In the Payroll Contributions screen of Payroll Data Export, each of the sections in the Pay Group Options tab should be filled out as needed, depending on the specific payroll export requirements for your organization. As a best practice, when you set up the payroll data export configuration, filter out content that you do not need to include in the export using the various filters provided.
| Field or Control | Description |
|---|---|
| Exclusion Options | |
| Excluded Pay Groups | Select one or more pay groups to exclude from the export output. No selection includes all pay groups. |
| Multi Pay Group Export Options | |
| Multi Pay Group Export |
Select the checkbox if you do not want to produce a data export file on payroll commit. This creates a single file for all pay groups for a pay period at a specified day and as part of a scheduled background job. Important: You must set up a scheduled job if you’re using multi-pay-group export. |
| Master Pay Group | Select a master pay group if you selected the Multi Pay Group Export checkbox. This pay group cannot be one of the pay groups that is excluded. |
| Look Back Based On | Select either Commit Data or Pay Date. This is the look back parameter for the master pay group. |
| Look Back Days |
Enter the number of days (all days, not just business days) starting from the look back based on the date parameter of the master pay group. You can enter a number between 0 and 120. For example, you could enter 10 to indicate that 10 days from the Pay Date of the Master Pay Group, all runs of all the selected pay groups will be include in the file. |
