Export pay run timesheets to MYOB

Export approved pay run hours, leave and allowances as a MYOB timesheet import file (AccountRight or Business).

When you need this

You process payroll in MYOB AccountRight or MYOB Business and want approved hours and leave from a SprintSuite pay run imported as MYOB timesheets, instead of entering them by hand.

Before you start

  • MYOB Payroll is on for the billable company, and every shift type, leave type and allowance is mapped. See Map MYOB payroll categories.

  • Each staff member's first name and last name in SprintSuite match their MYOB employee card exactly. MYOB uses the names to find the employee.

  • Timesheets are turned on in your MYOB payroll setup.

  • If you track jobs in MYOB, SprintSuite job numbers match your MYOB job numbers.

Steps

1. Export from SprintSuite

  1. Approve the timesheets and leave for the pay period as usual.

  2. Go to Staff Times and open the Pay Runs tab.

  3. Find the pay run by its start and end dates, and click Export MYOB on that row.

  4. Save the file.

Three columns on the Pay Runs list track the export:

Column

2. Import into MYOB

  1. In MYOB, open File → Import/Export Assistant and choose to import Timesheets.

  2. Select the file, match the fields, and finish the import.

  3. Review the import log, then process the pay run in MYOB.

What's in the file

The file includes approved shift hours, approved leave taken in the pay period, and allowances.

What success looks like

  • The pay run's MYOB Export Status updates, with the date and your name under Last Exported.

  • MYOB imports every line with no unmatched employees and no categories to allocate.

  • Each employee's hours in MYOB match the SprintSuite pay run.

If it fails

  • Employee not found → the SprintSuite name doesn't exactly match the MYOB employee card. Fix one to match the other, then re-import.

  • MYOB asks you to allocate a category → that shift type, leave type or allowance isn't mapped. Map it, then export again.

  • Category not found → the mapped name doesn't match MYOB exactly. Correct it on Payroll Categories.

  • Job not found → create the job in MYOB, or correct the job number in SprintSuite.

  • Hours missing → check the timesheets or leave were approved and fall within the pay run dates.
