This guide walks through the steps required to set up Payscore as a vendor in TazWorks, configure searches, and route verification requests correctly. Once setup is complete, your team will be able to initiate automated income verification directly through your existing TazWorks workflow.
Overview
The TazWorks setup process involves:
Enabling the vendor interface
Adding Payscore as a vendor
Configuring searches
Setting vendor routing
Before starting, confirm that the Payscore vendor has been enabled on the backend by your support or implementation team.
Step 1: Manage Interface Settings
First, configure the vendor credentials in the interface settings.
Instructions:
Navigate to Admin → Vendors → Manage Interface Settings
Confirm the Payscore vendor is enabled on the backend (via support)
Go to the Data Providers tab
Enter the credentials provided by Payscore
Save your changes
This step allows TazWorks to communicate securely with Payscore.
Step 2: Add Payscore as a Vendor
Next, create the vendor profile inside TazWorks.
Instructions:
Navigate to Admin → Vendors → Manage Vendors
Click Add New Vendor
Enter the required basic vendor information
Click Save
After saving, additional configuration options will become available.
Step 3: Configure Searches
You will now link the appropriate searches to the Payscore vendor.
Instructions:
Inside the vendor profile, click the Searches tab at the top
Click the Searches dropdown
Select all searches that should apply to Payscore
Open each selected search individually
Set the interface type to Embedded Interface
Choose Payscore from the Data Provider dropdown
Click Save
This ensures verification workflows are embedded directly into your TazWorks process.
Step 4: Configure Vendor Routing
Vendor routing determines when Payscore is triggered during the screening process.
Instructions:
Navigate to Admin → Vendors → Manage Vendor Routing
Confirm that vendor and search setup (Steps 2 and 3) are complete
Select the search type:
“Employment Verification Other”
Rename the search to:
Automated Income Verification
Click Add
Select the Payscore vendor configured earlier
Click Save
This step ensures verification requests are properly routed to Payscore.
Step 5: Start Placing Orders
Once configuration is complete:
Your team can begin placing orders as usual within TazWorks
Payscore will handle the automated income verification workflow based on your routing setup
No separate manual request process is required outside of TazWorks
Important Notes
Backend vendor enablement by support is required before setup
Credentials must be entered under the Data Providers tab
Searches must be set to Embedded Interface for proper functionality
Vendor routing must be configured for “Employment Verification Other” (renamed to Automated Income Verification)
