Re-exporting a payroll

A payroll administrator can re-export a payroll if the original payroll close completed successfully, but the export file became lost, or corrupted after the payroll close. In this situation, the Time and Attendance module assumes the payroll closed properly. Re-exporting is only possible for payrolls that contain complete pay groups or for payrolls from the previous pay period.

On-cycle and off-cycle exports can be reset and re-executed through the standard Payroll Close Wizard. See Resetting on-cycle payroll close status and Resetting off-cycle payroll close status.

  1. Select Maintenance > Payroll Settings > Payroll Close > Re-export Payroll.
  2. Select the pay groups using the Select Pay Groups lookup.
  3. Click Next. The Re-Export Payroll page is displayed.
  4. Under Advanced Options, select whether to consolidate the pay groups into one file where possible.
    Pay groups must share the same Payroll Export Task XML mapping to have their data consolidated into one export file.
  5. Click Export Now.
    After the process is completed, a confirmation message is displayed.
  6. Click OK to exit.
    The payroll has now been re-exported.
A re-export also schedules an Asynchronous Processing Task to be run. After the task completes, an e-mail confirmation is sent out listing the employees and payroll groups that were successfully exported.
