Post expense claims to Payroll

Use this if you have imported resources from Sage Payroll, and you want to post the details of their expense claim transactions to Payroll, so that you can generate payments.

You can specify the criteria for the expense claim data to post, and select which Sage Payroll companies it will be posted to. Only expense claims that have been posted to Financials or Project Accounting can be sent to Sage Payroll.

The system will record that the expense claim has been posted to Payroll. To prevent accidental duplicate postings, you cannot post the same claim again.

Note: You can print a report on pay and hours worked for each resource (see Project Accounting > Reports > Timesheets & Expense Claims > Payroll Report (by Resource).
