Upwork Integrations: Streamline Your Workforce Workflows

Many businesses today have several systems in place to manage hiring, human resources, and business spend. Navigating multiple technology solutions can be complicated and time-consuming, presenting challenges with effectively adhering to standard company workflows and processes, quickly onboarding and offboarding workers, and managing spend.

Upwork integrations can help your business work smarter, and ease some of the frustrations in your workday, by enabling you to connect Upwork with the systems you already use.

Streamline and centralize hiring, program management, and business spend management across your contingent workforce with Upwork’s interconnected ecosystem of applicant tracking system (ATS), human resource information system (HRIS), and spend management system integrations.

Upwork integrations include:

• Applicant tracking systems
• Human resource information systems
• Purchase order and spend management systems

Applicant tracking systems

Upwork’s applicant tracking system integrations eliminate manual steps throughout the hiring journey with a centralized and automated hiring process between Upwork and your ATS.

Benefits of Upwork’s ATS integrations include:

• Eliminate manual steps by sending job requisitions directly from your application tracking system into Upwork
• Automatically update job posts in Upwork when changes are made to job requisitions in your ATS
• Stay organized by automatically closing job posts in Upwork when a job requisition is closed in your application tracking system  

Human resource information systems

With Upwork’s human resource information systems integrations, streamline freelancer onboarding and offboarding with the automated exchange of freelancer and contract data between Upwork and your HRIS.

Upwork’s HRIS integrations enable you to:

• Begin onboarding and provisioning at the point of hire and remove all access upon contract end date
• Automatically create records at the point of hire and close freelancer records upon contract end date in your HRIS
• Receive updated records, contract details, and freelancer information directly in your HRIS anytime changes are made in Upwork

HRIS integration capabilities also help increase operational efficiency across your contingent workforce with comprehensive analytics and reporting. Get an instant view of your total workforce, including freelancers, with workforce analytics directly in your HRIS.

Purchase order and spend management systems

Upwork integrations with purchase order and spend management systems help control costs and reduce unapproved spend with automated spend management processes and complete visibility into overall spend across your organization.

Through Upwork’s spend management integrations, you can:  

• Reduce unapproved spend with a workflow that requires purchase orders go through necessary approval before being sent to Upwork
• Automatically keep purchase orders in your spend management solution and Upwork in sync some text
  • Create purchase orders in Upwork when an Upwork-specific purchase order is approved in your company’s spend management instance
  • Automatically update or close purchase orders in Upwork anytime changes are made or a purchase order is closed in your company’s spend management instance
• Save time on invoice reconciliation with an integration that helps eliminate missing or incorrect purchase orders on invoices
