HR Authority Remittance Interface

---

This process generates a file that you can submit with payments to an authority, such as a superannuation fund.

Use this form to edit existing formats, or to create new ones. The Default file is a reference to the directory path to which the output file is saved. The output defaults to the HR Authority Remittance Export Report form for ease of data entry whenever you select an authority that uses this interface for export.

Select the interface type HR Authority Remittance Interface and enter or select an Interface name. Then, select Edit interface.

File Format

Select a file format, based on how to format the data in the output file.

Each field in a fixed-length file must have a Length parameter defined and it must be precise. Greentree Desktop uses the length to determine at which point it meets a new field within a line in the file.

Some fixed length files have a carriage return at the end of each line, and some will not. Those that do not look like a continuous string of data, and the file will not wrap.

If the file format is Comma delimited, the values in the Length column in the Lines section do not apply.

Blocks

Select the Used box for the section to create for the file. You can choose Header, Transaction, or Footer.

Greentree Desktop updates the No of fields column as fields are created in the Lines table. The Record length column also updates using the length of each line.

Lines

Lines are visible in the table using the block that is selected. Assign values and lengths to each line to create your interface format.

Use these system fields:

• Grand Total
• Annualised Salary - This returns the output of the Get Annualised Pay - Current Report Writer method.
• Report From Date - This returns the from date
• Report To Date - This returns the to date from the Authority Remittance Export form.
• Number of pay periods - This returns the number of pay periods covered by the dates on the report. This is based off the calendar from the pay group of the employee.
• Employee phone (SAFF) - This returns the phone number in the correct format for the SAFF file
• Employee A/H phone (SAFF) - This returns the phone number in the correct format for the SAFF file
• Employee mobile (SAFF) - This returns the phone number in the correct format for the SAFF file
• Employee sex code (SAFF) - This returns the sex code in the correct format for the SAFF file
• Employee state (SAFF) - This returns the state in the correct format for the SAFF file
• Line no

Click the Save icon to save the interface format and return to the main form.
