01 · Employee Data Sync

How employee records move from Effica into Pay Cat.

API connection
Yes

Effica sends employee updates to Pay Cat by API. A user runs the sync manually, so nothing changes in payroll until your team is ready.

Data flow direction
Effica → Pay Cat

One-way sync. Name and email, pay rate and classification, leave requests and leave balances all flow from Effica into Pay Cat.

Data exchanged
✓ Name & email ✓ Pay rate / classification ✓ Leave requests ✓ Leave balances
Sync trigger
Manual, triggered by user

Sync runs when a user triggers it in Effica.

Unique identifier
Email address

Staff are matched by email, so make sure each person's email is the same in Effica and Pay Cat.

02 · Timesheets & Rostering

How shift and timesheet data reaches Pay Cat for pay runs.

Timesheets via API
Yes
Spreadsheet export
Yes

Effica also supports a spreadsheet export, with the headers needed to import straight into Pay Cat. Kilometres driven appear on the same row as the shift.

Work type / service mapping
Yes

Map your Effica service types to the right Pay Cat work types.

Sleepover shifts
Active + wake time handled

Active time has its own start and end times, and the sleepover is split around it so the two never overlap. That's the structure Pay Cat needs to pay each part correctly.

Travel time
Recorded & exported

Travel time is recorded in Effica and exported to Pay Cat as a timesheet, so it gets paid.

Optional data points
Location / cost centre, shift conditions

Both carry across on each timesheet.
