Sage 50 payroll transactions

Use the Sage 50 payroll transactions function to enquire on and amend financial transactions created from XML files imported from Sage 50 Payroll.

You should use it to check all header and detail line values before you post the journal, especially the Site and Account Codes that have been transcribed from Sage 50 Payroll values.

When you have reviewed the transaction you can:

• Post it as an automatic journal 
• Delete it, correct the transcription tables and import it again.

Splitting large files

Sage X3 can only accept transactions with a maximum of 9,999 lines. If the Sage 50 XML X3 Import Conversion Tool processes a file with more than 5,000 lines it will split the output into two, or more, XML files to be transcribed into separate Sage X3 transactions. The files produced will have a '-n' suffix so, for example a Sage 50 Payroll file with 3,000 lines would result in a single file with a file identifier such as 20140701151617, whereas a Sage 50 Payroll file with 9,000 lines would result in two files with identifiers such as 20140701151617-1 and 20140701151617-2.

Because these import transactions have been created from the same Sage 50 Payroll file, you should post all the journals, created from related transaction files, at the same time.

 5,000 is the default number of lines, it can be configured in the Sage 50 XML X3 Import Conversion Tool, please refer to the accompanying PDFs for guidance and instructions.
