BrightPay facilitates the importing of employee information in CSV format from Payroo.

If you are migrating to BrightPay, both employee and their mid-year pay information (if applicable) can be imported from Payroo into BrightPay Cloud using this import option.

As a new user, when you log into BrightPay, on the Welcome to BrightPay you will have a step-by-step guide on how to set up your information.

In order to export your data from Payroo to CSV file(s) please:

1. Log in to Payroo > Go to the Reports section > Employees and YTD Information (if applicable) can be exported from this menu.

2. To import the file, go to the Employees tab> Import & Export> Import/Update Employees from CSV File

3. Browse to the location of your CSV file, select it and press ‘Open’

4. Employee information contained within the CSV selected will now be displayed on screen.

You will need to match the headers to the applicable columns to ensure that the data is being imported into the correct fields.

5. When ready press Import.

Employees and their mid year totals to date (if applicable) will now be imported into BrightPay

Note:

This import option will only bring across employee information that is contained within the CSV file in question. 
 
Further manual entry may thus be required in each employee record for employee information that is not included in the CSV File.

Migration Checklist Cloud may assist you with the migration process and setup. 

Following the import, further employee information can be manually entered within 'Employees', if required. Alternatively, you may wish to update missing employee information from an additional CSV file.

It is also recommended that all employee details are reviewed before processing any payroll to ensure information imported in is correct and applicable for the tax year in question.

 
After reviewing your employee and employer information, simply click the 'Payroll' tab to commence processing payroll.
