Export a CSV for your payroll team to import into Taavi. Generating the file in Begin does not upload it to Taavi.
Prepare the export
1
Enable Taavi
Open Settings → Integrations → Taavi and turn on the header switch. This file export needs
no API credentials.
2
Check employee codes
Give each person the Payroll export code Taavi uses, on their
profile. A person without an export code is left out of
the file.
3
Map the hours
Open Field mappings. Edit the values you need, set their Export code, and turn on
Include in export. New configurable mappings start off.
4
Include absences if needed
Enable Absences in Setup and map the time-off policies to the codes Taavi expects.


Choose what payroll receives
Leave Include unconfirmed hours off to use approved hours only. Rejected and cancelled hours are always excluded, even when this setting is on. Add only the hour categories your Taavi import is configured to accept. A mapping can apply a Multiplier, Rounding method, Rounding precision, or Skip zero values. Use these only when your payroll import requires that transformation; they change the values exported.Download and import
Open Export, choose the month and any people, location or department filters, then run the export. When the run finishes, download its file from the history and import it into Taavi. Check errors and skipped records before treating the file as a complete month. If no field mappings are enabled, fix the mappings before exporting again. Taavi objects is a separate catalogue entry. It cannot run yet, so use the working Taavi integration described here.Next
