Frequently asked questions
Does ELMO's integration with Affinity require IT setup?
No custom build is needed on your side. Affinity's API handles the two-way data sync and single sign-on between the two platforms out of the box, so ELMO and Affinity stay connected without a bespoke integration project.
Can I switch from ELMO's native payroll to Affinity without losing HR data?
Yes. ELMO stays your system of record for HR data – onboarding, positions and employee records. The two-way sync keeps that data flowing into Affinity automatically, so moving payroll providers doesn't mean re-entering or losing anything already held in ELMO.
What data actually syncs between ELMO and Affinity?
Employee records – new starters, role and position changes, and personal details – sync automatically between the two systems, so payroll and HR are always working from the same information.
Do employees need separate logins for ELMO and Affinity?
No. Single sign-on lets employees move between ELMO and Affinity without logging in twice, so self-service payslips, leave and personal details feel like one connected experience.
