WFM UK: Payroll: Data Imports in the Payroll Module

Overview

The Payroll module's Data Imports functionality allows administrators to manage and apply payroll data in bulk, removing the need to make changes on a record-by-record basis. Using structured CSV file uploads, payments and deductions can be applied across multiple employees in a single operation, saving time and reducing the risk of manual error.

Each import type is designed around a specific area of payroll data, ensuring that employee payroll records can be updated accurately and efficiently without the need to process each entry individually. All imports follow a consistent upload process and enforce the same validation rules that apply when making changes directly within the system, ensuring data integrity is maintained throughout.

The articles linked below provide full guidance for each available import type, including template requirements, field definitions, validation rules, and step-by-step upload instructions.
