A nearly 500-person, employee-owned insurance organization slashed onboarding document filing to under 10 minutes per employee, down from a process that consumed nearly 50 hours a year, by integrating DynaFile's cloud-based HR document management with Paylocity. Discover how fully automated new hire workflows eliminated manual downloading, spreadsheet tracking, and one-by-one uploads, freeing HR teams to focus on what actually moves the business forward.
GREENWOOD VILLAGE, Colo., June 16, 2026 /PRNewswire-±¬ÁϹ«Éçapp/ -- Cloud-based HR document management eliminates manual onboarding workflows and reduces filing time to under 10 minutes per employee for a nearly 500-person insurance organization.
HR teams are under increasing pressure to onboard employees faster while managing growing volumes of onboarding paperwork, acknowledgments, compliance records, and employee documentation across disconnected systems. For many organizations, the process still involves manually downloading files from HRIS platforms, saving documents locally, uploading them into employee folders, and tracking completion across multiple systems.
One growing, employee-owned insurance organization operating across all 50 states recently transformed that process using DynaFile's integration with Paylocity.
Before implementing the integration, the organization's HR team relied on manual, multi-step workflows to manage new hire onboarding documents. Staff retrieved completed onboarding paperwork individually from Paylocity, saved files locally, uploaded documents into DynaFile, and tracked completion across systems. To put the scale of the problem in context, manually pulling, organizing, and filing onboarding documents for 96 new hires in a single year represented approximately 48 hours of administrative effort, time that would only grow alongside the workforce.
The manual burden was especially visible during large-scale initiatives. A company-wide handbook acknowledgment rollout required the HR team to send mass emails, track responses in Excel, collect each signed document individually, and upload them one by one. What should have been a routine communications task became a multi-day administrative project.
After implementing the DynaFile and Paylocity integration, onboarding document workflows became fully automated. Completed new hire onboarding documents now flow directly from Paylocity into organized employee folders within DynaFile in real time, eliminating manual downloading, re-uploading, and repetitive filing tasks while improving consistency, accuracy, and accessibility across employee records.
The organization also leveraged DynaFile's multi-employee file view to simplify document retrieval and verification across multiple employee records simultaneously, improving workflow efficiency for HR staff.
"Paylocity does a great job managing employee data, but documents often live somewhere else entirely," said Brian McCleary, Vice President of Operations at DynaFile. "DynaFile serves as the document management layer on top of the HRIS, so every completed onboarding form, acknowledgment, and job description is automatically filed in the right place the moment it's done. No manual steps, no missing files."
The implementation delivered measurable operational improvements:
- Reduction of onboarding document filing time to 10 minutes or less per employee
- 100 percent automated new hire filing workflows from Paylocity to DynaFile
- Hundreds of hours of manual administrative work eliminated annually
- Streamlined handbook acknowledgment workflows that no longer require spreadsheets or manual uploads
"The DynaFile + Paylocity integration has transformed our document management by automating time-consuming tasks, reducing errors, and speeding up processes," said Jordan Meador, Talent and Culture Business Partner at Houchens Insurance Group. "It's a game-changer for efficiency and accuracy, allowing us to focus on more strategic work."
As organizations continue scaling hiring efforts while navigating increasing compliance expectations, many HR departments are reevaluating the inefficiencies created by disconnected onboarding and employee document management systems.
"Many of the HR teams we work with love their HRIS but find that employee documents still end up managed separately, outside the system," said Brock Kane, Vice President of Sales and Marketing at DynaFile. "DynaFile bridges that space, so every new hire file is built automatically, consistently, and accurately from day one, regardless of how fast the organization is growing."
The organization is also planning to expand its use of DynaFile to automate additional high-volume processes, including annual training certificate management.
