ADP Payroll to Sage: Automated Journal Entry Guide
ADP doesn't have a native journal entry integration with Sage. Firms that use ADP for payroll and Sage for accounting must manually map ADP's General Ledger codes to Sage accounts and create the journal entry by hand each pay period — a process that can take 45–90 minutes for complex payroll structures.
How PostBooks connects ADP to Sage
- Download the ADP GL report. Export the General Ledger report from ADP under Reports > Payroll > General Ledger as a CSV file.
- Upload to PostBooks and map to Sage accounts. PostBooks parses ADP's GL format and maps each code to your Sage chart of accounts. Set the mapping once and PostBooks reuses it every pay run.
- Export to Sage. PostBooks generates a Sage-compatible journal entry export ready to import into your Sage instance.
