Overall Satisfaction with UKG Ready

WFR was included as a time-keeping solution when we purchased the UKG Pro HCM suite of products. We were seeking the Scheduler function.
  • Timesheet Counters.
  • Advance scheduler automation.
  • Payroll Interface to UKG Payroll.
  • UKG Pro HR records do not sync into UKG WFR- WFR defaults total annualized hours to 2080 versus the scheduled hours in UKG; part-time hours and salaries are not housed in WFR correctly. The Standard Accrued Liability report does not calculate properly for part-time employees.
  • Workload template & refreshing Schedule template-Adding new shifts to the workload template cannot be refreshed in the Schedule Template. All shifts are re-imported. To correct each shift in each template needs to be manually deleted.
  • Accruals Reset: Terminated employee's accrual balances are retained in WFR indefinitely. Re-hires in UKG Pro require a manual re-hire process in WFR to clear out old balances.
  • Due to issues within WFR, we are debating moving over to Dimensions.
It fell short of our reporting needs. The scheduler has limitations, but it functions for us.
We integrated into the UKG Pro payroll. No issues to report.

Would you buy UKG Ready again?

No

WFR is a fair stand-alone HCM product for a small company. It has the capabilities to support HR, timekeeping, scheduling, and leave/absence management. No issues to report with the interface between WFR & UKG Payroll. People Analytics does not support WFR. Running reports require consolidating information from both platforms.
