Cleared to work, then straight into Astute.
Astute Payroll runs your timesheets, pay rules, payroll and invoicing. Canyou checks every worker first, work rights, licences, forms and signatures, then sends them into Astute with their profile, tax, bank and super details, so payroll never retypes a thing.
Work rights and licences checked before the first timesheet
Sent to Astute in one click once they’re cleared to work
Synced again to update the same Astute employee, never duplicated
Integrations
Canyou collects. Your systems receive.

Placed
Your consultant places the worker in your ATS, whichever one you use, and they start onboarding in Canyou.
Checked and onboarded
Canyou checks work rights and collects licences, tax, super, bank details, contracts and the Fair Work Information Statement, all from one link.
Sent to Astute
Once they’re cleared to work, your team syncs them in one click and Canyou creates the employee in Astute, or updates the record they’re linked to.
Kept up to date
Sync again from Canyou when details change, like new bank details, and Canyou keeps watching visas and tickets.
Sync
Tax, bank and super, already in Astute
Canyou collects super during onboarding, retrieving the worker’s stapled fund from the ATO where needed, and checks every field before anything is sent. Their fund, tax declaration and bank account arrive in their Astute profile, ready for their first pay run. See how Canyou works for labour hire and recruitment.
Personal and contact details, tax declaration, bank and super
Synced in one click once they’re cleared to work
Each worker stays linked to one Astute employee, so there are no duplicates
Work rights
Checked, not just tracked
Astute shows which employees are on visas and when they expire. Canyou checks work rights with the Department of Home Affairs before the worker reaches Astute, keeps the result on file and reminds you before a visa expires. See how work-rights checks work.
Checked with the Department of Home Affairs
Visa conditions and expiry kept on the worker’s record
Tickets
The right ticket for every placement
A labourer needs a White Card, a forklift driver a high-risk work licence, a teacher’s aide a WWCC. Each position in Canyou asks for the tickets that role needs, and reminds the worker before one lapses. See licence and certification tracking.
Tickets collected per role during onboarding
Reminders before a licence or ticket expires
Paperwork
Contracts signed before the first shift
Contracts, policies and the Fair Work Information Statement go out in the same onboarding flow, with e-signatures, and an audit-ready record is kept for every worker. See electronic signatures in Canyou.
E-signatures from the worker and your team
ISO audit-ready records
Astute + Canyou
Astute tracks expiry dates. Canyou checks work rights.
Astute already has onboarding: email reminders, online tax file declarations and visibility of visa and ticket expiry dates. Canyou doesn’t replace any of Astute’s pay and bill. It adds the checks and paperwork that clear a worker to work before they reach Astute, then keeps watching.
Astute handles…
Timesheets for multiple jobs, projects and shifts, with approvers
The pay rules engine: time of day, day of week, shift duration
Payroll, with Single Touch Payroll lodged to the ATO and SuperStream
Client invoicing with your own templates, credits and statements
The employee portal for tax, super, timesheets, expenses and leave
Canyou adds…
Work rights checked, not just recorded
Your team checks each worker’s visa with the Department of Home Affairs, the result stays on file, and you get notice before the visa expires.
The right tickets for each role
White Cards, high-risk work licences and WWCCs are requested by position and tracked, with reminders before they lapse.
Contracts and the Fair Work Information Statement
Sent in the same flow as the tax and super forms, signed with e-signatures and kept as an audit-ready record.
Workflows for every kind of placement
Each position carries its own forms, documents, inductions and training videos with questions, and crews can start from a QR code on site.
Super stapling before pay day
Canyou retrieves a worker’s stapled fund from the ATO during onboarding and checks it before anything is sent to Astute.
One link, no app
Workers onboard from a link sent by SMS or email, in their phone’s browser, before their first shift.

Once a worker is cleared to work in Canyou, Canyou creates them as an employee in Astute Payroll with their profile, tax, bank and super details. Work rights, licences, contracts and the Fair Work Information Statement are all handled in Canyou first, so payroll doesn’t retype or chase anything.
What data syncs between Canyou and Astute Payroll?
The worker’s full employee profile, including personal and contact details, their tax declaration, bank account and super fund. The sync is one way, from Canyou to Astute: Canyou doesn’t read or change timesheets, pay runs or invoices.
Will it create duplicate employees in Astute?
No. After the first sync, Canyou saves the worker’s Astute employee ID, so later syncs update the same employee. If a worker is already in Astute, enter their Astute employee ID on their Canyou profile before you sync and Canyou updates that record instead.
When are workers sent to Astute?
When your team chooses. Once a worker is cleared to work, an admin clicks Sync to Astute Payroll on their profile, checks the details and sends them. If their details change later, for example new bank details, sync them again to update Astute.
How do we connect Astute Payroll to Canyou?
Ask Astute Payroll support to turn on API access and give you an API username and password. A Canyou admin enters those with your Astute portal address in Canyou settings. It takes a few minutes, and Australian support can walk you through it.
Does it work with our ATS?
Yes. Canyou sits between your ATS and Astute, whichever ATS you use. Placed workers are onboarded and cleared to work in Canyou, then sent into Astute, so payroll never retypes their details.
Does Canyou replace Astute’s onboarding?
It goes further. Astute collects tax file declarations online and shows visa and ticket expiry dates. Canyou checks work rights with the Department of Home Affairs, collects the right tickets for each role, and sends contracts and the Fair Work Information Statement for e-signature, then sends the finished employee into Astute.
Clear every placement to work before the first shift
Work rights checked with Home Affairs, licences tracked to expiry and payroll details collected, at about 15 minutes per worker.
