Introducing the Payroll Module

The Payroll module provides the full-featured payroll processing and reporting necessary to manage today's payroll needs.

With the flexible payroll code system, define how the payroll module tracks types of payments, benefits, deductions, and leave time for each employee. Payroll Processing Groups allow the production of payrolls divided by processing cycle, department, program, or other type of grouping. Whether employees are hourly or salaried, part-time or full-time, the Payroll module can produce a payroll with minimum effort and maximum efficiency.

The Payroll module features timesaving tools like the default timesheet, which allows entry of all applicable payroll codes and regular earnings for each employee. With this feature, employee timesheet data entry is required for only those timesheets that change from cycle to cycle. This module also provides full reporting for internal controls, federal, state, other withholding tax reports, and W-2 and W-3 production using Tax Forms and eFiling by Aatrix®.
