What you can automate today

Redbird gives your team ready-to-run workflows — just connect your accounts and go.

Sync payroll data to Power BI for real-time compensation analytics

Automatically push payroll runs, salary changes, and bonus payments from ADP into Power BI data models. Keep compensation dashboards current without manual exports. Track labor costs, overtime trends, and payroll variance across departments in real time.

Build headcount and turnover dashboards from live ADP employee data

Stream employee hire dates, terminations, department transfers, and status changes into Power BI. Maintain up-to-date headcount reports, turnover metrics, and workforce planning dashboards. Eliminate weekly HR data exports and stale employee counts.

Create attendance and PTO utilization reports from ADP time tracking

Pull time entries, PTO requests, and attendance records from ADP into Power BI for workforce productivity analysis. Track absenteeism patterns, PTO accrual trends, and overtime by team. Automate monthly attendance reporting for leadership.

Alert HR when Power BI dashboards detect compensation anomalies

Monitor salary variance, pay equity metrics, and bonus distributions in Power BI, then trigger notifications in ADP when thresholds are exceeded. Surface potential compliance issues or data errors before payroll processing. Route alerts to HR administrators for immediate review.

Enrich Power BI workforce models with benefits and deductions data

Sync benefits enrollment, health plan selections, and payroll deductions from ADP into Power BI data warehouses. Build total compensation dashboards that include base pay, bonuses, and benefit costs. Track benefits utilization and costs per employee segment.

Automate monthly HR metrics refresh from ADP to executive dashboards

Schedule automatic data pulls from ADP to update Power BI executive scorecards with headcount, cost per hire, time to fill, and retention metrics. Eliminate manual reporting cycles and ensure leadership views current workforce data. Maintain historical trends without rebuilding datasets.

Live in four steps

No engineers, no pipelines to maintain. Redbird handles the connectivity — you focus on the outcome.

01

Connect your accounts

Authorize ADP and Power BI with OAuth or API credentials. Redbird never stores your data — it just passes through.

02

Describe what you want

Tell Redbird what to do in plain language — no SQL, no code, no configuration files required.

03

Review and activate

Redbird shows you exactly what it will do before running anything. Approve the workflow, set a schedule, and switch it on.

04

Let it run — and iterate

Workflows run on your schedule or on triggers. Every run is logged. Adjust with natural language at any time.

Built for data-driven teams

Redbird understands ADP's payroll structures, employee hierarchies, and time tracking schemas alongside Power BI's data models, refresh schedules, and row-level security requirements.

AI that speaks both ADP and Power BI

Redbird maps ADP employee records, pay codes, org structures, and benefit plans to Power BI tables and relationships without custom connectors. The platform handles incremental data loads, manages employee history tables, and preserves dimension keys for reporting. It understands how to structure ADP's multi-level org hierarchies as Power BI dimensions and routes compensation data to fact tables while respecting data privacy rules.

Set conditions in natural language. Get notified in Slack or email the moment a threshold is crossed in either ADP or Power BI.

Enterprise-grade security

SOC 2 Type II certified. Data flows encrypted in transit and at rest. Fine-grained permission controls with full audit logs.

Bidirectional sync

Push data from ADP into Power BI, or from Power BI back into ADP. Resolve conflicts with configurable merge rules.

Full audit trail

Every workflow run is logged — what ran, what changed, and why. Replay or revert any individual step at any time.
