Set Up a Comdata Payroll Card Account

Users who can set up Comdata payroll card accounts are payroll administrators, system administrators, or implementation consultants.

Before You Begin: Make sure you have a Comdata Account Number before you start the process of setting up a Comdata payroll card account in Dayforce.

After you have enabled the use of Comdata payroll cards for the organization, you can set up the Comdata payroll card account or accounts used to pay employees.

To set up a Comdata payroll card account:

1. Go to Payroll Setup > Bank Accounts.
2. Click the Payroll Card Accounts tab.
3. Click Add to create a blank account record.
4. In the General section, complete the following fields:
   1. Enter a name and, optionally, a description for the card.
   2. Enter the account number provided by Comdata that is associated with the payroll card account in the Account Number field.
   3. (Optional) Enter a reference code for the payroll card in the Reference Code field.
5. In the Card Details section, in either the Personal Payroll Card section or the Instant Issue Payroll Card section, complete the following fields:
   1. In the Card Type field, enter the card type using the format provided to you by Comdata.
   2. In the Product Code field, enter the code for the card using the format provided to you by Comdata. This code is used to define the card type. For example, CDN_NONSEC_OVN, where CDN indicates Comdata, NONSEC indicates Instant Issue, and OVN indicates an overnight delivery card.
6. Go to Payroll Setup > Check Templates and ensure that the Exclude payroll card accounts from disbursements checkbox is cleared for any of the check templates that you will use to pay employees.
