Create New Employee from Direct Access

For those clients who have signed up with Datacom and have opted for the Direct Access web portal, users with Administrator access are able to import employees through the New Employee Form.

• Log into Direct Access with your administrator account https://www.datacomdirectaccess.com.au/
• Switch to Admin Direct Access
• Click on Employee Maintenance > New Employee

The New Employee screen below will allow the admin to view any previously created New Employee Form, delete a New Employee, or save a draft of any New Employee form and resume at any time. 

To create a New Employee click the plus  button

The Form will be divided into 6 sections with tabs along the top menu:

• Personal - Basic personal and contact details
• Payroll - Bank account, Salary details, Work pattern and Leave entitlements
• Employment - Home costing, Reporting manager, Position Details
• Tax - TFN Declaration questions. Click here to view the guide on the TFN Declared By Field
• Superannuation - Nominated Superfund Details
• Confirmation - Final validation check, confirms the first pay period for the employee and submit data to payroll

When completing the form there will be a validation message on the bottom-left corner advising of any mandatory fields required and a Progress Bar will be displayed on the bottom-right corner. 

Proceed through each section to complete the form by clicking the Next button.

Once all the details are complete and you reach the Confirmation tab, select when you would like to commence the first payment for the employee. 

This will automatically create a pay packet for the employee in the relevant Pay Period.

Click on the Setup is Complete button and the New Employee's data will be sent to the DataPay application
