  • Updated

Admins can integrate their Gusto Payroll to Lattice HRIS. 

Before you start

  • Contact Lattice Customer Care (customercare@lattice.com) to enable the necessary backend features for the Gusto integration in your Lattice account.
  • Ensure that all compensation data has been set up in Lattice.
  • The person setting this integration up should be a super admin on both Lattice and Gusto.
  • Lattice uses both Personal Email and Birthdate as unique identifiers when matching users between systems so ensure that all of your employees in Lattice and Gusto have these fields filled out.

What information will come over to Lattice from Gusto?

Fields that are mapped by default. These are also the fields you will see on the Data Mapping table in the Gusto integration page in Lattice.
