Wages Export File Format

The table below describes the standard wages export file format.

The file naming convention for wage export files will be WAGES_<batch ID><ddmmyyyy><hhmmss>.CSV (e.g. WAGES_000002_251120 14_154825.CSV).

Depending on how the wages grouping options are configured, some fields may not be written to the export file as they will not be relevant to the grouping. For more information, see Wage Transaction Grouping and Appendix C: Wage Export Field Matrix.

Any fields that cannot be populated due to there being no corresponding hierarchy level value or due to not being applicable at the level of grouping that is applied will be set to blank.
