Payroll Export adds up each staff member's hours for a pay period and writes them in the layout your payroll provider imports. Go to Staff in the left sidebar and open the Payroll tab.
Generating an Export
- 1Choose the Pay period: Last week, Last 2 weeks, This pay period or Custom start and end dates.
- 2Choose the Format: Spreadsheet (CSV), ADP, Gusto or Paychex. Spreadsheet (CSV) opens in Excel or Google Sheets and works with any payroll service; the others match that company's import.
- 3Choose Rounding: No rounding, Nearest quarter hour (0.25) or Nearest tenth hour (0.1).
- 4Click Generate Export, then Download. Past files stay under Export History for re-download.
What Is in the File
- Regular hours from clock-ins and clock-outs in the period.
- Overtime: hours above 40 in a week.
- PTO hours from approved time-off requests in the period.
- One line per staff member, in the column order your provider expects.
Approve entries under Timesheets before you export. The file includes every completed entry either way, and a notice after the export lists any that were not approved or have no clock-out. An entry with no clock-out contributes no hours.
Payroll Export is included in the Standard plan and higher.
