Dayforce is expanding its human capital management platform with new tools that allow users to generate applications and documents using plain language. This release includes the Dayforce Build framework and a digital marketplace for managing custom software.
Why it matters
These tools aim to help employers tailor workforce software to their specific needs without requiring external custom development. By integrating these features directly into the platform, Dayforce seeks to address the growing demand for adaptable human resources and payroll systems.
The new framework supports the SOX 404 compliance standard for financial reporting controls. It is currently being used by partners like Deloitte to develop specialized payroll software within the system.
