Manager on-the-go®
Complete essential management tasks and access employee data instantly through our manager self-service HR software accessible anytime, anywhere
How it works
An enhanced experience
Our Manager on-the-Go tool allows leaders to tackle essential tasks and instantly retrieve the employee data they need — all from Paycom’s mobile app. This keeps work from piling up when they’re away from their desks, on the floor, in meetings or wherever, while supporting smarter workflow automation for everyday manager actions.
How It's different
Efficiency in the palm of their hand
Some things simply can’t wait. That’s why we created Manager on-the-Go. It gives managers instant answers on employee data and the freedom to lead without letting key supervisory tasks slip through the cracks — with mobile-first HR automation that helps keep work moving in real time.
Manage employees in one app
Manager on-the-Go is part of Paycom’s single software, eliminating the need for multiple apps and data reentry. With just one login and password, managers can complete essential tasks, instantly access employee data and even toggle to Employee Self-Service® with a single click.
Streamline your workflow
Built by Paycom at Paycom, every tool, including Manager on-the-Go, was designed to work together for a seamless flow of data across our software. This paves the way for automation and prevents your workload from standing in the way.
Lighten your load
The more managers can do, the less HR has to. With all the Paycom tools managers need, Manager on-the-Go makes tackling HR tasks easy and automatic. This cuts down on your administrative burden, reduces manual follow-up and automates workflows where it makes sense.
Keep business moving
When you free your managers, you remove roadblocks that slow them down. Less time spent on administrative tasks and retrieving employee data means more time invested in your team, increased efficiency and maximized ROI.
Full-solution automation
Workflow automation for managers
When managers can take action the moment work comes in, everything moves faster. That’s what full-solution automation across HR and payroll is all about:
- less manual follow-up
- fewer slowdowns
- smoother flow of work
Because Manager on-the-Go is part of Paycom’s single software, tasks and data aren’t stuck in separate systems. Approvals, updates and employee information connect in one place, helping eliminate reentry, reduce errors and keep you caught up.
Automation that keeps work moving
- Automated workflow momentum: Complete approvals and updates in real time so tasks don’t pile up when you’re away from your desk.
- Fewer handoffs, fewer mistakes: With everything connected, information flows through the software instead of being retyped or tracked down.
- More visibility, better decisions: When data stays in one place, you can act with confidence and keep your team focused on the work that matters.
The result? Automated approvals and connected processes that help managers spend less time chasing tasks and more time leading.
