Why Payroll Software Should Integrate With
Accounting Packages

• As a business owner or manager, it can be
  tiresome to have to enter employee salary details
  into the payroll software, and then manually
  enter it into the accounting system, too. Without
  integration between the different software, this
  will always be a thankless and time-consuming
  task. In duplicating data from the payroll
  software to your general ledger, aside from it
  being a lengthy task, there is also ample room
  for error, and as all good business owners and
  managers should know, errors can cost a company
  more than just money.
• However, all this hassle disappears when you
  switch to an integrated system, and heres how

• The benefits of integrated systems
• The overall efficiency of any business can be
  significantly improved when relevant data and
  information is provided only once. Having
  integrated payroll and accounting software that
  talk to each other, means that many time
  consuming and tedious tasks can be made much
  quicker, simpler and the risk of error is
  dramatically reduced.
• What can you do with an integrated system?
• Wage journals can easily and swiftly be created
  from finalized pay periods, and then sent
  instantly to the necessary accounting packages.

• With integration, whoever is using the system can
  directly send the payroll journal to the
  accounting package, eliminating manual workload
  and the risk of mistakes arising from the
  duplicate entry of data, that could prove costly.
• Payroll journal files can be customized to the
  accounting software provider, with the use of
  compatible files and built-in nominal ledger
  mapping. Mapping, in basic terms, communicates to
  the payroll where items get posted to in the
  accounting system, and can significantly reduce
  the time usually spent to perform these
  associated tasks.
• With certain software, users can choose if they
  want to include individual journal records for
  every employee, or whether they want to merge the
  records into totals for each unique payment date.

  businesses become more efficient and even save

  consider outsourcing to make you more
  cost-effective and efficient in many areas.

  pandemic, representatives can be contacted via
