Paychex payroll importer for Beancount

The aim of this tool is to automate the monthly task of transcribing payroll CSV information for Conservancy's 8 (currently) employees into ~ 300 lines of fairly intricate Beancount bookkeeping data.

Usage

Run with:

java -jar import-0.0.8-standalone.jar --csv resources/example-paychex-pay-item-details.csv --date 2023-12-29 --period 'December 2023' --total-fees 206.50 --pay-receipt-no rt:19462/674660 --pay-invoice-no rt:19403/675431 --fees-receipt-no rt:19459/675387 --fees-invoice-no rt:19459/674887 --retirement-receipt-no rt:19403/676724 --retirement-invoice-no rt:19403/675431

Or use a reduced set of options (missing values will be replaced by "TODO" in the output):

java -jar import-0.0.8-standalone.jar --csv resources/example-paychex-pay-item-details.csv --date 2023-12-29 --period "December 2023" --total-fees 206.50

You can test the output in Beancount by adding the following header entries to define the accounts:

2023-01-01 open Assets:FR:Check2721
2023-01-01 open Assets:FR:Check1345
2023-01-01 open Expenses:Payroll:Salary
2023-01-01 open Expenses:Payroll:Fees
2023-01-01 open Expenses:Payroll:Tax
2023-01-01 open Expenses:Hosting
2023-01-01 open Expenses:Insurance
2023-01-01 open Liabilities:Payable:Accounts

Then run Beancount with:

bean-report [your file] balances
