Audit the data in your payroll database and payrolls BEFORE they are processed. Reduce your correction payroll runs by up to 80%!
View User Guide
The Payroll Audit System assists the payroll service bureau in "scrubbing" your payroll data before and after payroll processing. This helps reduce the need for correction payroll runs, tax problems and a variety of other issues. The system consists of two main parts: Scheduled Audits and Pre-Process Audits.
MANAGEMENT CONSOLE
The majority of the Audit System management is accessed via a separate management console. Add/edit/remove audits. View reports on audit status, who is getting which audits and when, etc. Archive/purge log data.
SCHEDULED AUDITS
The Scheduled Audits are SQL queries that are run against the payroll database and the results emailed to specified recipients on a customizable schedule. These audits are completely customizable to allow for an infinite amount of possibilities. (Example: List companies with an incorrect tax setup.) Run audits daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly, yearly or even all throughout the business day. Any of the audits in the system can also be run manually (ad-hoc). The audits generate HTML tabular formatted emails to desired recipients and are easy to read and appealing to the eye. Audits may be set to be formatted as "alerts", using bold and noticeable colors.
UNLIMITED NUMBER OF AUDITS
The system comes preconfigured with approximately 100 different audits, ranging from invalid employee birthdates to missing taxes on W2 employees. These reports can help fulfill SAS70 audit requirements.
FULLY CUSTOMIZABLE
All of the audits performed by the Audit System are written in standard T-SQL code. Therefore, changes to audit parameters are easily made. For those experienced in SQL, fully custom audits can be written to analyze data in any of the payroll database tables.
PRE-PROCESS AUDITS
The Pre-Process Audit portion of the system provides a customized “Payroll Submit” screen in the payroll system which executes special SQL queries against the payroll. When users local to the service bureau (CSR's, Citrix users, etc.) enter the submit screen, the system automatically audits the payroll based on parameters that you define. (Example: W2 employees missing taxes, paycheck is over a certain amount threshold.) Preprocess audits can be configured to be mandatory or approvable. For mandatory audits, the item must be corrected before they are allowed to submit the payroll. For approvable audits they are given an “Approve” button which logs the user and time that they have approved it. Approvable audits can be assigned roles from the payroll system to allow only users in those roles to approve those audits. For remote clients, you can run the audits on the payroll before it is processed by using the customized Job Requests screen. If any audits fail, the payroll can be opened, corrected and re-submitted. This process will greatly reduce your correction payroll runs and tax department issues at quarter and year end.

Customize an employee import from a client’s data file...
View User Guide
The Employee Import Utility allows you to import new employees, update existing employees and import/update employee information in the payroll database from customizable, preconfigured Excel template files. Virtually any employee data can be imported/updated, from demographics to taxes to HR tables. Multiple levels of validation occur before an import can take place. (Example: When importing deductions, earnings and taxes the utility verifies that the items exist on the company level before allowing the import to proceed.) This helps prevent "bad" data from being imported into the payroll system. The utility can also be used for quick manual batch entry of employee data instead of using the new hire screen in the payroll system.
