Answer
Exporting Lightning Payroll Data
Lightning Payroll does not provide a direct exporter to competing payroll platforms. The product is designed as a self contained payroll system rather than a migration tool into other payroll products.
What you can export
You can still export useful data from Lightning Payroll Desktop in several ways:
- General Ledger exports for accounting software.
- Employee Report Builder exports for employee level data.
- Pay Report Builder exports for pay history and payroll analysis.
- CSV based custom reports for review, archive, or further manipulation in Excel.
If your goal is to move figures into another finance system, the General Ledger and reporting tools are usually the best starting point.
If you need help extracting a particular set of payroll data, contact support and describe what fields you need.
