Switch payroll systems for travel and expense exports

Modified on Wed, 7 Oct at 12:42 PM

Update the export setup and wage types when your organization changes payroll systems.

If your organization is switching payroll systems, you must update the export setup in Simployer. This often requires changes to both the export setup and the wage types. In some cases, multiple export setups must remain active during a transition period. We therefore recommend contacting Simployer before making these changes.


Why should you contact Simployer before changing the travel and expense export setup?

The travel and expense export setup is a central part of the integration between Simployer and the payroll system. An incorrect configuration can create export files that cannot be imported or cause wage types to be mapped incorrectly.

A Simployer consultant can help you:

  • Select the correct export setup for the new payroll system
  • Create or update wage types where necessary
  • Configure a transition period if exports must be sent to both the previous and the new payroll systems
  • Test the export before it is used in production

Contact Simployer at support@simployer.com for a safe and smooth transition. We will assess whether the support team can handle the request or whether a consultant should be involved.


How to update the travel and expense export setup and wage types yourself

If your organization wants to make the changes:

  1. Go to Administration → Export → Travel and Expenses Export Type.
  2. Select the export setup your organization uses and change it to the new payroll system.
  3. Go to Accounting → Wage Types in the main menu on the left.
  4. Edit the wage types so they contain the correct values for the new payroll system.

We recommend submitting a request to support@simployer.com when changing wage types, the travel and expense export setup, or both.
