Export Mapping

Customers using Selerix for their ACA management services, must complete the required export mapping in Admin Tools.

  1. Navigate the Start Page and open Admin Tools
  2. Click on Import Export Mapping
  3. Click on the Mapping Type Data tab
  4. Filter in the Group Description filter field for "SyncStream Export"

     

Employee Status Mapping

For each of the available Avionte employee statuses listed in the Source System Value column, select a Selerix status to map them to in the Mapped Value column.  The mapped Selerix status is what is passed in the files to Selerix.

The available Selerix employee statuses are:

  • Active
  • Inactive
  • Terminated
  • FMLA
  • IFMLA

Data Requirement Message (DRM) Warning: If employee statuses are not mapped, you will receive a warning: "Selerix Integration: There are unmapped Employee Status which will cause incorrect reporting. Please map them in Admin Tools > Import/Export/Mapping > SyncStream Export."

Default Behavior: If mappings are not configured and the DRM warning is dismissed or turned off, the system will default to passing "Active" as the employee status in files sent to Selerix.

 

Rate of Pay Type Mapping

For each of the available Avionte staffing suppliers listed in the Source System Value column, select a Rate of Pay Type to map them to in the Mapped Value column.  The mapped Rate of Pay Type is used to pass the appropriate value for the "Rate of Pay" column in the files to Selerix.

The available Selerix Rate of Pay Types are:

  • W2 = Gross Wages
  • Rate of Pay = Pay Rate
    •

Data Requirement Message (DRM) Warning: If rate of pay types are not mapped, you will receive a warning: "Selerix Integration: There are unmapped items in Mapping Type 'Rate of Pay Type' which will cause incorrect reporting. Please map them in Admin Tools > Import/Export/Mapping > SyncStream Export."

Default Behavior: If mappings are not configured and the DRM warning is dismissed or turned off, the system will default to passing "Rate of Pay" (pay rate) in files sent to Selerix.

 

Rehire Gap (Days) Mapping

For each of the available Avionte staffing suppliers listed in the Source System Value column, enter a value in the Mapped Value column that defines the gap (in days) in pay which would result in the talent being a rehire.  The mapped rehire gap value is used to pass an accurate hire date in the files to Selerix.

Data Requirement Message (DRM) Warning: If rehire gap values are not mapped, you will receive a warning: "Selerix Integration: There are unmapped items in Mapping Type: 'Rehire Gap' which will cause incorrect reporting. Please map them in Admin Tools > Import/Export/Mapping > SyncStream Export."

Default Behavior: If mappings are not configured and the DRM warning is dismissed or turned off, the system will default to using "91 days" as the rehire gap in files sent to Selerix.

 

Employee Mapping

There's a new standard Employee Extra called Employee Type that goes with the Selerix exports.  By default the export will pass an employee type value of "Part Time" for all records in the files to Selerix.  For employees who are either "Full Time" or "Seasonal", a user will need to set their employee type to the appropriate value and then the default value of "Part Time" will be overridden with the new value entered in Employee > Extra.

  1. Search for employee record
  2. Navigate to the Extra subtree menu
  3. Select the Label of Employee Type
  4. Select the appropriate employee type value for the employee

 Available Employee Type options:

  • Full Time
  • Part Time
  • Seasonal

Default Behavior: If the Employee Type extra is not set up or not populated for specific employees, the system will default to passing "Part Time" as the employee type in files sent to Selerix.

Employee Census Export File Validation

The Selerix Payroll export runs automatically on the scheduled basis (Tuesday and Saturday evenings). Files are generated and transmitted to Selerix automatically without manual user intervention.

Data Validation: If required data is missing or incomplete when the export runs, the file will still be transmitted to Selerix. Selerix will process the file on their end and notify the client if any data issues are detected that prevent proper processing.

Correcting Data Issues: If Selerix identifies missing or invalid data, clients can update the necessary information in Avionte's Back Office (such as employee records, mapping configurations, transaction data, or other relevant data). The corrected data will automatically be included in the next scheduled export run.
