NOTE: If you are submitting more than one file in the same period for the same CSN, you will need to assign a different advice code for each file as this code acts as a file numbering system to differentiate files generated for different groups of employees belonging to the same CSN.

Step 7: Select the payrun that you want to generate the CPF file for. You can filter based on all payruns conducted for the month or if you have conducted multiple payruns for the month, filter based on a particular payrun only
