Example of Loading Payroll Time Cards

Use HCM Data Loader to import time cards from a third-party time collection system to the Payroll cloud.

Let's look at this example. Recently,Vision Corp has acquired a company and imports the acquired employees' approved time to Payroll for payments.

Note:
  • When creating Payroll time cards, you have the option to pass rate information for a time entry. You can either pass the Rate Name, Rate Definition ID or Rate Value. If you pass the Rate Value, you must also include the Periodicity.
  • The Payroll TimeCard object doesn’t support date-effective updates.

This PayrollTimeCard.dat file uses source keys to import approved time entries into the Oracle Payroll Cloud:
