is eligible for federal tax credits and update the employee record in Avionté.

Configuration

1. Go to Account & Settings > Utilities > Careers Page Editor.
2. Select a Workflow from your list or add a new Workflow.

Usage

Applicant Workflow

If an applicant applies via a workflow with WOTC enabled, they will see it as an available step. 

If the WOTC screening was set to optional in the workflow, applicants will also see a Continue button, which can be used to bypass the screening.

When the applicant clicks Start Work Opportunity Tax Credit Survey, the browser will open a new tab to the screening. Talent will then complete the screening by answering the questions. Once the screening is complete, talent will be brought back to the Avionté application.

Talent Onboarding Task

If an employee does not complete the screening during the applicant process, users can send the WOTC screening to the employee via Onboarding Tasks. To send the WOTC screening as an Onboarding Task: 

1. Open a talent record and select the Onboarding tab.
2. Click Send Onboarding Tasks
3. Expand the Integration Tasks section
4. Check the box for WOTC Questionnaire
5. Select Production from the Select WOTC Configuration drop-down list
6. Click Send
