External payroll file setup
When you receive payroll information in electronic format from an employer, it is necessary to use this program to in order for Curtains to import that information. Firstly, you must establish the format in which your payroll file has been created. There are 3 different formats from which Curtains can import from:
- Text file - A simple text file created with "fixed length" columns.
- CSV file - A simple text file where the information is seperated by commas. (",")
- Excel file - A Microsoft Excel document where the information is separated into different columns

You can create/amend an external file setup code simply by entering a number in the "file number" box.
You can also scroll through the existing external file setup codes by clicking the
and
buttons.
* It is recommended that give your external setup code the same number as the pay run it relates to.
