QuickBooks holds the books. HR Cloud finishes the paperwork.

Once employee data is in HR Cloud, it turns the forms around it into automated workflows: custom PDF forms, profile pre-fill, approvals, e-signatures and completion tracking.

The HR Cloud form builder: employee fields on the left, a company contract with employee-data merge fields on the right

Workflow status

  1. Form configured
  2. Profile data pre-filled
  3. HR section complete
  4. Awaiting employee signature
  5. Completed and filed

Your PDFs went digital. Did your HR process?

Uploading employee documents to cloud storage doesn't fix the work around them: retyping details, chasing signatures and guessing what's complete.

Before: manual handoffs

A typical paper-and-email process.

  1. Download the PDFHR opens the company form from a shared drive.
  2. Copy details from the HRISName, ID, title and hire date typed in again.
  3. Email the attachmentThe form lives in someone's inbox.
  4. Follow up for the signaturePrint, sign, scan, send back.
  5. File the finished copyCompletion status is unclear until someone checks.

With HR Cloud: one workflow

The same form, configured once.

  1. Configure the company formStart from your existing PDF.
  2. Pre-fill from the employee profileAvailable data populates the fields.
  3. HR completes its sectionCompany-specific details go in first.
  4. Employee reviews and signsOn any device, no printing.
  5. Completion is recordedHR sees status without chasing.

Watch a company document become an automated workflow.

One form, from upload to signed. It plays on its own. Tap any step to watch it again.

Upload, map, pre-fill, complete, sign, track

One document, one workflow, nothing to chase.

Illustrative workflow with fictional data. It simulates the experience and is not a live editor.

Everything your employee documents need to keep moving.

Custom PDF forms

Bring your existing company documents into a configurable digital workflow. Upload the PDF, place fields and reuse the form for every employee.

Employee data pre-fill

Controlled employee access

Decide who completes each field. Sensitive information uses dedicated field types, so it isn't treated like an ordinary text box.

Permissions follow HR Cloud's documented field types. Confirm the exact access rules for your use case in a demo.

Frequently asked questions

HR admins export employee data from HR Cloud to QuickBooks Online in real time, and import employees from QuickBooks Online into HR Cloud nightly or on demand.
Name, employee number, address, start date, date of birth, email, gender, pay rate, separation date and phone numbers. Address errors are the most common reason an export fails.
Employees and updates for people who exist in both systems. Display name comes from QuickBooks. Location, department and position arrive as QuickBooks Unassigned until you set them in HR Cloud.
An HR admin turns on the integration under System Settings, Integrations, accepts the privacy consent, clicks Connect to QuickBooks, picks the company and authorizes.
QuickBooks accounts without payroll sync Active and Inactive reliably. Accounts with payroll use richer statuses that QuickBooks does not share with API partners, so status derived from them can be wrong.
No. HR Cloud does not process payroll.
It helps HR teams store, organize, route and track employee documents. Workflow-based systems also pre-fill forms, route approvals, collect signatures and show which documents are outstanding.
Yes. The background form builder works from a PDF and lets you place fields on it. Very complex PDFs should be reviewed with HR Cloud first.
Yes, where the data exists in the employee profile. Fields that are not in the profile stay open for HR or the employee.
Yes. HR Cloud supports configurable signing orders, including HR-first.
