An integrated payroll system is an excellent step toward financial management in a small business. Payroll programs can take many forms. Some are stored on a computer, while others use the Internet. Some are stand-alone systems, while others are integrated. The payroll system your small business chooses will depend on your size, needs, and budget. But, in general, all small businesses can benefit from an integrated payroll tool. You just have to choose the correct type of payroll integration for your needs.
Advanced Micro Solutions offers one type of integrated payroll solution. If you’re upgrading your current system or purchasing a software for the first time, we can help you out.
Types of Integrated Payroll Systems
There are two types of integrated payroll options: those that work with HR tools, and those that integrate with other accounting platforms. Here’s what you need to know about both options:
- HR Integration: Some payroll programs integrate with human resources software. The idea is to glean maximum efficiency by combining all workforce management activities into a single platform. This works well for businesses who have significant HR needs, like a lengthy on-boarding process, frequent employee questionnaires, and more. However, this type of payroll integration can lead to overly complicated software tools. Putting too many features into a single program makes everyday functionality difficult. This can be detrimental to new and growing businesses.
- Accounting Integration: Other programs integrate payroll processes with different accounting features. This can include forms filing, tax reporting, and W-2/1099 form completion and distribution. This is an effective option regardless of a business’s human resources needs. This type of integrated payroll system also consolidates all business accounting into a single and simple software tool.
Advanced Micro Solutions offers accounting integration. This is the most beneficial type of payroll to the widest array of businesses. AMS Payroll, our accounting and payroll software, integrates seamlessly with the base W-2/1099 Forms Filer platform. This alleviates hurdles you may encounter during the end-of-year reporting season.
