Integration

How it works

Once connected via a unified API, SCBConnect pulls relevant employee information—like name, email, hire date, salary, and dependents—directly from BambooHR. This data powers automated benefits enrolment, eligibility tracking, and ongoing updates, ensuring accuracy and eliminating duplicate entry. Any changes in BambooHR are reflected in SCBConnect with no extra effort from your HR team.
