Export Timesheets to ADP

Use the Export Timesheets to ADP screen to produce the external paydata file that carries data to the ADP system.

The external paydata file is a flat data file in ADP format with a single header record, followed by paydata records. If you selected 1 in the ADP Version drop-down list, one or two trailer records follow the paydata records, depending on the data sent.

The external paydata file is broken into batches. For each new batch, there is an additional header, additional paydata records, and a trailer (if you selected 1 in the ADP Version drop-down list). If more than one batch is necessary, the batch ID is incremented in each header record.

You can establish multiple ADP timesheet transfer parameters in this screen. When you save the information, you are asked for a parameter name to identify the entry.

Before executing this application, set up mapping information to match Costpoint pay types and accounts with ADP field IDs using the Manage ADP Mapping Values screen or the Manage ADP 2.5 Mapping Values screen, depending on which ADP version you are using.

Before running this screen, please see this ADP Transfer Overview.

Note:

This is separately licensed product for the current release of Deltek Costpoint.

There are two ways to work with export files in Costpoint:

  • You can export the file to an Alternate File Location.
  • You can export the file to the Costpoint database.

If you decide to use the first option, click in the File Location field to select the alternate file location to which you want to save the file. If you choose the second option, leave the File Location field blank when you export the file.
