Payroll is composed of two databases, EMPLOYEE
(selected by choosing Employee on the Payroll Menu
Bar) and PAYROLL. The employee database contains
all of the pertinent data about each employee
including full name, social security number,
hourly pay amount, and so forth. You assign an
employee number.
The PAYROLL DATABASE will pop-up your list of
employees as you create a paystub. The personnel
information in the Employee Database is inserted
for you as you create a payroll record. Taxes are
calculated but can be changed. The pay stub can
be printed by selecting paystub from the menu.
Many government reports are required for
employees'. By using payroll you can print out
reports expediently.
A password can be assigned to payroll. Thus,
Payroll and the Employee databases are password
protected. The password will take effect after
leaving the program. The password can be changed,
but don't forget it.
Before filling in ANY form do the following very
carefully. PRINT a PAYROLL SUMMARY REPORT for ALL
Employees and for EACH Employee. Look at these
reports very carefully to make sure everything
appears correct.
This step determines the accuracy of ALL the forms
you will be filling in.
To prepare state and federal reports following the
suggested procedure below and the information on
the specific forms below.
SUGGESTED PROCEDURE:
- Input data requested.
