Description

Use this page to review and import data from an external provider.

...

If the uploaded data is acceptable, click the green import button  to import all of the data into InPay. Each import format will then be validated and imported into InPay if it passes validation. If there are any errors on the files, these may be viewed by clicking the import status. External imports may be attempted to be imported any number of times until they are successful. Bear in mind that after each import attempt, the previous attempts messages will be removed. If some files are successful in the import, they will be attempted to be imported again

Errors

No External Id in InPay

When an employee is added manually, the ExternalId column (external providers employee Id) must be populated. 

If it’s not known at the time, it can be updated afterwards. It must be updated before the import is run. 

The ExternalId can be inserted in the Employee Starter import format and updated in the Employee Basic import format. 

To fix, request the employee’s ID from the external provider and update using the Employee Basic import format. It will then be possible to download the zip file and import using the Import page.

Multiple payments with the same amount

This can be an issue with the data from the external company. This may require them to send a new submission without duplicates.
