Import Timesheets from Tanda

Importing timesheets from Tanda eliminates the need to manually enter hours for each employee. Approved timesheets in Tanda are pulled directly into your Myaccountant pay run, populating ordinary hours, overtime, and other time-based pay items.

Prerequisites

  • Your Tanda account must be connected.
  • Employees must be matched between Tanda and Myaccountant (by email address).
  • Timesheets for the pay period must be approved in Tanda.
  • A pay run must already exist for the relevant period.

Steps to Import Timesheets

  1. Navigate to Payroll > Pay Runs and open the pay run for the relevant period.
  2. Click the Import Timesheets button (or select Import from Tanda from the Actions menu).
  3. Myaccountant will fetch approved timesheets from Tanda for the pay period dates.
  4. Review the imported data:
    • Each employee's total hours, broken down by ordinary hours, overtime, and any other categories configured in Tanda.
    • The corresponding pay items will be populated automatically.
  5. Click Confirm Import to apply the timesheet data to the pay run.

How Hours Are Mapped

Tanda timesheet categories are mapped to Myaccountant pay items as follows:

Tanda CategoryMyaccountant Pay Item
Ordinary hoursOrdinary Hours
Overtime (1.5x)Overtime - Time and a Half
Overtime (2x)Overtime - Double Time
Public holidayPublic Holiday

If Tanda uses custom categories, ensure they are mapped correctly under Settings > Integrations > Tanda > Category Mapping.

caution

Importing timesheets will overwrite any manually entered hours for the matched employees. Review the data carefully before confirming.

After Importing

  1. Review each employee's pay details to ensure hours and rates are correct.
  2. Add any additional pay items not covered by timesheets (e.g. allowances, bonuses).
  3. Finalise and submit the pay run as normal.
