Rivilė in Begin Rivilė in Begin Create the fixed-format Excel workbook used by Rivilė. Choose whether it carries actual or scheduled hours, then download it for import into Rivilė.

Set up Rivilė

1

Enable the export

Open Settings → Integrations → Rivilė and turn on the header switch. No API credentials are needed.
2

Check export codes

Check each person’s Payroll export code on their profile against the code used in Rivilė. A person without one still appears in the workbook with a blank code, so check the file rather than the count.
3

Review the format

Open Field mappings to see the fixed workbook columns. Their codes and layout are prescribed by the format.
To include absences, add a mapping for each time-off policy in Field mappings, enter its Export code, and enable Include in export. The fixed absence row alone does not map your policies. Export actual or scheduled hours in a Rivilė Excel workbook. Export actual or scheduled hours in a Rivilė Excel workbook.

Choose the hours

In Export, select the month. Under Data source, keep Actual worked time for payroll or choose Planned schedule for the roster. Subtract unpaid breaks is on by default; set it for each run deliberately. Leave Include unconfirmed hours off in Setup when exporting actual hours unless payroll should include work that has not been approved. Rejected and cancelled hours are always excluded, even when this setting is on.
Actual hours and scheduled hours answer different questions. Check the source before comparing a workbook with a timesheet total or a planned schedule.

Download the workbook

Filter the run to the people, locations or departments you need, then start the export. Download the finished workbook from the history and import it into Rivilė. The workbook includes employee identifiers and departments, work-hour categories and absences. Read skipped-record and error details before treating the download as complete. A downloadable file alone does not prove every requested person was included.
