What is ADP Workforce Now On the Go

ADP Workforce Now On the Go is a mobile app that extends ADP Workforce Now with employee and manager self-service for payroll-related tasks, time entry, and basic HR actions. It is used by mid-sized organizations that run payroll and workforce administration in ADP and want mobile access for approvals, timecard actions, and pay information. The app is designed to work as part of the broader ADP Workforce Now platform rather than as a standalone time tracking tool. Functionality available to a user can vary by the employer’s ADP configuration and permissions.

pros

Mobile access to payroll data

Employees can view pay statements, tax forms (where enabled), and direct deposit information from a mobile device. This supports common payroll self-service needs without requiring desktop access. For organizations already standardized on ADP Workforce Now, it reduces reliance on HR/payroll administrators for routine inquiries.

Manager approvals on the go

Managers can review and approve timecards, time off requests, and other workflow items depending on enabled modules. This can shorten approval cycles compared with desktop-only processes. It is particularly useful for distributed teams where supervisors are frequently away from a workstation.

Tight integration with ADP platform

Because it is an ADP Workforce Now companion app, it uses the same underlying employee records, payroll rules, and security model as the core system. This reduces the need for separate integrations that are common when pairing standalone time tracking tools with payroll. It also helps keep time and payroll data aligned when both are managed in ADP.

cons

Not a standalone time tracker

The app depends on an organization having ADP Workforce Now and the relevant modules configured. Companies looking for an independent time tracking or attendance product may find it unsuitable without adopting the broader ADP ecosystem. Feature depth for project-centric tracking and task-level workflows is typically limited compared with dedicated work management tools.

Feature availability varies by setup

What users can do in the app depends on the employer’s configuration, enabled services, and role permissions. As a result, two organizations can have materially different mobile capabilities even with the same app. This can complicate rollout expectations and training across departments or business units.

Limited customization and reporting

Mobile experiences generally prioritize standard self-service actions over deep customization. Advanced reporting, complex exception handling, and some administrative controls may still require desktop access to the main platform. Organizations that need highly tailored mobile workflows may need additional tools or custom processes.
