Hi navin1-jain-gmai,

 

Thanks for posting in the Community!

 

To be able to successfully import timesheets from Deputy, you'll have to make sure you're using the Deputy Enterprise edition. Also, you'll have to make sure you've selected the correct Column types for the leave category ID and Category type.

 

Category type: This field indicates the type of data that is present in the Category ID or Category external ID fields. Possible values:

 

  • L indicates a leave category
  • W indicates a work type
  • P (or empty) indicates a pay category

Additionally, you may export three types of leave (Annual Leave, Sick Leave, and Time in Lieu Taken) from Deputy. You will need to configure the system to accept these leave types. This is done by going into Payroll Settings > Leave Categories and adding the  external codes.

 

Also, when importing timesheets from Deputy, employee and location data needs to exist and match the data from the timesheets being imported.

 

You can check this link here to learn more about Exporting Timesheets from Deputy Standard or Premium Edition please check it here.

 

If the issue persists, I would recommend contacting our Customer Care Team. That way, on of our live agents can check your account in a secure form.

 

Posta again in the Community if you have more questions. I'll be around to help you!
