Qrew HR works best when it isn't an island. Integrations let attendance data flow in from devices, payroll data flow out to your accounts, and employees sign in with the work account they already use. This article explains the kinds of integrations available and how to connect them.
Not every integration is available on every plan. Check the Pricing page or ask our team, and see the Integrations page for the latest list.
Integration categories
| Category | What it does |
|---|---|
| Biometric and attendance devices | Brings punches from fingerprint, face recognition, or card devices into Qrew HR attendance. |
| Accounting software | Sends payroll totals and salary journals to your accounting system so finance doesn't re-enter them. |
| Calendar and email | Shows approved leave and holidays on work calendars and delivers notifications to work email. |
| Single sign-on (SSO) | Lets employees sign in with their existing work account instead of a separate password. |
1. Open the integrations area
- Sign in as an admin and go to Settings → Integrations.
- You will see the integrations available to your account, grouped by category, with their connection status.
2. Connect biometric or attendance devices
- In Settings → Integrations, choose Attendance Devices and click Add Device.
- Enter the device details and the location it belongs to.
- Map device user IDs to Qrew HR Employee IDs. If they already match, mapping is automatic.
- Run a test sync and check that a few punches appear in Attendance.
3. Connect accounting software
- Choose Accounting and follow the connection steps for your system.
- Map payroll components (salaries, PF, ESI, TDS, reimbursements) to your ledger accounts.
- After each completed payroll run, export or sync the journal.
4. Connect calendar and email
- Choose Calendar & Email and authorise the connection with your work account.
- Choose what to sync, for example approved leave and company holidays.
- Each employee may need to allow access the first time they use it.
5. Set up single sign-on
- Choose Single Sign-On and enter the details from your identity provider.
- Test with an admin account before turning it on for everyone.
- Keep one admin able to sign in with a password as a fallback.

Common questions
My device punches are not showing up. What should I check?
Confirm the device is online, the employee ID mapping is correct, and the device's date and time are accurate.
Does an integration copy all my HR data to the other tool?
No. Each integration only moves the data needed for its purpose, such as punches or payroll totals.
Can I disconnect an integration?
Yes. Open it in Settings → Integrations and click Disconnect. Data already synced stays in Qrew HR.
