Pam, We are Magic 5.4 SR3 and we have Kronos Workforce 4.3 (upgrading to 5.2 next month or so).
Our vendor, M.M.Hayes, provided an interface application for the two to pass data back and forth. Each night, a custom NPR report is scheduled to run and includes all employees with their basic information. It is ftp'd to a location accessible to the Kronos server. Each early morning, a scheduled job on the Kronos server grabs the file and 'creates' any new employees and 'updates' (name changes, department changes, address changes, etc) existing employees. New employees are given a 'standard' payrule. HR then goes in the next day and changes them if necessary (40 hour overtime agreement, Exempt, ED physician, etc). We do the above again around 11am. Each payroll period, we run a routine in the interface application that creates the timecard file in the format that Meditech requires for import. Then, we run payroll in Meditech (using the Create Timecards O/V routines). We don't calculate accruals in Kronos (didn't purchase that module). So, after payroll is processed, Accounting runs a custom NPR report for Non-termed employees only with their updated accrual balances. This is ftp'd to the same location used for employee imports. At 3pm on payroll day, a scheduled job on the Kronos server grabs the file and updates the accrual balances for all active employees. Hope this helps. Lori McCarthy H.I.S.

If so, how do you transfer data between the two and what versions of each are you using? We're challenged with keeping the two synch'd and would appreciate any feedback. Thanks.
