What you can automate today

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

Auto-update headcount and compensation dashboards from live ADP data

Keep Tableau workforce dashboards current with real-time employee counts, compensation changes, and org structure updates. Redbird syncs new hires, terminations, promotions, and salary adjustments from ADP automatically, so leadership always sees accurate headcount metrics without waiting for HR to export reports.

Build real-time payroll cost analytics by department and location

Flow payroll run data from ADP into Tableau to visualize labor costs, overtime trends, and budget variance by cost center. Redbird extracts payroll totals, tax withholdings, and benefit deductions after each pay period, enabling finance to track spending against forecasts without manual reconciliation.

Sync time and attendance data for operational workforce dashboards

Connect ADP time clock and PTO records to Tableau for live visibility into attendance patterns, absenteeism rates, and shift coverage. Redbird maps punch data, leave balances, and schedule adherence into visual dashboards that operations managers can monitor daily without pulling manual reports.

Enrich employee data with performance metrics for talent analytics

Combine ADP workforce demographics with performance review scores, training completion, and tenure data in unified Tableau dashboards. Redbird joins employee records across systems, enabling People Analytics teams to identify retention risks, skill gaps, and high-performer profiles without rebuilding datasets manually.

Alert HR when dashboard metrics exceed compliance or budget thresholds

Monitor Tableau workforce dashboards and trigger actions in ADP when metrics hit critical levels. When overtime hours spike beyond policy limits or departmental headcount exceeds approved budget, Redbird sends alerts and can flag records in ADP for review, closing the loop between analytics and action.

Archive historical payroll and benefits data for long-term trend analysis

Capture point-in-time snapshots of ADP payroll runs, benefits elections, and compensation changes for historical reporting in Tableau. Redbird preserves data at each pay period close, enabling multi-year trend analysis and compliance audits without relying on ADP's retention limits or manual archiving.

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 Tableau 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, employee, and time tracking schemas alongside Tableau's data source structure, so you can automate workforce analytics without writing custom connectors or transformation scripts.

AI that maps ADP workforce data to Tableau extracts automatically

Redbird's AI knows ADP's employee records, compensation history, pay run structures, time punch formats, and benefits tables—and how to shape them for Tableau hyper extracts and live connections. It handles date formatting for pay periods, flattens nested organizational hierarchies, calculates tenure and turnover metrics, and joins payroll transactions with employee master data. When ADP schemas change after updates or new modules are added, Redbird adapts your pipeline without breaking dashboards.
