Run Offcycle Exports to Payroll

Before You Begin: If you don’t see the Offcycle button in the toolstrip, Dayforce wasn’t configured to perform offcycle pay exports or you don’t have access. Contact your system administrator.

To run an offcycle pay export:

1. Go to Pay Admin Checklist.
2. Click Offcycle. The Offcycle Pay Export Wizard opens.
3. Note: If you’re running the wizard with Dayforce Payroll installed, Dayforce shows the Select a pay group drop-down list above the choices of offcycle types. The Offcycle Pay Export Wizard functionality is slightly different. See Run Offcycle Exports to Dayforce Payroll.
3. Select which type of offcycle pay export you want to run:
   • Pay Adjustments From Prior Periods: Pay out any retroactive adjustments that exist for your employees. See Retroactive Adjustments.
   • Pay Out To Date: Pay out any employees who were terminated in the middle of a pay cycle. This includes any pay from pay adjustments, retroactive adjustments, or timesheet hours entered during the current pay cycle.
4. Click Next. Dayforce shows filter criteria that you can use to search for the employees that you want to export.
5. Select the checkbox next to the employees that you want to export. If necessary, you can then search again for a different employee. Dayforce saves your selections, even if you apply a different filter.
6. Click Next. Dayforce shows the employees that you selected.
7. Click Next.
8. (Optional) If you want to review the payroll data before transmitting it, select Test Transmit and click Next. Dayforce generates the payroll export file. Browse to the export directory and open the file for review. The location for this file depends on how Dayforce is configured. For more information, contact your system administrator.
9. Click Transmit and then click Next.
10. Click Finish.
