How To: Import Time (External)
Companies that use the UKG TLM module will use the Sync Time step to import data from TLM into Payroll. Companies that want to import information from Excel or another external timekeeping system can use the Import Time (External) step.
Navigate to the Import Time (External) step under Processing
Click the View Payroll Batches link.
To import a file into the Regular Payroll batch, click the Import File icon
- Select the file be imported.
- The data must align to the standard Import Template (Regular) in vertical format or the Import Template (Columnar) in horizontal format.
- The import template can be downloaded in this step.
- To override data that was previously imported, select Delete Batch Records First. If a file is uploaded multiple times, the data will not be overridden, but added to existing records.
Click Ok to run the import
If an error is generated from the import, no lines will be imported and the error must be resolved. To resolve the error, review the error message and make the necessary updates to the import file or the employee record.
Once the file is updated, repeat the import process until the file is imported with no errors and the final result is Done.
