Importing incomes using API

Hi, I am trying to import overtime of employees from excel book using Sage 50 API, but I have not found any example or reference in the SDK. Anyone have any idea if this can be done or I can give reference on the subject. Thank you

    Hi,

    Which version, and which Edition of Sage 50 are you working with?

    Are you wanting to import the employee totals directly into payroll, or are you using Time Slips?

    In the free SDK, there is documentation on the API calls and import formatting for Time Slips and Invoicing, but little or nothing (other than the data dictionary) on using the API to generate report output / printing, or for any type of payments.

    Hello Randy thanks for your answer. I'm using a trial of Sage 50 Pro Accounting (Release 2016.2) just for testing. I'm very new using Sage, this is the situation: I receive every week an excel with information about overtime worked by employees and I need import that information in Sage income employee. I've been searching on SDK about it but I haven't found anything. Please could you tell me some exact references?

    In Dev-Import, there is a sample time slip import file at the end of the PDF:

    <Version>
    "12001", "1"
    </Version>

    <Timeslip>
    “Sianos, Janice”
    “2”,”1242”,”3-15-2001”
    “Customer5”,”C1020”,”02:00:00”
    “Customer6”,”C1020”,”02:00:00”
    </Timeslip>

    There are also API calls to work with Time Slips.

    But... Time Slips are only included in Sage 50 Premium and above, so importing time slips is not a solution.

    I don't know of any way of directly importing payroll transactions into Sage 50.
