Answer
Exporting Lightning Payroll Data to Another Accounting Program
At Lightning Payroll, we understand the need for seamless integration and data management across your financial systems. However, we currently do not offer a feature to directly export payroll data to competitor payroll applications. Doing so would not align with our business strategy, as we aim to provide a comprehensive and self-contained payroll solution for Australian businesses.
General Ledger (GL) Data Export
While we do not support direct payroll data export to other applications, Lightning Payroll desktop enables the export of General Ledger (GL) data. This can be done through a CSV file, allowing you to integrate your payroll data with your accounting software. For detailed instructions on exporting GL data, please visit our FAQ on the topic.
Custom Reporting for Data Management
Lightning Payroll desktop also offers robust custom reporting tools, including:
- Employee Report Builder under Reports >> Employee Report Builder, for detailed employee information.
- Pay Report Builder under Reports >> Pay Report Builder, for comprehensive pay data.
These tools allow you to create custom reports and export them as CSV files. Although primarily designed for data editing and organisation in Excel, they might suit your purposes for data manipulation or analysis outside of Lightning Payroll.
We hope this information helps. Should you have any further questions or require assistance, please do not hesitate to contact our support team.
