The best way to handle costly payroll errors is to prevent them. This 90-minute payroll management webinar gives tips that make processing easier and ways to verify every payroll variable before you send a final payroll to IT or an outside processor.
You'll learn to build efficient pre-processing checklists and a full-year calendar covering all pay frequencies, holidays and other dates that affect a cycle. You'll also create your own audit reports, use your vendor's reports, run a payroll preview, verify totals and build comparisons.
The session covers payroll ins and outs, including hires, terminations, leaves, pay increases, benefit deduction changes and employer payments.
