Sending it to your payroll provider

The period is approved. Everyone's gross pay is settled. Now the numbers have to reach the system that actually withholds taxes and pays people — Gusto, ADP, QuickBooks, or the accountant with a spreadsheet.

RewireBox's half of that handoff is a file shaped the way your provider expects, so payday doesn't include retyping fourteen columns into someone else's import screen.

Connect once

Providers, in the Payroll header, lists Gusto, Rippling, ADP, Paychex, QuickBooks, plus Paper check and Generic CSV for everyone else. Connecting a provider means one thing: a column mapping — which of the report's columns lands under which of their headers.

The catalog knows where each provider actually operates. Rippling, ADP and QuickBooks run payroll in both the United States and Canada; Gusto and Paychex are US-only, so a Canadian salon sees those two marked unavailable rather than being walked into a mapping for a provider that can't take them. Generic CSV is the Canadian workhorse — Wagepoint, Payworks, Dayforce, Rise and any other service that imports a spreadsheet can read it, with the headers renamed to match their import sheet.

You can build the mapping by hand, or press Coach and describe your setup in a sentence — "tips are paid in cash", "our file numbers are the staff IDs" — and it proposes the mapping, explains itself, and flags anything left unmapped. Either way you review and apply; the mapping is saved, not the conversation.

Export a period

On an approved period, Export to… produces the provider-shaped file, and Download report offers the plain version — CSV, JSON, PDF or Excel, with optional sales totals and the day-by-day detail. Every export lands in the period's Exports list with its date, format and line count, so "which file did we send?" always has an answer.

Exporting is repeatable. The report froze at approval, so a re-export is the same numbers again — a fresh copy, never a fresh calculation.

What RewireBox deliberately does not do

No tax calculation, no withholding, no filings, no money movement. Those are regulated, state-by-state (or province-by-province) jobs your provider already does full-time — and the reason you keep them. RewireBox does the part they can't: turning your salon's commission rules, tips and pools into one correct gross-pay line per person. The file is the whole relationship.
