Patrick_8319167 · September 11

We are currently migrated from Payroll Premier to Reckon Payroll (We are not using Reckon One). Is anyone know how can I create ABA file for the pay run in Reckon Payroll? Also, is anyone know how to email payslips to employee in Reckon Payroll?

Hi @Patrick_8319167,

When you are migrated from Payroll Premier over to Reckon Payroll, you will also have access to Reckon one where you will be able to generate an ABA file.

Step 1: Setting up your Internet banking to accept ABA file.

Before you can upload the ABA files to your bank portal, you will need to speak with your bank to get access to your special online login account, where you have the ability to upload the ABA file.

Note: Not all login has this ability.

Step 2: Setting up Reckon One. You will have to configure your book by adding the bank details such as BSB, account numbers and accounts names etc in your bank account and employee’s record. As these details are required when exporting the payments (ABA) file to the bank.

In regard to emailing pay slips to employees in Reckon Payroll, you will only be able to do so after marking a pay-run as 'paid' and you should see a button in the same spot to 'send pay slips' and select employees within the pay-run or view them.

If you require further clarification, privately message me and we can discuss this further.

Thank you and have a lovely day.

Kind regards,

Lucas

Hi Lucas,

I never use Reckon One before. Is there any user guide that help me to setup bank details and employee record in Reckon One.

Also, after process a payrun, how to transfer the payment details from Reckon Payroll to Reckon One?

Many thanks

Regards

Hi @Pia,

I would like you to please navigate to Reckon Customer Portal and login with your account details that you currently use for Reckon Payroll.

Once you are logged into Reckon one, could you navigate to the banking section and select 'Bank accounts', you will be able to see the defaults within Reckon one:

Once you are in the Bank accounts section, click add and enter your banking details for the account.

The next step would be to navigate to the employee section and select the employee and opening the employee record,

Clicking on the employment tab and adding a new row in the payments tab and entering the employee details.

Next, we will now go to bank payments by navigating to the banking section again and clicking add, where you will need to select the bank account you previously setup.

Now that you have added an unprocessed bank payment, please start adding new payment items for your employees and click generate file to receive the ABA file.
