Check writing software is an essential part of small business accounting solutions. When it comes to reliably producing paychecks for your workers, it’s a lot more involved than whipping out the personal checkbook. You need to calculate and withhold the appropriate payroll taxes for your business and your workers. You need that information to be organized and reported on your quarterly and end-of-year filing forms. And you need to know that your checks are secure, yet readily printable.
You may also be looking for companion check writing software to go along with direct deposit processing. Voided paycheck writing is still a useful tool to help employees track the information within discrete pay periods as well as YTD information. But no matter how your business has set up its accounting, you need paycheck software that is dependable, reasonably priced, and compatible with the rest of your small business data files. To this end, you’re not going to find a better answer than Advanced Micro Solutions (AMS).
