Mapping Paychex Employees to Users in Timeero

1. To map Paychex workers to users in Timeero, choose Configuration > Configuration Mappings. It should take you to the page below.

2. You can click on the dropdown list to match the worker in Timeero to a worker in Paychex. If the worker in Paychex is not available in Timeero, you can add a new user in Timeero and then come back to the mapping page to map them.

Mapping Paychex Earning Items

The hourly and mileage codes must be correctly mapped in Timeero to Paychex pay items. If you are using overtime settings in Timeero, you must correctly map the Overtime and Double Overtime settings in Timeero to the appropriate Paychex Pay Items.

To do so, go to the Configurations page on your Paychex API settings which should look like the page below:

Select the appropriate Paychex Payroll Items for the hourly and mileage pay items.

And that's it!
