What it does for your firm
Managing payroll data shouldn’t mean hours of manual work. With Qount’s Apex integration, your payroll reports flow directly into your accounting system—securely and automatically.
Why it matters
No More Manual Entries – Payroll data is exported once from Apex, and Qount maps every line item to the correct Chart of Accounts and classes automatically.
- Accurate Every Time – Wages, taxes, benefits, and liabilities are recognized, coded by department/class, and posted correctly as Adjusting Journal Entries (AJEs).
- Works with Your System – Entries flow directly into QuickBooks Online or Xero through Qount’s native integrations.
- Security Built In – Reports are transferred via dedicated, key-secured SFTP channels with audit trails and regular key rotation.
- Time Back for Your Team – Eliminate repetitive reconciliations and error-prone data handling so your staff can focus on higher-value advisory work.
Payroll is no longer a bottleneck. With Qount + Apex, your books stay current, accurate, and compliant—without the manual overhead.
How it works
- Secure File Transfer – Each firm gets a dedicated, tenant-isolated SFTP folder. Access is allowed only via SSH key authentication (no passwords), with regular key rotation.
- Automated Report Delivery – Apex payroll reports are automatically exported to the firm’s Qount SFTP folder.
- Ingestion & Validation – Qount picks up files, verifies checksums/manifests, and validates report structure.
- Mapping & Posting – Qount’s payroll engine:
- Understands the Chart of Accounts (COA)
- Recognizes classes/departments
- Builds Adjusting Journal Entries (AJEs)
These entries are posted directly into QuickBooks Online or Xero.
- Audit & Compliance – All file transfers, key events, and journal postings are logged for a complete audit trail.
