Resolve Issues with Quick Entry Imports

This topic applies to quick entries in Payroll > Data Entry and Payroll > Pay Run Management.

If you have imported quick entries for a pay run and there are errors in the import that prevent you from committing the pay run, you can fix many of these errors in the Quick Entry sub-tab without having to update and reimport the import file for the pay run.

For example, say you have loaded a pay run and are viewing the Quick Entry sub-tab and the Problems panel shows the message "There is no earning, deduction or tax code associated with this record." You can click the error message and the corresponding entry in the list of quick entries is highlighted and selected. You can then click in the Code column, select the appropriate earning code, definition code, or tax code for the entry, and save the updated entry. After you have resolved all errors, you can calculate the pay run and proceed with payroll processing.

To resolve issues with quick entry imports:

1. Go to Payroll.
2. Click either the Pay Run Management tab and load a pay run, or click the Data Entry tab.
3. Click the Quick Entry sub-tab.
4. Load the quick entry import you want to work with:
   1. Click Import > Import Items to import a file, or
   2. Click Import > Import History, and select a previously imported file.
5. If the Problems panel shows error messages, click individual error messages to jump to the problem record in the Quick Entry sub-tab.
6. Correct each entry according to its error message.
7. Click Save.
