Mapping pay rates
Here you are able to match your Deputy Pay Rates to Hours and Earnings codes in ADP Workforce Now. At the top of the screen, you are able to see the dates you are exporting for.
Note: Please ensure that each location you are attempting to export for has been mapped as part of the people sync connection experience.
