Can I enter YTD inside your payroll software?

0 votes
I am currently and have been now for numerous years a [Software Name Removed] payroll user - however, they are getting way too expensive for my pocketbook.

My payroll subscription runs out on March 2nd.  If I purchase your Payroll Mate software, can I enter payroll information beginning from January 1st, 2012?

Thanks,

Yes you can easily enter YTD information inside our payroll software.
 
Before you enter your YTD please make sure you:
 
1. Setup your company information.
 
2. Setup payroll settings including income, deduction and tax categories at the company level.
 
3. Enter your employees’ information including filing status and number of exemptions.
 
4. Setup and configure income, deduction and tax categories at the employee level.
 
Now you are ready to enter YTD payroll. Some tips:
 
1. You can override any values auto calculated by Payroll Mate.
 
2. If you want to see each and every check inside Payroll Mate, then you can go ahead and enter your checks one by one. Make sure to enter the correct pay date for each check. 
 
3. If you just want to enter the YTD values then you can create only one check per employee, with the correct YTD info.
 
4. You can also create a dummy check for each quarter for each employee, dating the check for the end of the quarter so you have correct values for form 941.
