# How do I set up the nominal codes for payments?

This feature allows you to set up the nominal codes for all the payment items of
your payroll and export them in a CSV format from our package to another
accounts package or application. To set up the nominal codes for payments simply
go to Chart of Setup from the Employer / Setup drop down menu and click on the
Nominal / Accounting Link Setup in the Nominal & Accounting section. Now click
on the Nominal Code Setup for Payment. This screen lists the nominal codes for
all your payment items. You can edit the nominal codes according to your
accounts package requirements. To edit or enter the nominal codes, click on the
Edit button. Enter the nominal codes as detailed in your accounting package.
Click on the Save button to save the entered data.

Once you have entered your nominal codes simply process your employees' pay and
update the YTD. You can then generate the Nominal Code CSV file from our service
and this can be exported to another accounting package. To export the CSV file,
simply click on Export Data under Others in the Tasking Zone and select the
required option to continue further.
