The import file must be a comma delimited file. Each column heading needed for import file is listed below. The import file must follow the exact order as presented below; if this order is not exact the import will be unsuccessful.

@IDType will be the first column in the file. The data in this column specifies which field will be used to identify the assignment that the manual adjustment is being created for. The following codes can be used in the @IDType column and each code is associated with a specific assignment level field.

  • RSNO = Relocation System Number

  • ASID = AssignmentID

  • FHID = From Employee ID

  • FTID = From National ID Number

  • FSID = From Social Insurance ID

  • FNID = From National Tax ID

  • FPID = From Payroll ID

  • TTID = To National ID Number
