TempWorks certified payroll # Placing workers on public jobs from TempWorks? Check the prevailing-wage payroll first. Export TempWorks pay history or check register data as CSV or Excel. WagePilot maps the job order, weekend date and pay codes, then reviews them against the project's wage rules. Or connect TempWorks directly (read-only) to sync pay runs on a schedule. Nothing is written back. [Check my TempWorks payroll](https://wagepilot.ai/check-payroll?source=tempworks-certified-payroll) - No credit card - Nothing submitted automatically - CSV / XLSX / WH-347 No payroll migration ## Do I need to replace TempWorks? **No.** TempWorks continues to calculate and run payroll. WagePilot reviews the project export as the public-works compliance layer before reporting. - File-based at launch - No write-back to TempWorks Purpose-built preparation ## TempWorks stays the back office. WagePilot reviews the export. Staffing firms placing workers on public-works job orders keep TempWorks for payroll and billing. WagePilot reviews the export from those job orders before anyone certifies it. 01 ### Recognize TempWorks exports Exports are detected from columns such as Weekend Date, Weekend Bill, Order ID, Customer and Bill Rate. You can also choose TempWorks yourself. 02 ### Group by job order Pay-code lines are combined per worker, weekend date, job order and job title. A worker on several public jobs is reviewed for each job separately. 03 ### Flag what cannot be mapped Reimbursements and other pay codes WagePilot does not recognize are listed for review. They are not counted as wages. 04 ### Review exceptions only See wage and fringe shortfalls, overtime arithmetic and missing classifications, each with source evidence. One repeatable path ## From payroll export to reporting preparation. 1. 1 **Export from TempWorks** Export pay history or check data that includes hours, pay rate and job title for each worker. A check register on its own has no hours or rates. 2. 2 **Upload to WagePilot** Choose TempWorks or let WagePilot detect it, then add project context and the wage determination. 3. 3 **Resolve exceptions** Confirm unmapped pay codes, verify the source records and work through each open check. 4. 4 **Prepare reporting** Carry the corrected payroll into the WH-347, state form or portal the project requires. **Validation boundary** WagePilot reads TempWorks file exports (CSV or XLSX) and can also connect to TempWorks through its API with read-only access. It never writes changes back. Column mappings come from TempWorks' public knowledge-base articles and should be confirmed against your own export. One payroll is enough to start ## Give WagePilot one payroll. 01 ### Upload Use a WH-347, CSV, XLSX, or payroll export. 02 ### WagePilot checks it Rules handle arithmetic; contextual review handles ambiguity. 03 ### Review exceptions Clean entries disappear into the background. [Check my TempWorks payroll](https://wagepilot.ai/check-payroll?source=tempworks-certified-payroll) Evidence before assertion ## Every exception answers three questions. **What did WagePilot find?** **Why was it flagged?** **What evidence did it use?** You are shown the reasoning—not asked to trust a black box.

No. The launch workflow starts with a PDF, CSV, or XLSX export. Your payroll system remains the source. ### Does WagePilot submit reports automatically? No. The diagnostic does not file anything. Material decisions and regulated submissions remain with you. ### What happens when the review is uncertain? The item is surfaced with review limitations, supporting evidence, and a recommended next action for human review. ### Can I see why an issue was flagged? Yes. Findings show the source, supplied rule evidence, calculation where applicable, review limitations, and next action. ### Does WagePilot calculate prevailing wages? Code performs deterministic comparisons against wage rules you supply. The MVP does not automatically identify the legally applicable determination. ### What happens to my payroll data? Files are held only while the review runs and are deleted when it finishes. PDF files are sent to OpenAI for structured extraction and the temporary uploaded file is deleted after processing. Unless your organization turns on the optional, encrypted keeping of originals in Settings, WagePilot does not keep payroll files. ### Can I use this for one project? Yes. Start with one payroll and one project without creating an account or entering a credit card. ### What states are supported? The initial diagnostic runs a narrow supplied-rules review. California, Illinois, and New York pages describe their reporting workflows, but WagePilot does not claim complete 50-state rules or filing support.
