Can I choose the columns in my payroll export?

Payroll, Payroll file, Your own columns lets you pick, order and rename payroll export columns, preview the first rows and save the layout; Standard CSV, Gusto, Viventium and QuickBooks Desktop files are in the same window.

Quick answer1 min readUpdated for AveeCare
Short answer

Yes. On the Payroll page, choose Payroll file, then Your own columns. Pick the columns you want, put them in order, rename any heading, check the first rows, and save the layout so it is there next time. The file holds the visits ready to pay in the period you are viewing.

Step by step

  1. Open Payroll and choose the period.
  2. Choose Payroll file.
  3. Choose the Your own columns card.
  4. Tick the columns, drag them into order and rename any heading.
  5. Check the first rows, save the layout with a name, and download the CSV.

Good to know

  • Other files: The same window has Standard CSV (every column), Gusto, Viventium and a QuickBooks Desktop file, plus ADP and Paychex when they are set up.
  • Only payable visits: Your own columns writes visits ready to pay. Standard CSV lists every visit in view.
  • Saved layouts: Apply a saved layout next time instead of picking columns again.
