Caps Pay External: How to Upload PDFs to Submit With Your CAPS Pay Batch

When a batch of timecards is ready to be submitted to CAPS payroll, CAPS Pay External allows Client Admins to upload PDFs of timecards and supporting documents to be submitted to payroll along with the batch.

The PDF Upload feature streamlines the batch submission process by enabling production to submit related PDFs immediately when batches are submitted and without having to navigate to a separate portal. 

Please Note

• The Upload feature is not available in CAPS Pay External by default, it must be turned on after a project is created in the system. When creating a new project, or if you do not readily see the feature available, contact your payroll coordinator for assistance. Your payroll coordinator can turn on the feature for you. 
• Only Client Admins can upload PDFs to a batch.
• Uploaded files must be in PDF format. 
• Up to 100 PDFs can be uploaded at once.
• Client Admins cannot modify the uploaded PDFs after the batch is submitted. If you suspect that the PDFs you uploaded/submitted are incorrect, or if you realize you need to submit additional PDFs, contact your payroll coordinator for guidance. You may need to leverage a separate Secure File Transfer System to submit additional files (such as Studio+).
