Import Additional Payroll Statements

Supporting payroll statements created outside of Dayforce can be imported and displayed in the Statements > Additional Statements screen in People and in the employee self-service feature.

Before You Begin: Set up the role feature access needed to import additional payroll statements. See Additional Payroll Statements in People.

To import additional payroll statements:

  1. Create a CSV file that contains the metadata about the files you're importing. For more details about the required metadata you need to include in the CSV file, download the Dayforce Interface Specifications and see the Dayforce Document Import Specification document.
  2. In the secure FTP site provided by your Dayforce administrator, copy and paste the PDF files into the DocumentImport subfolder in the Import folder. See Additional Payroll Statements in People.
  3. To initiate the import process, upload the CSV file using one of the following methods:
    • Make a POST Documents Import API request. The API call initiates the import process for each individual file name included in the POST request that is also found in the DocumentImport folder. For more details about the POST Documents Import API request, see the API documentation on the Dayforce Developer Network.
    • Import the file using Document Import in Document Management.

After the additional payroll statements have been successfully imported, the files are shown in the Document Explorer in Document Management.
