Frequently Asked Questions

Who does Asterion work with?

Asterion works with Dayforce customers across North America and Europe — primarily HRIS managers, payroll directors, and benefits leaders who need specialist support for integrations, automation, configuration, and ongoing platform optimization. We serve organizations of all sizes, from mid-market companies to enterprises managing complex multi-state, multi-entity payroll and workforce environments.

What Dayforce services does Asterion provide?

Our core services include Dayforce integrations (payroll journals, GL feeds, benefits carriers, third-party systems), automation (workflow optimization, data transformation), configuration reviews (pay policies, security roles, organizational structure), custom forms (XML forms and document workflows), troubleshooting (root cause analysis and resolution), and advisory support (roadmap planning, feature adoption, system optimization).

When should I schedule a consultation vs. submit a SOW request?

Schedule a consultation when you want to discuss your Dayforce environment, explore options, or talk through a challenge before committing to a specific scope. Submit a SOW request when you already have a clear project in mind — a specific integration build, a configuration audit, or a defined automation need — and you're ready for a tailored proposal.

What kinds of Dayforce challenges does Asterion handle?

We handle complex integration builds, payroll journal and GL accuracy issues, Workforce Management implementations across multiple states and legal entities, onboarding configuration, form development, security and role structure reviews, and system optimization projects. Our experience spans 40 U.S. states, 6 Canadian provinces, and 17 legal entities. If it involves Dayforce, we likely have direct experience with it.

How does Asterion approach a new engagement?

Every engagement begins with understanding your current Dayforce environment, your goals, and your constraints. We scope work carefully, deliver incrementally, and communicate clearly throughout. Our approach emphasizes practical results and fast execution over extended discovery phases — because your team needs solutions on a timeline, not a drawn-out assessment.

What is the Asterion integration guarantee?

Every integration we deliver is covered by a 1-year warranty: if a defect in the integration logic surfaces within 12 months of go-live, we fix it free of charge. Combined with flat-rate pricing and our first-integration offer — you only pay when your first integration moves to production — the risk of working with us sits on our side of the table, not yours.

How do flat-rate pricing and the first-integration offer work?

Every integration is scoped up front and quoted at one flat rate before any work begins. The price you approve is the price you pay — no hourly billing, no overage invoices. If the build takes longer than we planned, that's our problem, not yours.

For your first integration with Asterion, payment is due only when the integration is promoted to production. We scope it, build it, and validate it with you in your test environment — and if you decide not to take it live, you owe nothing. Every delivered integration is covered by a 1-year warranty from go-live: if any defect in the integration logic surfaces, we fix it free of charge. Changes to the agreed scope are quoted separately as their own flat rate.

Does Asterion offer California-specific Dayforce support?

Yes. We offer California configuration reviews tailored to the state's specific payroll, labor, and compliance requirements. California's regulatory environment is complex — from meal and rest break rules to overtime calculations and pay data reporting. Our configuration reviews ensure your Dayforce environment handles these requirements correctly and stays audit-ready.

Does Asterion work with platforms other than Dayforce?

Asterion specializes in Dayforce. Our depth of focus is what allows us to deliver faster and with more confidence than generalist consulting firms. If your challenge is Dayforce-related — integrations, automation, configuration, onboarding, WFM, payroll, or compliance — we're built for it.

How much does a custom Dayforce integration cost?

Every Asterion integration is quoted as a single flat rate based on scope, complexity, and the systems involved — agreed before any work begins, with no hourly billing. A single-feed benefits carrier integration is a different engagement than a multi-entity payroll journal rebuild, so we offer a free consultation to assess your needs and give you a fixed quote. Your first integration is risk-free: you only pay when it moves to production, and every integration carries a 1-year warranty.

How do I automate Dayforce pay policies and reduce manual processing?

Most manual Dayforce processing we encounter stems from pay policy gaps, missing automation rules, or integration workarounds that were never properly built. We audit your current configuration, identify where manual steps can be eliminated, and build the automation directly in Dayforce — from calculated fields and workflow triggers to fully automated data transformations. Our guarantee: we'll cut admin time by up to 95% in 30 days, or you don't pay.

What is a Dayforce Health Audit?

A Dayforce Health Audit is a comprehensive assessment of your entire Dayforce environment — organizational structure, pay policies, security roles, integration configurations, and data integrity. We identify risks, inefficiencies, and optimization opportunities, then deliver a prioritized action plan. Think of it as a full physical for your HRIS platform.

Can Asterion help with Dayforce implementations that went wrong?

Yes — implementation recovery is a common engagement for us. Whether the original implementation was rushed, under-scoped, or handled by generalists without deep Dayforce experience, we assess the current state, identify what needs to be reconfigured, and rebuild the foundation so your environment works as intended. Our team has direct experience recalibrating implementations at enterprise scale.
