Exporting Payroll Data from this Application to the Generic Payroll Interface

This topic describes the process of exporting payroll data from CloudSuite Industrial to the Generic Payroll interface.

Generate Payroll Records

Before you export payroll data to be processed by the Generic Payroll interface, you must generate payroll transaction records for each employee through standard CloudSuite Industrial payroll functions.

Use the Generate Payroll form to create payroll records. Note that the Employee Type field should be set to H (hourly) because the system does not export data for salaried employees.

You can view and update the generated records in the Payroll for Pay Period form.

You can modify employee hours by pay type in the Payroll Distribution form and compare wages distribution with logged hours in the Payroll Distribution/Log report.

Export Payroll Data

Use the Export Payroll Information to EPI form to specify a range of unposted payroll transaction records by department and employee. The form draws data from these records and creates a file suitable for import into another payroll application. For information about the structure of the file, see About Data Exported from this Application to the Generic Payroll Interface.
