Time tracking for DataLøn

Time tracking and scheduling for DataLøn

Employees clock in and out in Monoplan, and you approve the hours. One file then moves hours and allowances into DataLøn, so nobody types them in again.

  • 30-day free trial
  • No payment card
  • No double entry

    Hours are recorded once in Monoplan and moved to DataLøn with one file.

  • Fewer payroll mistakes

    You approve hours, breaks and corrections before downloading the file. What you approved is what goes into DataLøn.

  • Allowances included

    Each allowance gets a pay part and is included as one total amount for the period.

For your payroll administrator

What needs to be set up the first time

An administrator enables DataLøn under Settings → Integrations and fills in the DataLøn setup. The details already exist in DataLøn.

Company number and pay period
Your DataLøn company number and pay period. 51 is selected by default because Monoplan's pay period is monthly.
Payroll numbers
Each employee's payroll number in Monoplan must match their employee number in DataLøn.
Pay part for hours
One pay part for all hourly employees, for example 1213 for normal hours, or one per position.
Pay part for allowances
Each allowance needs a four-character pay part.
Approved period
The file can only be downloaded once the pay period is approved.

Contents

What goes into the file

The file has no header, semicolons between fields and a decimal comma. Lines with the same employee, pay part and rate are added together, just as DataLøn does on import.

Hours for the period
Approved hours per employee and pay part for the whole pay period, after rounding, breaks and corrections.
Rates from DataLøn
By default only the hours are sent, and DataLøn uses the rate from the employee's fixed pay parts. You can choose to send the hourly wage from Monoplan as well.
Allowances as amounts
Each allowance is included as one total amount for the period.
Fixed salaries
Fixed salaries are not in the file. DataLøn calculates them itself.
Leave and absence
Register leave and absence directly in DataLøn. If absence is recorded in Monoplan for the period, the DataLøn file cannot be downloaded.

Questions about Monoplan and DataLøn

Does Monoplan integrate with DataLøn?

Monoplan creates a payroll file that you import into DataLøn. It is a file export, not an API connection, so no data is sent automatically between the systems.

Which plan includes the DataLøn payroll file?

Payroll files are included in Pro, which costs DKK 30 per active employee per month with a 12-month commitment, or DKK 35 without commitment. Prices exclude VAT, and you pay for at least 10 active employees.

What does the DataLøn file look like?

The file follows DataLøn's import format for flexible pay parts: seven fields per line, separated by semicolons, with no header and a decimal comma. The line 00012345;51;1234;1213;;82,50; means 82.50 normal hours for employee 1234 in the period.

Which rate is used for the hours?

By default the rate from the employee's fixed pay parts in DataLøn, so Monoplan only sends the hours. If you prefer the hourly wage from Monoplan, choose it in the DataLøn setup.

Are allowances included in the file?

Yes. Each allowance gets a pay part and is included as one total amount for the period.

Are leave and absence included?

No. Register leave and absence directly in DataLøn. If absence is recorded in Monoplan for the period, the DataLøn file cannot be downloaded.

What if hours need correcting after the export?

An owner or administrator can reopen the period, correct the hours and approve again. Then download a new file and make sure the same hours are not imported into DataLøn twice.

Do we still use DataLøn for payroll itself?

Yes. Monoplan is not a payroll system. Monoplan brings together schedules, hours and allowances, and DataLøn calculates and pays wages. The employer is responsible for correct rates and payroll runs.

What if we use a different payroll system?

See the overview of payroll files and integrations. Monoplan can also create a payroll file for Danløn or a generic CSV file for your bookkeeper or payroll system.
