I have processed payroll while away on vacation multiple times using my iPad. I even did it once from a cruise ship when I paid for internet access. Make sure you have signed in on that particular device before. If you haven't then you need to get codes sent to you which might be harder if you're out of cell phone reach.

Yes, I've rarely had problems working from home, when it's needed. As always, you have to be careful with any network. Paylocity is usually very good about being up and running consistently and they notify you when maintenance is being done ahead of time.

Yes, but make sure you have a good internet connection. I travel, and access Paylocity from all over the U.S. The only time I have problems is when there is a slow internet connection. I also recommend making sure you have a SECURE internet connection.

Ernest Paylocity can be used from anywhere you have a internet connection. If you are an administrator on your account I would also ask that Paylocity extend Multi Factor Authentication to you to make sure all of your logins are protected. Your PCTY representative can assist.

Not only can you use it at home, but anywhere you have wifi. I did payroll from a mountain top in Montana. Just another reason to love Paylocity!

Answered: Valerie Young on December 19, 2019

Yes, anywhere there is access to wifi you will be able to manage the day to day of your business with Paylocity however I highly recommend making sure all connections are secure only because of the data you are storing with this platform. Could you log in at an internet cafe in Paris on a business trip to correct a payroll issue....yes you can, but I would I recommend it...no. Paylocity is not only user friendly even with remote access but their customer service is great if you get hung up in any way just give them a call and your personalized team will walk you through it
