Previous pageReturn to chapter overviewNext page

61.7.1 On the Home screen click "Finance" and select "Accounting Link" to open the "Accounting Link" screen.

 

1) In the "Group" list, select "Link PowerPay".

2) In the "Name" list, select "PowerPay - Export Payroll Timesheets to PowerPay v..." (Select the appropriate version number and country)

3) Press the "Preview" button (or you can double-click the Report Name).

4) In the "Report Dialogue Box", enter the Timesheet date range.

5) Press the "Preview" button. A report is now opened in preview mode, listing Employees with total hours for each Pay Type worked during the selected period. This is what will be exported.

6) Press "Close" on the menu bar.

7) If the data shown on the report is what you want to export, then select "Yes" when you are asked if you want to export. Otherwise select "No" and change the criteria. You may receive an error message if you have not setup "Accounting Link" properly.

8) If the export was successful, you will find a text file in the directory you specified in "Export Path" in Setup Latitude. It is called "LatiPPExport.txt".

9) Run a PowerPay import routine to import this text file. Refer to your PowerPay User Guide on how to import text files into PowerPay. Please note that this file is a tab-delimited text file and the first record is a Header Record.
