The Payroll Export menu provides a selection of available file exports that can be created in a range of formats. These files can be used by other software programs as the basis for importing or processing. The export formats available cover payroll interfaces, files used by badge creator software and common file formats such as comma separated values that can be opened in programs like Notepad or Microsoft Excel.

The selection screen for the exports is the same as that used when running reports. Some of the export formats are similar to some of the report formats. For example, the CSV export files can be opened in Excel and would appear to be the same as the Excel based reports.

The main differences between exports and reports are:

  • The exported file overwrites any previous file created by the same export.
  • The exported files are not displayed to the user after being created, unlike reports that open automatically in Adobe Reader or Excel.
  • Reports are created in a format to be human readable, whereas the exports are in a format designed to be read by software.
