Migrate Your Payroll from Rippling

We’re excited to be your new payroll provider! Since you’ve already paid employees earlier this year through another provider, we’ll need some details from your previous payroll records. Importing this information helps ensure that all tax payments and reports stay accurate.

You can keep your account with your previous payroll provider active while the payroll data is being transferred into our system. This ensures you can continue to download reports or if necessary, run an additional payroll.

To provide us with your payroll data, download a report from your payroll provider and attach it to a Support Ticket.

For employers who have a weekly pay group:

1. Submit Initial Data: Send us all the data you have accumulated so far for the calendar year. This enables us to start the implementation process on our end.

2. Provide Final Payroll Run Data: Share the data from the final weekly payroll run with us.

Example Timeline:

Let’s say you run payroll every Monday for a Friday check date. Send us all payroll information except for the current week’s payroll so we can start the migration process. After you run your final payroll, send us the payroll journal by Friday. This allows us to finish migrating your data so you’re ready to run your first payroll the following week.

If you are onboarding in the middle of a quarter, you'll need to generate a report for each past payroll run in the current quarter along with reports showing year-to-date totals for each closed quarter.

For example, when joining with a first payroll date of 8/30 and having processed payroll during Q3 with check dates of 7/15, 7/31, and 8/15, we'll need the following report for each of those check dates in Q3, as well as a report for Q1 totals and Q2 totals.
