Generate Baseline Extract
Run the Global Payroll Interface in Baseline Only mode to generate a full baseline extract record without producing any output file. The Global Payroll Interface uses this baseline record for comparison of attributes in the next incremental run.
You can generate a baseline extract when:
-
HCM Cloud and the third-party payroll application are in sync, and you don't want to send the interface output file to the payroll application.
-
You want to report additional attributes that were part of a delivered enhancement with other changes in the next incremental run.
Here's how you perform baseline extraction:
-
On the Home page, click the Submit a Flow quick action under the My Client Groups tab.
-
Select the Legislative Data Group from the list of values.
-
Search for and select the payroll interface flow name based on the current interface you are using.
-
Provide these values on the Submit a Payroll Flow page:
