Payslip files required by Payflow

To support the Payslips process, the payroll service provider must deliver the following files to the SFTP server. Login credentials are supplied by Sage People.

  • A single PDF file for each payslip.

    If your organization has 1000 employees to be notified by payslip, the provider must supply 1000 PDF payslips for each payroll run. Files cannot be supplied in compressed format.

    The content of the payslip is completely in the control of the payroll provider - Sage People provides the delivery mechanism. Each payslip file must have the .pdf file extension to enable it to be opened.

  • A single CSV file for each payroll run.

    The CSV file contains a header line defining the content, and one line for each employee payslip. Each employee line contains the information you want to appear on WX for the employee and the name of the associated payslip pdf file. As a minimum the file needs two fields for each employee:

    • The unique employee number.
    • The file name of the employee's payslip.

Note

All PDF payslip files must be delivered to the SFTP server before the CSV file - the dedicated Payflow Service is triggered when the CSV file is delivered to the SFTP server.
