Generate the WPS SIF file

Before you start

• Enter the employer details in MAJA Books → Settings → Organisation (MOHRE establishment ID and the bank's WPS routing code).
• Pay the salaries in a run (see Pay salaries from a bank account).

Steps

1. In MAJA Payroll, under Payroll, click WPS export and check WPS readiness: each employee should say "ready". Fix anyone missing an IBAN, routing code or labour card in Employees → Edit → Finance & WPS.
2. Open MAJA Books, click Payroll, then Salary Payables.
3. In the toolbar, choose the paid run.
4. Click WPS SIF.
5. Upload the downloaded file to your bank's WPS service.

What MAJA does for you

• The file is named after your MOHRE ID with the date and time, ending in .SIF.
• It has one EDR line per employee (labour card number, routing code, IBAN, the month's start and end dates, days, the fixed part and the variable part — overtime and commission — and the unpaid days) and one SCR control line with the total.
• The amounts are the net pay actually paid in the run, never the basic salaries.

Good to know

• Without the 13-digit MOHRE ID or the bank's 9-digit routing code, MAJA names what is missing and makes no file.
• An employee without the bank-file details is left out and named in a warning; the file total is then less than the run.
• The WPS export page in MAJA Payroll checks readiness; its Open Salary Payables in Books button takes you to the screen that makes the file.
