Integrations
Nobody should type a staff list twice.
A new hire appears on Monday and rides on Tuesday. Someone leaves, and their credits stop the same hour. That only works if Rydlnk reads from the systems you already keep accurate.
Three kinds of system, one canonical employee.
People come from HR. Shifts come from workforce management. Spend goes back to finance. Rydlnk keeps one employee record and treats every source as a feed into it.

Any system
Pull, resolve, apply, push.
Pull
Read on a schedule
A nightly full sync plus webhooks for hires, terminations and roster changes. Full sync catches drift; webhooks catch the things that can't wait until morning.
Resolve
Match to a person
Employee number first, work email second. Conflicts go to a review queue instead of quietly creating a duplicate person with a second wallet.
Apply
Move entitlements
A department change moves the cost center. A promotion changes the entitlement rule. A termination freezes the wallet and reclaims unspent credits.
Push
Send spend back
A journal per cost center per period, with seat-level detail attached, posted through the finance connector or exported as CSV.
A file drop is a perfectly good integration.
Plenty of good employers run their roster in a spreadsheet. Drop a CSV on SFTP, or upload it in the portal, and Rydlnk maps the columns once and remembers. The only fields that genuinely matter are an employee identifier, a home address, a department and a shift time.
The one thing worth getting right early is the home address, because an employee without a geocoded location can't be clustered and quietly disappears from every manifest. The portal surfaces those as a review queue rather than letting them fall through.
