EMPLOYER IDENTIFICATION

This can be any alphanumeric combination, but it is wise to use some simple system such as the Company initials or straight numbers. This system is a MULTI-COMPANY and MULTI-DEPARTMENT payroll system. The departments are entered at the DATA ENTRY level, so that employees can be moved from one department to another without any extensive changes to the files. If you need to assign employees to more than one Department in one pay period, you will need to use the JOB COSTING module.

EMPLOYER'S NORMAL PAY PERIOD

Acceptable pay periods are: If you enter any other period an ERROR message will appear at the bottom of the screen:

Pay period MUST be "1,"2","S",or "M"

Correct your entry with a valid response.
