Switch payroll systems without starting over
Bring your employees and history with you. Payroll Africa imports employee details, year-to-date payroll totals, leave balances and outstanding loans from spreadsheet exports of your current system, and our team can help you map the data.
How it works
- 1
Export from your old system
Download employee and payroll reports from Sage, another payroll system or your spreadsheets.
- 2
Upload and match columns
Upload the files and match each column to the right Payroll Africa field.
- 3
Check before importing
Invalid dates and missing values are flagged before anything is saved, so bad data doesn't slip in.
- 4
Run a parallel payroll
Compare your first Payroll Africa run with your old system before you switch over completely.
How it helps your business
Keep your history
Year-to-date totals mean tax and annual certificates stay correct mid-year.
Accurate balances
Leave and loan balances carry over, so employees don't lose anything.
Hands-on help
Our team can help with data mapping at no extra cost.
Switch any time
Move mid-year, not only at the start of a tax year.
What can be imported
Most businesses can move over in a few days, depending on how clean the source data is.

- Salaries and recurring pay items
- Year-to-date payroll totals
