Payroll Export

The Payroll Export tab in the Hours workspace turns approved hours into a CSV for your payroll workflow. Direct payroll integrations are on the roadmap; CSV exports are available today, and you should validate each provider's import requirements before relying on a new template.

Set up your provider

1. Open Organization settings → Hours → Payroll handoff.
2. Choose your Provider — QuickBooks Payroll, Paychex, or Generic CSV.
3. Configure the provider settings:
   • External company ID and Default department (if your provider requires them).
   • Earning codes: Regular code, Overtime code, Double-time code — these map Teamcrest hour types to your provider's pay codes.

After configuring the provider, generate files from Hours → Payroll export.

Map employees

Under Mapped employees, connect each Teamcrest member to their employee ID in your payroll system. Unmapped employees are flagged so you can fix them before exporting.

Run an export

1. Pick the Start date and End date for the pay period.
2. Generate the export and download the CSV.
3. Import the file into your payroll provider.

Recent exports keeps a history of what you've generated, so you can re-download or audit past runs.

QuickBooks note

The QuickBooks Payroll option produces a QuickBooks-style CSV with employee, payroll item, hours, customer, class, service item, and date columns. Its compatibility with every QuickBooks Payroll or Workforce configuration is being validated. Test an export with your accounting team before using it in a live payroll cycle.
