Important

A warning appears if the import file contains a new province of pay (inexistent for any employee to this day) and it is different from your company’s province. You will be prompted to contact our customer service by submitting a request in the Contact us function (Docum > Contact us) to update your file.  

 

Things to remember

The import will not take place if the file contains too many errors, if it is unreadable, if the content is not valid or if it contains one or more wrongly identified sections.

When data has been successfully imported and you try to import another file for the same business, the system will display the following message: “A file with the same name and same format has already been imported today”. If you accept this message, all the data from your file will be imported.
