Prepare the Records Needed to Continue Payroll

Payroll migration must distinguish the amounts being transferred from the rules used to calculate them. An export from the previous application may show the amounts without explaining how they were calculated. Sigma Solusi Informatika helps review the records, formats, and configuration needed so the payroll team has guidance through the technical preparation.

Agree the Period and Opening Records

When changing applications, identify the last completed payroll period and the records needed for the next calculation. Without this boundary, a component change or an amount from an earlier period may be applied incorrectly.

We discuss reference dates, relevant balances or accumulated amounts, and confirmed payroll results. Your company can identify which historical records are still needed for calculations and reports. The scope follows the requirements for using and checking the new application.

Match Components to Company Rules

Component names in the previous system may differ from those in the new application. Distinguish fixed amounts, calculated results, and supporting records. Treating all of them as equivalent opening values can produce payroll results that do not follow company rules.

We help map components and review calculation examples. Company rules are confirmed before configuration. This gives the payroll team clear guidance on the records to prepare and any calculations that need further explanation.

Compare Results with Previous Payroll Data

Compare the same payroll period, employee group, and source records. If attendance or allowance amounts change between calculations, the resulting difference may have nothing to do with migration. Keep the reference consistent throughout the checks.

We review sample components and investigate differences with the payroll team. These may arise from opening values, calculation rules, or changes that have not been confirmed. After corrections, results are checked again before payroll is processed operationally.

Separate Opening Values from Calculation Rules

A fixed allowance, overtime pay for one period, and accumulated amounts from earlier periods may require different treatment. Label each amount and the period it covers. The payroll team can then confirm whether it is an opening value, a transaction result, or an input to a later calculation.

Sigma helps prepare and check payroll records so the transition moves efficiently and differences can be traced. Your company can see which periods and records support each comparison. Once the application is in use, Application Specialists remain available through clear support channels.

Sigma Solusi Informatika helps companies move payroll to Sigma HRIS or Forte HRIS by reviewing sample records and company rules. The next step is checking payroll results in the new system. Our team continues to help with questions during the first payroll and with issues after launch.

Questions About Payroll Data Migration

Can payroll data from the old application be used?

Exported records can serve as a source. We review their format, contents, and intended use with your team before importing.

Must we import the entire payroll history?

Not always. Opening records and historical information are selected according to operational and reporting needs.

Does data migration also transfer calculation formulas?

Not automatically. Payroll values can be imported from source records, but calculation rules must be explained and configured in the new application. Last month’s allowance amount, for example, does not explain how to calculate next month’s allowance.

Why should we agree a reference payroll period?

It distinguishes finalised records from changes that belong to the next period, allowing the team to compare results on the same basis.

What if the payroll results differ?

We investigate differences by component, checking the records and configuration, then verify the results after any corrections.

Will Sigma help prepare the required format?

Yes. We help map columns and payroll components within the agreed scope, so your team does not have to prepare everything alone.
