PRELIMINARY

Introductions

The payroll system enables the employer to process its payroll through a
computerized system. A manual payroll system requires that the payroll be processed by hand
and is therefore a considerably slower procedure than using payroll system. The former
makes payroll processing simpler, and reduces errors, which are more likely with the manual
system.

Hourly workers are paid according to hours worked during the pay period. The
employer uses a time-keeping system to track hours and pay hourly employees accordingly. It
is critical, therefore, that each employees time is computed accurately. Many employers use
a time clock to track work hours. A manual payroll system requires computing the time clock

data by hand; this increases the likelihood of mistakes. The automated time-keeping system
allows the employer to import time clock data into payroll software. Specifically, the
employee uses a swipe card or badge, or the hands print or fingerprint method, to clock in
and out. Once the entries are transported into the payroll software, the software computes the
time worked. All the payroll staff member has to do is ensure the time is transported
appropriately and make the necessary edits.

The payroll system uses payroll software to computer all wages. Payroll software,
such as QuickBooks, PenSoft, Z-Pay, Ultipro and Sage Peachtree calculate gross-to-net
earnings based on the data the payroll representative inputs. Therefore, the result depends on
the accuracy of the input. Thus, if a terminated employee is due severance pay but the payroll
representative neglects to make the entry, the system will not pay it. Typically, the system is
reliable so long as the entries are correct. The automated system performs all types of
payments: hourly, overtime, double-time, salaries, commissions, bonuses, pay raises,
retroactive pay, wage deductions, auto payments and tuition reimbursements. Notably, the
automated system eliminates manual pay check writing. The system automatically generates
pay checks and stubs and enables direct deposit.

Salary and wage deductions are a necessary part of payroll processing. The employer
must take mandatory withholding from employee pay checks, including income tax, loan
payment, insurance and taxes. These taxes can be time-consuming and perplexing to compute
manually. A number of rules are attached to withholding tax calculations. With an automated
payroll system, the software has the tax rates hard-coded in the system. It calculates the
withholding tax for each employee based on the withholding conditions data input. This
reduces the likelihood of payroll tax errors.

Payroll System Definition

Payroll is the means by which a company pays its employees for services rendered.
The most common payroll frequencies are once per month or twice per month. The manual
payroll system typically serves small business well. Employers with up to 10 employees
tend to go with this system. It is inexpensive to set up however it results in longer payroll
processing and is prone to making errors. Wages, taxes and accounting information must be
documented, and checks must be printed. All this is done by hand with a manual payroll
system.

A company with up to 50 employees can benefit from a computerized in-house

payroll system. Once an employer invests in one, he has a program that will do his
calculations for him. Still, he must enter the information. The system pays the employee
based on his input. The time involved in this type of payroll processing is less than with a
manual system, but he must ensure his calculations and records are correct.

A payroll system is the method used by payroll professionals to pay employees

for their services. Regardless of the type of system used, there are basic functions that
must be performed calculation of salary, allowance, incentive and mileage or deduction
of tax, loan and payment.
