LCPcertified - DIR XML Export

LCPCERTIFIED DIR XML EXPORT

The California – Senate Bill (SB) 854 is the driving force behind the creation of the LCPtracker XML Export feature. The Division of Industrial Relations (DIR) has created specific specifications. As well, the DIR has its own site for uploading of required documentation, specifically the uploading of certified payroll.

We have included this link within LCPtracker that will take you directly to their site - http://www.dir.ca.gov/Public Works/PublicWorks.html 

Six Major Items to remember to complete for the upload to be successful:

1. The DIR Project ID must be entered in the Projects Screen.
   
2. The General/Prime Contractor’s Name must be entered in the CPR Details Screen under Projects.
3. The Contractor PWCR Number must be entered in the Set Up>Company Information screen. Contractors not yet registered, use this direct link https://www.dir.ca.gov/Public-Works/Contractor-Registration.html to get yourself registered.
4. The FEIN must be entered in the Set Up>Company Information screen.
5. The state abbreviation in the Set Up>Company Information screen must be uppercase (CA, not Ca).
6. The Contractor License Number must be entered in the Set Up>Company Information screen. 

EXPORTING CPRS IN XML FORMAT

Contractors also have the ability to export their CPRs. This option will be located under the Projects>Certified Payrolls. Click on the DIR XML button for the project and week-end-date you need to upload.  

EXPORT /UPLOAD DIRECTIONS

After clicking on the DIR XML button, you will see a message at the bottom of your screen to open a file. While you may open, we suggest clicking the down arrow next to save and choose to Save as.

Decide where on your computer you will be saving. One suggestion is to create a folder that your XML Exports or DIR Uploads. When you go to upload, you will know exactly where to retrieve the file. 

While you may choose to save and open, or wish to open before saving to view; most may choose to Save as and 

proceed to the DIR website to upload. Here is an example of what the DIR XML looks like:
