Troubleshooting upload errors

Q: What should I do if I get "Must Be More Than Minimum Transaction Limit [Field Value:0]" error?

A: The error message means that the staff have $0 and cannot be included in the payment. Before resolving the issue, you need to check staff data first. Go to Edit Payroll and check the staff's pay item calculation.

Make sure that their Basic Rate (Wage) and timesheet hours/days are not 0.

  1. If staff's Basic Rate (Wage) is 0

    1. You need to remove the staff from payroll

    2. Fill in their Basic Rate (Wage) in My Team

    3. Run adhoc payroll for that staff

  2. If timesheet hours/days data are 0

    1. Make sure that staff's timesheet are not empty

    2. If staff have clocked records and the calculation in Edit Payroll displayed as $0, please contact our customer service to resolve the issue.


If you're having any trouble or encounter errors when uploading the bank file, please contact our customer service and send:

  1. Bank file you downloaded from the Web App

  2. Screenshot of the error messages
