What is ADP?
ADP is our online payroll system. Once you have been hired in a role and have completed your appropriate tax paperwork, our team will create a payment profile for you. This profile will allow you to access your pay history, pay statements, and hours worked. You can also edit your tax dependents, address, and banking information within this profile.
When should I register with ADP?
Because our accounting team has to create your ADP profile using your completed tax forms, you likely will not be recognized in the ADP system until after you receive your first paycheck from Creatives On Call. The best time to register is after the initial funds have cleared.
How do I register with ADP?
To register with ADP, reach out to a Creatives On Call team member and ask for a registration code. After you’re hired, we’ll share an informational sheet along with any tax forms you need to complete.
How do I see my current paycheck or past pay stubs?
To see your pay information, just log in to your ADP profile. After you’re logged in, select Pay and you’ll see your current paycheck, past pay stubs, and year-to-date earnings.
Why can’t I log in to ADP?
If you receive the error message, "The Email Address Is Not Recognized," this means that our team has not set up your ADP profile yet. Please allow your first payment to process before trying to log in again. If you receive any other error message, please contact Creatives On Call for assistance.
Whom do I contact for help with ADP?
Contact our team for help with things such as updating your address, tax dependents, and banking information. For more complex needs, please contact ADP directly at 1-844-227-5237.
