What is an extract type? Here is a list of extract types and their descriptions:
1- Full Profile (FULLPRF): Use this type for complete employee and
payroll data archives. You can also use this extract type for all custom
or seeded extracts.
2- Archive Retrieval (ARCRET): Use this type for reports based on
permanently archived data. For example, payslip. This extract type is
intended for seeded extracts only.
3- Benefits Carrier (BENCARRIER): Use this type for providing data to
3rd party benefits service providers. You can also use this extract type
for custom or seeded extracts.
4- EOY Archive (EOYAR): Use this type for End of Year archives (HR,
payroll, benefits etc.). You can also use this extract type for custom or
seeded extracts.
5- HR Archive (HRAR): Use this type for all HR archives, and you can
also use for custom or seeded extracts.
6- Payroll Archive (PAYAR): Use this type for payroll or payslip
archives. This extract type is intended for seeded extracts only.
7- Payroll Interface (PAYINT): Use this type for providing data to 3rd
party payroll service providers. You can also use this extract type for
custom or seeded extracts.
8- Payments (PAYMENTS): Use this type for salary payment method
