Running payroll integrations in Begin Running payroll integrations in Begin Run payroll from the provider’s Sync or Export tab after setting up its connection and mappings. A sync sends data to the provider; an export produces a file you still need to import there.

Run and check a month

1

Choose the period

Open your integration and select the month. The period follows your workspace’s timezone.
2

Narrow the run

Use the people, location or department filters if you only want part of the company. Check any provider-specific options, such as Rivilė’s hour source and break handling.
3

Start the run

Choose Run now. If it cannot run, check the explanation: the integration may be off, credentials may be missing, or the catalogue entry may not support runs yet.
4

Read the result

Wait for the run to end as Success, Partly done, Warning or Failed. Review processed, failed and skipped records and open the errors. For a file export, download the result from History and import it into payroll.
Run a month, check the result and control automatic payroll transfers. Run a month, check the result and control automatic payroll transfers.

Resolve incomplete results

Warning means records were skipped and need attention, even if other records went through. Partly done means some records succeeded and others failed. Read the errors before repeating the entire run: sending again is not a universal undo or replacement operation. Payroll people who are not in Begin do not cause a warning or count as skipped records. Employee and contract imports can still list their unmatched counts in the run details. Unchanged import values do not cause a warning either. Check personal and export codes, enabled mappings, payroll document types, and whether the hours are approved. Credentials can be replaced in Setup. Saved secret values are not shown again. Pay attention to the unit: payroll files use decimal hours, so 7.5 means seven hours and thirty minutes. It is not 7 hours and 50 minutes.

Control automatic runs

Open Schedule, turn on Sync on a schedule, and choose Frequency. The page shows the next run; automatic runs use your workspace’s timezone. A scheduled Taavi or Rivilė run also leaves a file in History, but nobody imports it for you: download it and import it into payroll each month. Automatic runs select the month containing yesterday’s date in that timezone. On the first day of a month, that means the previous month. They do not reuse the month and filters you picked for a manual run. A scheduled slot is skipped while an earlier run is still going, and a run that makes no progress for 30 minutes is marked Failed. Turn off Sync on a schedule to stop automatic runs. Turn off the integration’s header switch to disable the connection. Removing credentials also disables it and stops scheduled syncs until new credentials are saved. To start over, use Remove in the Danger zone on the Sync tab: it deletes the connection, credentials and field mappings and keeps the run history. None of these actions recalls data already sent to payroll.
