How Tory Burch Left Manual Payroll Behind

There’s a version of payroll administration where payroll employees are thoroughly enmeshed in the process. Every step requires a person to push it forward, to move data from one place to the next manually, and to check that nothing falls through the cracks. That’s the reality Evan Saltzman, senior payroll analyst at the global fashion and lifestyle brand Tory Burch, knew from working with ADP and other legacy systems.

"On ADP, and a lot of other systems, there's so much manual work that you are the process," Evan says. "You sort of feel like you're pushing a cart."

Working with OneSource Virtual (OSV) has been a different kind of experience. Instead of being the one doing the work — pushing the cart — it’s more like watching the data come by on a conveyor belt. The data comes to him, and his job is to screen it, ensure everything is routed to the right place, and confirm that it’s correct.

"It's way less administrative. It's much more analytical, where you're getting into the data and reviewing it to make sure it's correct, as opposed to physically being the person doing it yourself."

That shift — from doing to reviewing — is what happens when a service partner delivers payroll inside your Workday tenant rather than in a separate system. OSV's Workday-native model handles the manual heavy lifting, giving your team the bandwidth to focus on accuracy and oversight instead of execution.

"It just changes the way you go about the whole process."

Watch Evan explain what that difference looks like in practice.
