Payroll software for accountants is important for professionals who need to respond to an evolving marketplace. Using a powerful and reliable software solution like Advanced Micro Solutions can handle:
- Payroll
- Essential accounting requirements
- Forms filing services
The right module selection and customized features can help a single accounting professional do more than ever before. Likewise, with a site license, you can also network the AMS Payroll solution for multiple PCs and implement a large-scale payroll system. Keeping this all in mind, below is an introduction to our payroll software for accountants.
What Can Payroll Software Do?
Efficient software solutions require payroll and larger accounting operations to be integrated with one another. The things that you can avoid include:
- Duplicate data entry
- Struggling to import your existing data
Even small inefficiencies can add up for companies with a significant number of employees and contractors, or for accounting professionals who serve multiple business clients. That is why our payroll system is tied to our W-2/1099 Forms Filer.
The software platform provides all of the basic data management features that are necessary for modern accounting solutions and W-2/1099 forms filing. Easy account setup and versatile payee files will get you started, but you will not have to start over.
Data importing is readily accomplished for numerous types of files, including:
- Columnar Report File
- Tab Delimited Text File
- Comma Delimited Text File
- Lotus WK1 or dBase III DBF File
- QuickBooks 1099/W2 Print File
- Form Print File
- Federal 1099 MAG File
- Federal W-2 MAG File
- Lotus or Excel Files
New information can be entered onto a screen that resembles the actual filing forms or through a spreadsheet format. You can define default values for state codes and IDs. The information is then automatically saved. Client reports can be submitted via encrypted PDF files. You can also print the information directly onto pre-printed filing forms.
Discover the platform and start the process of revolutionizing your accounting operations.
