Change Employee requests
The Access MicrOpay Web API allows you to change a wide range of critical employee information through a request system, that is verified by the payroll user before it’s accepted into the payroll database. This information includes all the setup information about an employee such as personal, employment, bank, allowance, superannuation, and leave details.
Change Employee status
Posting a change employee will give direct feedback on known data issues, or will return a unique status ID if the request is successful. This ID can be used later to confirm whether the request has made it to the payroll database successfully, and then whether the payroll user has accepted the change request into the employee details, or get back a reason why it was rejected by payroll.
Change Employee Immediate
The Access MicrOpay Web API allows you to change some employee data without needing validation from the payroll user. This data includes information that won’t directly affect a pay run. So if the posted data is valid, it will be posted directly into the payroll database.
Leave planning
You can post leave planning records for employees to the payroll database. Similar to immediate employee, if the details are valid, this will be added directly to the payroll database without payroll user intervention.
Lookups
Changing certain employee details require you to know the codes and descriptions setup in that payroll database, such as leave or adds/deds. These lookups are posted by the payroll database to the Access MicrOpay Web API regularly, and you can get these to fill drop downs and/or validate the data employees are entering in your system will be accepted in the payroll database.
Employee Details
It is possible to get live employee details directly from the payroll database. This will send your request directly to the payroll database while you wait, in order to return you live data as it stands right now in payroll.
Leave Balances
As with employee details, you can also request live leave balances data directly from the payroll system.
