Export Paychecks to a Text File

If your enterprise uses a third party to process paychecks, you can export checks created in DPS to a text file, and then import the data into your third-party software. You must perform the export step for each bank code you are processing.

To export checks to a text file:

1. Display the Payment Printing and Numbering form.
2. To select the bank for which to export checks, click the appropriate row in the upper grid.
3. Click Preview Payments on the toolbar of the lower grid. The checks included in the bank file display in a preview page window. Review check information.
4. Assign check numbers.
5. Click Export to Text.
6. On the Download Payments to a Text File dialog box, click Create File.
7. On the File Download dialog box, open the file or save it to a location on your computer or network.
8. Post payroll.

You can send the exported text file to your third-party software to complete check processing.
