Importing Subcontractors from a CSV File

To access this utility, go to 'File' > 'Import/Export Data' > 'Import/Update Subcontractors from a CSV File'.

1) Browse to the location of your Subcontractor CSV File

2) Select the required file and click 'Open'

3) Your subcontractor information will be displayed on screen. For each column, choose the subcontractor data it represents. Ignore any columns and uncheck any rows you do not wish to be imported

• To assist with column selection, simply select 'Match Header Row'. BrightPay will try and match as many columns as it can for you.
  
  
• Should you have subcontractor CSV files to import for more than one company e.g. you are moving a number of companies across from a previous software, simply instruct BrightPay to 'Remember Columns'. BrightPay will subsequently remember the column selection used in the previous import when next importing a new subcontractor CSV file.
  
  
• Should you wish to reset your column selection at any time, 'Reset All Columns'.
  
  
  
  

4) Click 'Import' to complete the import of your subcontractor information.
