Your Ceridian Dayforce username is structured using your first and last name as they appear on your official employment records.
Understanding Your Dayforce Username
To access your Ceridian Dayforce account, your username adheres to a specific convention designed for straightforward identification. This format ensures consistency across all employee accounts.
Username Structure and Format
The standard format for your Dayforce username combines your first name and your last name. Here are the precise guidelines:
- First Letter Capitalization: The first letter of your first name is capitalized.
- Last Name Capitalization: The first letter of your last name is also capitalized.
- Separator: A period (
.) is used to separate your first name from your last name. - Official Name Source: Crucially, the name used must exactly match how it appears on your current pay statements to ensure correct system recognition.
Example of Username Format:
| Component | Detail | Example |
|---|---|---|
| First Name | Initial Cap | John |
| Last Name | Initial Cap | Doe |
| Username | First.Last | John.Doe |
For instance, if your name on your pay statement is Maria Sanchez, your username would be Maria.Sanchez. If your name includes a middle initial or multiple last names, always refer to your official pay statements for the exact format your employer uses, as this dictates your correct username.
Tips for Retrieving Your Username
If you are uncertain about the exact spelling or capitalization of your name as registered in the system, consider these steps:
- Consult Your Pay Statement: Your most recent pay statement is the definitive source for your official name as it is recorded for payroll and HR purposes.
- Contact Support: Reach out to your HR department or manager, who can provide your accurate registered name and assist with any login difficulties.
