Once you have set up your Pay Types, Locations, Cost Centres (if applicable) and Employees, you are now ready to allocate General Ledger Account Numbers to these emport items.
Click on Company from the drop-down list, select e-Port™, then select "Configure PAYRUN data export file".

The e-Port™ - "Exporting PAYRUN Data Only . . ." screen will appear.

Select the relevant export format and click OK.

After you have setup up Cost Centres, Locations, Pay Types and Employees you can return to the "Configure PAYRUN data export file" to setup accounts.
Click on the relevant Sage Pastel Interface button


Each time you enter the Sage Pastel GL Interface, you will be asked if you have added or deleted Pay Rates, Allowances, Deductions, Locations or Cost Centers. Click Yes for these items to be added to the GL accounts list. As this can take some time it is advisable to action this when you don't need to use e-PayDay® for some time.


Once the Sage Pastel GL Account list appears you can fill in the GL accounts against the Cost Centre/Location Combinations for the 6 tabs; Pay Rates 1, Leave 2, Termination 3, Allowances 4, Deductions 5 and Totals 6.

Use Auto Fill Account Options to apply the same GL account number to same Description, Cost Centre, Department or combinations of them.
