Certified Payrolls Information
Certified payroll functionality in CRL allows payrolls to be imported and tracked in a singular database. Various payroll components are calculated and checked in CRL, including pay rates, fringe benefits, hours worked, etc. There are three (3) methods to enter payrolls in CRL:
2.Excel Spreadsheet and Conversion – recommended for smaller companies with no payroll system (≤50 employees);
3.XML Export from your Company's Payroll System – Recommended and preferred method for importing payrolls; takes the longest to develop but is the quickest method to import once developed.The below resources may be used to develop an XML export from your payroll system. Limited access to a test environment of AWP CRL may be provided upon request to evaluate if the export developed from your payroll system is valid.
