What you can do with this MCP connector

The UKG Pro MCP Server hooks your agent directly into the core functions of UKG Dimensions/WFM. You can use this server to check employee eligibility for time off, pull accurate work schedules, manage PTO requests, and verify daily hours worked across any department. When you connect your AI client, you get immediate access to critical workforce data, letting your agent handle complex HR tasks without needing manual logins.

If you need to plan staffing or tell an employee what they can take off, start with the accruals tool. It lists exactly how many hours of paid time off—like sick leave or vacation days—an employee has banked right now. This gives your agent a concrete number; they'll know instantly if someone is eligible for a week off or if they need to wait until next quarter.

For a full picture, you’ll want the schedules tool too. It pulls the official work schedule for one or more employees over any date range you specify. This isn't just a list of names; it shows the expected shifts and hours—the real plan for who needs to be where. You can use these two tools together: first, check their accrual balance to confirm they have enough time, then pull the schedule to see what dates those balances cover.

When an employee talks about taking time off, you'll need to validate it using timeoff. This tool lists every current and past time-off request made by that person. Your agent can review these records to confirm if a requested date is already approved or if they submitted the same dates twice.

It’s how your client verifies dates and statuses before committing to anything. You don't just see pending requests; you get the full history of their leave status.

Finally, when it comes time for payroll review, the timesheets tool is what you need. This fetches records detailing an employee's daily working hours. It includes the actual clock in and clock out punches—the raw data your HR team needs to verify pay. Your agent can pull these historical timesheet records to check if all shifts were accounted for or if there are discrepancies between the expected schedule and the reported punch times.

Think about a typical day: an employee asks, “Can I take next Tuesday off?” Your AI client uses accruals to confirm they have enough sick time. It then checks timeoff to make sure they haven't already scheduled leave for that date. If the dates are clear, your agent can pull the official roster using schedules just to show them what their normal shift hours were on that day.

After the week is done, if an issue pops up with pay, your client jumps right into timesheets to see those actual clock punches and compare them against everything else. These four tools give you complete visibility over a worker's status, availability, and logged work time.

Your agent doesn't just guess; it pulls verified data points: the exact remaining sick hours from accruals, the full list of shifts pulled from schedules, every submission recorded in timeoff, and the granular punch-by-punch breakdown available through timesheets. You’ll stop wasting time on manual cross-referencing because everything your team needs lives here.

How UKG Pro Workforce Management MCP Works

  1. 1 Your agent first identifies the required data (e.g., 'PTO balance for Jane Doe').
  2. 2 The agent invokes the specific tool—like accruals—and passes necessary parameters, such as the employee ID and leave type.
  3. 3 The MCP Server executes the API call to UKG Pro and returns a structured record of the current data (e.g., '120 hours remaining').

The bottom line is that it lets your AI client run complex HR lookups against live payroll records without needing manual database queries.

Who Is UKG Pro Workforce Management MCP For?

This server is for Payroll Specialists, HR Managers, and Operations Leads. If you spend time reconciling timesheets manually or verifying leave balances before the pay cycle closes—you need this. It cuts out the spreadsheet work.

Payroll Specialist

Uses timesheets and accruals to confirm that hours worked match paid time, ensuring compliance for every employee.

HR Manager

Checks timeoff and schedules when an employee submits a request or needs their roster confirmed for the month.

Operations Lead

Verifies staffing capacity by pulling multiple schedules across different departments to prevent understaffing.

What Changes When You Connect

  • Stops payroll errors before they happen. By running accruals, you immediately see if an employee has enough PTO banked to cover the time off request, preventing pay delays.
  • Saves hours reconciling shifts. Pulling schedules lets your agent verify rosters against department needs instantly, eliminating manual spreadsheet comparisons for shift coverage.
  • Closes out timesheets faster. You can run timesheets to find missing punches or discrepancies immediately, telling the manager exactly who missed clocking in or out.
  • Instant leave status checks. If someone asks about a day off, calling timeoff gives you their exact request history and current approval status without logging into three different portals.
  • Better compliance records. Combining data from accruals, schedules, and timesheets lets your agent build a verifiable trail of hours worked vs. time paid out.

Real-World Use Cases

01

Verifying Paid Time Off for a New Hire

A manager needs to know if John Doe has enough accrued PTO. Instead of manually logging into UKG and checking multiple tabs, the agent runs accruals with 'PTO' as the type. The system returns his current balance (e.g., 140 hours), confirming he can cover the requested time off.

02

Auditing a Week's Payroll Punches

Payroll needs to check if staff clocked out correctly on Friday. The agent runs timesheets for the whole team, which immediately flags that Alex M. missed clocking out at 4 PM and David K. was missing their morning punches.

03

Confirming Shift Coverage

The Operations Lead needs to know who is scheduled next week. They ask the agent to list schedules for the entire store. The system compiles a clear roster, letting them see exactly where gaps exist before posting shifts.

04

Processing an Interdepartmental Transfer

An employee is moving departments and needs their PTO status verified against new rules. The agent runs accruals to get the current balance, then checks the policy via timeoff history to ensure a smooth transfer record.

The Tradeoffs

Trying to guess accrual balances.

Manually calculating PTO by finding the start date and multiplying days by 8 hours. This ignores company-specific rules, carryover policies, or current year adjustments.

Always use the accruals tool. It pulls the definitive balance directly from UKG Pro, accounting for all complex policy changes automatically.

Assuming timesheets equal work hours.

Just looking at a calendar and assuming an employee worked every day they were scheduled. This fails if they had approved time off or unpaid leave.

Cross-reference schedules with the timesheets tool. Check both to confirm that any non-working days are recorded via timeoff.

Searching only by employee ID.

Requesting a schedule for 'Employee 123' when you actually need the roster for 'Department A' next week. The tool is too narrow to be useful on its own.

Always specify both the scope and the timeframe. Use schedules by passing parameters like 'Department: Retail' and 'Date Range: Next 7 days'.

When It Fits, When It Doesn't

Use this MCP Server if your core problem is verifying specific, structured employee data against live HR records—think PTO counts, official shifts, or clocked hours. It’s designed for audit-level accuracy.

Don't use it if you just need to read a static document (like the full company handbook) or if you are only doing high-level reporting on generalized trends across many years of data. For broad trend analysis, an export API or dedicated BI tool is better. If your task involves complex decision trees that cross multiple systems (e.g., checking payroll and tax law), you'll need a full workflow orchestration layer built on top of this server.

Available Capabilities

accruals schedules timeoff timesheets

Reconciling Employee Hours Shouldn't Be an Excel Nightmare.

Right now, figuring out if someone was paid correctly takes a mountain of clicks. You have to jump from the scheduling dashboard, cross-reference that with their submitted time-off requests in another system, and then compare both against the raw timesheets—all just to confirm a payroll entry for one person. It's tedious, it's slow, and it’s where mistakes happen.

With this MCP server, your agent handles the cross-referencing instantly. You simply ask: 'What were John Doe's hours last week?' And you get back a single, clean record that combines his official `timesheets` punches with any approved gaps from `timeoff`. The result is accurate data in seconds.

UKG Pro Workforce Management MCP Server: Get PTO and Leave Balances

Before this, checking an employee’s available leave meant navigating deep into the HR portal's accrual tab, hoping you found the right balance for sick vs. vacation. If the policy changed last quarter, it was hard to know which number was current or if the system even tracked carryover correctly.

Now, calling the `accruals` tool gives you a definitive answer on available PTO balances—no guesswork required. This single call provides the specific, up-to-the-minute data point needed for immediate payroll confidence.

Common Questions About UKG Pro Workforce Management MCP

How do I check an employee's current PTO balance using the accruals tool? +

To find a balance, use accruals and provide the employee ID along with the specific leave type (e.g., 'PTO'). The server returns their exact available hours immediately.

Can I see my team's schedule for next month using schedules? +

Yes, use schedules. You just need to pass the department name and the desired date range. It compiles a roster view of all assigned shifts for that period.

What is the difference between timeoff and timesheets? +

Simple: timeoff tracks requests (days you are out), while timesheets track your actual work punches (clocking in/out). You need both for a full payroll picture.

Does the timesheet tool handle missing punch data? +

Yes. Running the timesheets tool can flag exceptions, telling you if an employee missed clocking in or out on a specific day, which is critical for audit trails.

When I use the `accruals` tool, does it show future projected leave balances? +

No. The accruals tool pulls current, recorded balances from UKG Dimensions only. It cannot forecast future PTO totals or project how many days an employee will have next year.

If I run `schedules` for a large number of employees, does the system handle bulk requests? +

Yes, it accepts lists of employee IDs. However, keep in mind that repeated calls or overly massive batches might hit API rate limits; we recommend batching your queries.

If an employee reports a time off request via `timeoff`, how quickly is that update reflected? +

The tool retrieves the official status recorded in UKG Pro. If the record hasn't been formally approved or updated in the source system, our agent won't see it until the next sync cycle.

Does querying `timesheets` provide enough detail to determine if a punch is missing? +

It provides the raw time entries. You can compare start and end times against expected shift lengths, but determining why a punch is missing requires manual cross-referencing with local records.

What WFM data can AI manage? +

AI agents can query employee schedules, timesheet data, time-off requests/balances, accruals, and shift configurations.

Which authentication method does UKG Pro WFM use? +

It uses an API Access Token (OAuth2 Client Credentials flow) generated by the UKG Dimensions integration endpoint. You provide the generated token or credentials to the MCP Server.
