How do generate Payday Files

1. Open the Pay Status form
2. Click the PR Seq tab
3. Click the “Create File” button on the row of the Pay Sequence you want to generate Payday files.

If the pay is open when you click "Create File" button, the system will only create "draft" Employment Information file.

If the pay is closed when you click the "Create File" button, the system will create both a Employee Details File and an Employment Information file.

If the files fail to generate go to Company Settings, check what the IR file folder path is then make sure it exists in your environment.

File names

Both the EI and ED file names are hard coded.

EI files are formed as:

• Employer IRD number_EIReturn_PaymentDate_PaySequence.csv; or
• Employer IRD number_EIReturn _PaymentDate_PaySequence_DRAFT.csv

ED filed are formed as:

• Employer IRD number_EDReturn_PaySequence.csv

Example:

123456789_EIReturn_20190407_2345.csv or 123456789_EIReturn_20190407_2345_DRAFT.csv

123456789_EDReturn_2345.CSV

How do I check my EI data?

The Validate Pay For Payday run command is accessible from the Payroll folder on the PayGlobal tree as well as via the Global List (ALT + G).
