How do I bulk import multiple payments/deductions in a single transaction?

Modified on Sat, 7 Dec at 5:56 PM

Cintra Cloud allows users to easily add one-off payments or deductions for employees and associate them with a position. There are two ways to add one-off payments/deductions in Cintra Cloud:

Singular payments/deductions using the wizard.
Bulk importing multiple payments/deductions in a single transaction using the bulk import tool.

Note

You can only add a one-off payment or deduction for the current period. You can enter previous period effective dates for the one-off payment and deduction. Cintra Cloud will then generate the correct rates of pay based on the date range you have entered.

To bulk import multiple payment/deduction in a single transaction

If you need to add multiple one-off payments or deductions to your employees' payroll, you can use the bulk import feature to streamline the process.

Here are the steps to follow:

Log in to Cintra Cloud.
Go to the Payroll page and click on the One-off payments & deductions tile.
Click the Add one-off payments & deductions button.
Select the Bulk Import tab and download the template by clicking Download Template if you haven't already.
Fill out the one-off payment spreadsheet with the required information, and ensure it's ready to be imported into your payroll. Keep in mind that the import needs to pass validation checks before it can be imported.
To upload the spreadsheet, you can drag a copy of the .xslx file into the upload box or click 'browse this device' to find the file on your computer. Once uploaded, Cintra Cloud will validate your data. If there are no issues, you'll see a message confirming that the import has been successful.
Click the Complete Import button to import the one-off payments into your payroll. Once the import is complete, you'll see a message confirming the payments have been imported.
If there are any validation issues, you'll see error messages on the Add one-off payments page. Correct the errors in your spreadsheet and re-import it. Cintra Cloud will re-validate your data.

Note:

If any validation issues are displayed on the Add one-off payments page, these errors need to be corrected in your spreadsheet. Once corrected, you need to re-import your spreadsheet and Cintra Cloud will re-validate your data.
