Exporting ADP Pay Details

Troubleshooting Tips

 

If you use ADP (Automatic Data Processing, Inc.) as your third party payroll provider, you can generate a file to send to ADP.

 

Before generating a file, make sure you have set up the parameters in the ADP export configs section and have identified the config (short for 'configuration') and ADP company code in either the default labor definitions or labor definitions.

Exporting ADP Pay Detail

Identify the time records you want to include in the export file by populating any of the following fields. Only the Export Ending Date field and at least one pay frequency is required.

 

1.Identify the records you want included in the export.

The fields available for identifying the time records to include in the export are:

 


Entity

To restrict the records to a specific entity, click on the magnifying glass icon, choose the entity from the grid and either double click on the entity or click the entity once and then click the OK button

Store Group 1

To select a defined store group, choose the group from the drop-down.

Store Group 2

To select a defined store group, choose the group from the drop-down.

Entity Filter

If entity filters are set up, you can choose one from the drop-down.

Export Ending Date

Identify the last date that should be included for the records you want to export.

Employee

If exporting records for a specific employee, choose them here by clicking on the magnifying glass icon and selecting their name from the grid.

Pay Frequencies

It is important to identify the pay frequency(ies) you want included.  Identify them by clicking in the corresponding blue box until a check appears.  You can choose one or more than one pay frequency.  Note that if you choose none, no records will be included for closing.

 

2.Once all applicable fields have been identified, click the OK button.

3.Save the files by writing them.  Note that a file will be produced for each entity.  You will need to save each one.

7.Indicate if you want to close the time entries identified for the export file by clicking either the Yes or No button.  Note that if you do not close the records, they will be available for future exports.  If not closed, you run the risk of exporting the data more than once.

8.Send the file(s) to ADP.

 

Troubleshooting Tips

1.Produce a file with headers and no data?

oMake sure all employees who should be included in the export have the correct staff type of 'Third Party PR Employee'.

oMake sure there are open records to be exported.  If the records are closed and they should be in the export, you will need to reopen time entry edits to change the export status.

oMake sure that the pay frequency(ies) for all employees who should be included in the export have been set and match the boxes checked when the export file is created.

2.Any time data is exported by generating a file or imported in to Compeat Payroll, only active employees are included.  If an employee is inactive and has time for which they have not been paid, create and print a Time Worked report for those days to present to the third party for payroll processing.
