Set up your integration
- Ensure you have Administrator access in Planday with rights over Payroll settings (salary codes, departments, export formats).
- In Planday: Navigate to Settings → Payroll → Export, choose the file format “PAXml 2.0” (or the version your payroll system supports).
- Map salary codes in Planday so that they align with what your payroll system expects under PAXml (e.g., OB codes, supplements).
- Perform a test export: extract a small set of employee data, import into payroll system, check for any mapping errors or discrepancies.
- Roll out to full pay-cycle: once the file format, codes and departments are confirmed, use the export in your live payroll run.
