Move off BambooHR to Indian HRM without a single payroll gap
Switch from BambooHR to Indian HRM in one clean cutover. We export your employee master, leave balances, and pay history, then rebuild them inside statutory-ready Indian payroll: PF, ESI, PT, and TDS from day one. Run both systems side by side for a month if you want proof before you commit. Nothing gets lost. No month goes unpaid.
Most SMEs finish the switch inside one pay cycle, with PF, ESI, PT, and 24Q filings live from the first run.
What the BambooHR integration does
Full data export from BambooHR
We pull your entire employee master, reporting lines, documents, and custom fields out of BambooHR through its API or a CSV export, whichever you prefer.
Leave balances carried over exactly
Every accrued leave balance, comp-off, and pending request moves across with its running total intact, so nobody loses a day earned under BambooHR.
Payroll rebuilt for Indian statutory
Salary structures come in and get mapped to PF (12%), ESI (0.75% employee / 3.25% employer), state PT, TDS, and gratuity (4.81%), configured before your first run.
Historical records preserved
Past payslips, Form 16s, appraisal notes, and offer letters are imported as read-only history, so audits and employee queries stay answerable.
Parallel run to prove the numbers
Keep BambooHR live for a cycle while Indian HRM runs alongside, then compare payslips line by line before you cut the cord.
Reconciliation and sign-off
We match headcount, CTC totals, and leave ledgers between both systems and hand you a variance report to approve before go-live.
Setup in four steps
- Export and map — Connect your BambooHR account or drop a CSV, and we map every field to Indian HRM including custom ones you set up years ago.
- Rebuild salary and statutory setup — Your pay structures get translated into PF, ESI, PT, and TDS components, with UANs, ESIC numbers, and PANs validated against the imported records.
- Import leave and history — Leave balances, pending approvals, and historical payslips and documents load in, then we reconcile totals against your last BambooHR report.
- Run parallel and verify — Process one cycle in both systems and compare the output employee by employee, so you sign off on real numbers, not a promise.
- Cut over and go live — Once the variance report checks out, you switch off BambooHR and run your next payroll entirely on Indian HRM.
Why customers use this integration
- No payroll gap: your next salary run happens on schedule, whether you switch mid-month or at year-end.
- Statutory compliance handled from run one, with PF ECR, ESI challans, PT slabs, and 24Q returns generated in the right formats.
- Full history stays searchable, so an employee asking for a two-year-old payslip gets it in seconds.
- Leave balances land accurate to the day, which kills the disputes that usually follow a mid-year system change.
- Lower running cost than BambooHR's per-employee pricing, with Indian tax filings included instead of bolted on.
BambooHR integration FAQs
Is my employee data safe during the migration?
Yes. Data moves over an encrypted channel and lives on servers with role-based access. Your BambooHR account stays untouched and active through the whole process, so there is always a fallback copy. Nothing is deleted on either side until you confirm the switch.
How much downtime should we expect?
None for your team. Employees keep using BambooHR right up to go-live, and the import runs in the background. The only visible change is the login they use for their next payslip, and that happens after you have already approved the numbers.
Will payroll continue without a break?
That is the whole point of the parallel run. We process a full cycle in Indian HRM while BambooHR is still live, compare both outputs, and only cut over once they match. Your salary calendar does not shift and no month goes unpaid.
What does the migration cost?
Standard migration of employee master, leave balances, and 12 months of pay history is included in onboarding at no extra charge. Larger back-history loads or heavy custom-field mapping are quoted upfront, so there are no surprises on the invoice.
What happens to our old BambooHR payslips and Form 16s?
They come across as read-only historical records tied to each employee. You can view, download, and share them from Indian HRM, which means you can cancel BambooHR without losing anything you might need for an audit or a past-employee query.
