FINANCE MANAGER II - Payroll
1d - USING THE DEMO ACCOUNTS
Included at no extra cost with the "Payroll" module, is a set of
sample/demo accounts for practice use. On your disk are some files
with the name of "WORK". In order to use these demo files, simply
copy all of the "WORK.*" files onto a blank disk to be used as your
demo disk. When starting up FINANCE MANAGER, use this disk as your
data disk and put it in the appropriate disk drive (usually B:). When
FINANCE MANAGER asks you for the File name, enter "WORK". The use of
these demo files will very likely get you going faster and help you to
use this module to your best advantage.
It is important to remember that you do not use these demo files when
you are setting up your own live data, since demo files obviously
contain existing practice-only data and demo employees. Setting up a
new "live" set of books, however, is very simple and is thoroughly
described in the following section.
1e - RUNNING THE PAYROLL MODULE
To run the "Payroll" module, you must first install it by following
the instructions under "Installing FINANCE MANAGER" in the "Getting
Started" Manual. After it is installed, follow the simple steps in
the order given below:
1. Start up FINANCE MANAGER per the instructions in the "Getting
Started" manual. Upon starting FINANCE MANAGER, you must decide
to use either live data or the practice-only demo accounts data
on the Payroll Documentation & Demo disk. If you prefer to
practice and experiment, you should remember to use the Demo
disk. If you wish to set up your own live Payroll, you should
put your FINANCE MANAGER General Ledger data disk in your drive
B: (not necessary if you have a hard disk).
2. At the disk drive prompt, enter the disk drive letter where you
put your Demo or G/L data disk, usually drive B: (or C: if you
have a hard disk).
3. At the Enter Filename prompt, enter the name of the data file you
want to use ("WORK" if you have the demo disk in drive B:, or if
you are using your live G/L data files enter the filename you are
using for your live data).
Remember, you can only use this module if you have previously set
up your General Ledger data files using the General Ledger
module. When using the demo data files, this has already been
done for you.
4. You will now be at the FINANCE MANAGER Master Menu.
5. OPTIONAL: If you have not already done so (when you set up your
G/L data files), you may go to the System Utilities
Menu and change any system defaults. This may,
however, be done at any time and is not necessary to
run FINANCE MANAGER. We do, however, suggest you set
up the "Compressed" and "Normal" print codes before
printing the Payroll reports, since you will find it is
required for a few of them.
Page 6
FINANCE MANAGER II - Payroll
6. Next you must add several accounts to your General Ledger Chart
of Accounts. See section 7a for details. These G/L accounts are
required to use the Payroll module. See your General Ledger
documentation manual on setting up your Chart of Accounts. If
you have these accounts already set up in your General Ledger
Chart of Accounts, this step is not necessary.
7. From the FINANCE MANAGER master menu: If you have floppy disks,
put your Payroll program disk into drive A: (if you have not
already done so). Then select menu "F5", and this will take you
into Payroll. If this is the first time you are using Payroll
for this set of books, the system will ask you: "Create new file
(Y/N):_", which you should answer with a "Y". This procedure
will create all the necessary Payroll data files. Don't worry it
will not damage your General Ledger data files.
8. From the Payroll main menu select "F6", and then "F4", in order
to set up your Payroll configuration settings. This step is
important since it will set up the interface with your General
Ledger Chart of Accounts. See section 7a for details.
9. Return to the Payroll Utilities menu and select "F5", to set up
your tax tables. These tax tables will calculate federal, state
and city taxes as well as Earned Income Credit. See section 7d
for details.
10. Return to the Payroll main menu and select "F4" to set up your
employees. See section 3 on employee accounts.
11. After setting up your employees, you may print an employee
listing report. See section 5 on reports.
12. Return to the Payroll main menu and select "F1" to input
transactions. See section 4 on transactions.
13. After you have entered some transactions, you may print a Payroll
Register report (select "F2" from the Payroll Reports menu) to
see what you have entered. See section 5 on reports.
14. Print any other reports as required. The most useful reports are
"PAYROLL REGISTER" and the "PAID PAYROLL RECAP".
These basic steps are merely intended to show you the order of events
in setting up new Payroll books.
Page 7
FINANCE MANAGER II - Payroll
SECTION TWO - THE PAYROLL MAIN MENU
The Payroll Main Menu is the starting point for all of the various
Payroll functions. It is a sort of "Table of Contents" for the
Payroll module. It can guide you to all of the other useful sub-menus
and practical features of the time and money-saving Payroll module.
The Payroll Main Menu appears as follows:
----------- PAYROLL MAIN MENU ----------
| |
| ESC Return to Master Menu |
| F1 Input TRANSACTIONS |
| F2 CHANGE/Delete Transactions |
| F3 REPORTS Menu |
| F4 Update EMPLOYEE ACCOUNTS |
| F5 Payroll Checks Menu |
| F6 Payroll Utility Menu |
| |
| |
| |
| |
| ENTER YOUR SELECTION: |
| Payroll configuration not set up |
----------------------------------------
Note that many of the selections are used to go on to other menus.
All of the menu selections are discussed in later sections in this
documentation. If you get a message, as above, saying "Payroll
configuration not set up" or "Tax Tables not set up" you should set up
these configurations by selecting "F6", "PAYROLL UTILITIES MENU" to
set these items up. For clarification, these procedures are discussed
in Section Seven.
As mentioned above, it is essential that you set up your
configuration. Jump to Section 7a to complete that easy-to-follow
procedure before continuing.
The next step is to set up your employee accounts. This procedure
follows in Section Three.
Page 8
FINANCE MANAGER II - Payroll
SECTION THREE - EMPLOYEE ACCOUNTS
Your Employee Accounts are the foundation of your Payroll. To set up,
or to change your employees, select "F4 Update EMPLOYEE ACCOUNTS" from
the Payroll main menu.
3a - WHAT ARE EMPLOYEE ACCOUNTS
Your employee accounts are used to keep track of all of your
employees, their address, overtime, holiday, sick leave, the amount of
time they worked, Pay frequency, deductions and liabilities. It is
important to remember that any person that is drawing a paycheck from
you, should be set up as an employee.
Whenever you hire a new employee, you must set up this new person in
the employee accounts. WHEN YOU ENTER A NEW EMPLOYEE INTO FINANCE
MANAGER HAVE THE EMPLOYEES COMPLETED W-4 FORM NEXT TO YOU, AS MOST OF
THE INFORMATION YOU WILL ENTER WILL COME DIRECTLY FROM THE EMPLOYEE'S
W-4 FORM. Each employee must be given a unique employee account
number, which can be any alphanumeric input up to four characters
long. This account number will then be used whenever you are entering
transactions for that employee.
3b - EMPLOYEE ACCOUNTS ORGANIZATION
Your employee account numbers, and their order within the program, are
totally up to you.
An important consideration for your employee account numbers is to
group your employees into account number ranges or in alphabetic
order. For example, give all of your employees who work in shipping,
account numbers 9000-9999. This may be useful when printing reports.
Remember to always leave enough room for new accounts to be added
within your selected range.
3c - EMPLOYEE ACCOUNTS DATA FIELDS
Each account number in your employee database represents one specific
employee. Along with this employee account number are kept other
elements of information about each employee. When setting up an
employee account, the following information will be needed:
EMPLOYEE NUMBER An alphanumeric input up to four characters used
to identify each employee. This can be any number
or group of letters or a combination of the two.
ACTIVE Enter "Y" if the employee is currently working for
you or "N" if he is not and you do not want
FINANCE MANAGER to continue to update his file.
NAME Enter the employee's full name (how it is listed
on his W-4 form). We suggest that you enter last
name, comma (,), first name. FINANCE MANAGER will
reverse the employee's name when printing labels,

between last and first names, the employee's name
will be printed as input.

3e - ENTERING YOUR OWN EMPLOYEE ACCOUNTS
When you actually enter your own employee accounts, it would be a good
idea to collate your employees into some kind of logical order in your
mind. This will be helpful to you later, each time you need to look
up employees by account number.
In order to enter employee accounts switch to your live data files.
To do this, simply return to the FINANCE MANAGER Master Menu (press
the ESC key until you are there). When you are at the Master Menu,
enter one more ESC. The program will then prompt "DO YOU WANT TO
RESTART (Y/N):_" enter "Y".
At this point (if you have your data on floppy disks) switch from the
Doc and Demo disk to your live G/L data diskette. Select your "real"
data file name. From the Master Main Menu select "F5". The system
should tell you that it did not find your Payroll files. Enter "Y" at
the "Create new Files" prompt. From the Payroll main menu, select
"F4" and you will be ready to enter your employee accounts.
1. At the input screen, the cursor will be positioned at the
employee account number field. Unless you are entering your very
first employee account number, there should be default data in
this field.
2. Instead of using the default data (if any), enter a new employee
account number of your choice. The step by step input procedure
for an example employee account is as follows:

NOTE: Another alternative is to enter individual transactions
broken down by pay periods for each employee, and then
enter manual checks to pay these transactions. Make sure
that you delete any preexisting payroll transactions in the
General Ledger. You do not want to have these transactions
listed twice. It is always best to start this module at
the beginning of the year to avoid any confusion.
42. Once all of the data has been entered correctly, answer "Y" at
the "Are inputs correct(Y/N):_" prompt. If you answer with a
"N", the cursor will return to the Employee Number prompt and
previous input will be ignored.
43. If you answered with a "Y", the new employee account is added and
you will automatically return to the employee number prompt. You
are then ready for more input.
NOTE: Please note that the employee number you have just added is
automatically added to the "pop up" window which lists all
accounts. Use the cursor keys (when at the employee number
field), in order to scroll through the active employee
Page 16
FINANCE MANAGER II - Payroll
accounts to search for the account you have just added. If
you have added your account correctly, it will
automatically be in order within this list. The list reads
from left to right.
44. The cursor will once again be at the employee number field.
Repeat steps 2-41 until you have finished entering all of your
employees.
45. Make sure you answer the prompt "Are inputs correct (Y/N):_" with
a "Y" to save your inputs before pressing the ESC key. Otherwise
all of the data you just entered will be lost and you will have
to re-enter it. To leave the current input field and return to
the previous menu simply press the ESC key.
3f - CHANGING EXISTING EMPLOYEES
The steps below outline the procedure for making changes to your
existing employee accounts.
1. Select "F4" at the Payroll main menu.
2. With the cursor at the employee number prompt, type in the
account number you wish to change. If you wish to accept the
default account press ENTER. To choose a different account, move
the highlighted pointer through the account list that appears on
the screen by using the up and down keypad arrows.
3. Because the account number you have entered is an existing
employee number, the system prompts:
ACTIVE ACCOUNT Modify/Delete/Quit(M/D/Q):_
Answer this prompt with "M". You are now in the change mode.
4. Make any desired changes the existing data, but you are not able
to change the account number. Press ENTER to leave any field
unchanged.
5. If you want to go back to a previous field while you are changing
data, you may do so by pressing the Backspace key.
6. After you make the necessary changes to your data, press ENTER or
the PgDn key until the system prompts "Are inputs correct
(Y/N):_". Type "Y" to save your changes. If you enter a "N",
the system will ignore all changes and the cursor will return to
the account number field.
3g - DELETING EMPLOYEES
When deleting employees, there cannot be any transactions for that
employee number. If there are transactions for the account to be
deleted, FINANCE MANAGER will not allow the account to be deleted.
Page 17
FINANCE MANAGER II - Payroll
Be sure to practice deleting accounts on your demo WORK file before
you delete a "real" employee from your "real" data files.
To delete an employee account follow the steps below:
1. Select "F4" at the Payroll main menu.
2. Then enter the number of the account to be deleted while at the
employee account number prompt. The system will then prompt:
ACTIVE ACCOUNT Modify/Delete/Quit(M/D/Q):_
3. Select "D". The system will prompt you "Are you sure (Y/N):_" If
you answer with "Y" the account will then be deleted.
3h - SUGGESTED METHOD FOR SETTING BEGINNING BALANCES
When setting up your Payroll, as well as employee beginning balances,
you must be sure that you are in balance with your General Ledger.
This is a vitally important procedure to remember when setting up your
books. The following steps will insure that you are in balance:
1. Set up all your employee accounts with a zero beginning balance
first.
2. You then have two options to enter any prior payroll balance:
3. You may enter them in the Employee Beginning Balance input
fields. These balances will then show as a lump sum on your
year-to-date Payroll Register report and W-2s. If you are
starting a new accounting year and have preexisting vacation and
sick leave balances we recommend for those to be entered as a
total sum in there corresponding fields.
4. Or you may enter them as individual transactions (see section 4),
broken down by prior pay periods for each employee. We recommend
entering all your prior payroll balances as individual
transactions. Then enter manual checks to pay all transactions
just entered. As these transactions will be posted to the
General Ledger you should ensure that you have removed any
previously entered G/L transactions to avoid duplicate data.
5. After all beginning balances have been entered, print a
year-to-date (Jan-Dec) Payroll Register report to verify all
current employee balances for your selected pay period. To
verify the correct balances for sick leave and holiday print the
Vacation & Sick Report.
6. After you have verified all account balances you are now up to
date and fully operational. If you want your General Ledger
Payroll account to reflect the current balances of all Payroll
accounts, you should go to the Payroll Utility main menu and post
the transactions to the General Ledger. See section 7c for
detailed information.
Note: Make sure that you delete any preexisting payroll
Page 18
FINANCE MANAGER II - Payroll
transactions in the General Ledger, so they will not be
listed twice.
Page 19
FINANCE MANAGER II - Payroll
SECTION FOUR - TRANSACTIONS
4a - WHAT ARE TRANSACTIONS
One transaction should be entered into the payroll system at the end
of each pay period. Each entered transactions will become a check to
the employee when paid. Thus only enter one transaction for each
payroll check needed.
4b - TRANSACTION DATA FIELDS
The transaction input fields are described below. Each of these
fields has a default which is the last data entered into that field.
This default saves keystrokes when doing repetitive inputting.
EMPLOYEE NUMBER This is the account number for the employee for
which you are entering a transaction. Note that
the employee's name will automatically appear when
an active account number is entered as well as the
frequency of the employee's pay. REQUIRED.
PAY PERIOD ENDING This is the last day of the pay period) not the
date on the check). REQUIRED.
HOURS PAID These are the total number of hours for regular,
overtime, sick, vacation or holiday, the employee
will be paid for this pay period. Notice that
Finance Manager will automatically calculate the
number of regular hours paid for each employee.
REQUIRED, HOURLY EMPLOYEES ONLY.
OTHER EARNINGS 1&2 These input fields would include any other
compensation the employee receives (car allowance
etc.) If this compensation should be taxed enter
"Y" in the following "Taxable(Y/N)" field. Enter
"N" if this compensation should not be taxed. If
"N" is selected these amounts WILL NOT be shown on
the employees W-2. OPTIONAL
OTHER DEDUCTION This deduction can be used for miscellaneous
deductions from the employees paycheck. If this
deduction should be taxed enter "Y" in the
following "Taxable(Y/N)" field. Enter "N" if this
deduction should not be taxed. These amounts WILL
be shown in box 10 of the employees W-2.
OPTIONAL.
ACCOUNT The "Account" field allows you to select the G/L
account number to which the Other Earnings and
Other Deduction amount fields correspond (e.g. for
a car allowance other earnings you would select
your G/L car allowance expense account).
OPTIONAL.
Page 20
FINANCE MANAGER II - Payroll
4c - GETTING FAMILIAR WITH TRANSACTIONS
Before entering your "real" transactions, follow the procedures listed
below by practicing with the WORK demo accounts. This will aid you in
learning how to enter transactions without using live data.
1. From the Payroll Main Menu select "F1". You will then be
prompted for the following information:
Employee Number :_____
Pay Period Ending :__-__-__
HOURS PAID:Regular:_______Overtime:_______Sick:_______Vacation:_______
Holiday:_______ TOTAL HOURS:
Other Earnings 1:__________ Taxable(Y/N):_ Account:____
Other Earnings 2:__________ Taxable(Y/N):_ Account:____
Other Deduction :__________ Taxable(Y/N):_ Account:____
2. The cursor will be positioned at the "Employee Number" prompt.
On the lower half of the screen you will see the existing
employee accounts appear. Seeing these accounts is helpful when
you are selecting employees.
The selected employee account is highlighted. In order to move
to other accounts, press the up or down arrow keys on the right
keypad. If you move the highlighting pointer down a few lines,
notice how the list scrolls.
You may select an existing account number by moving the
highlighting pointer up or down to the desired account and then
pressing the ENTER key.
This advanced feature allows you to scroll through your employee
account listing without ever having to memorize, or even type in,
an account number.
3. To return to the previous menu, press ESC.
Before entering your own transactions, practice adding, changing and
deleting transactions by using the WORK demo files. This will
familiarize you with how to enter, change, or delete transactions.
Changing and deleting transactions is described in the following
sections.
4d - ENTERING TRANSACTIONS
As you enter each transaction, FINANCE MANAGER saves this information
and updates the employee listing as appropriate.
1. In order to begin entering transactions, select "F1" from the
Payroll Main Menu. You will then be prompted for the following
information:
Page 21
FINANCE MANAGER II - Payroll
Employee Number :____
Pay Period Ending :__-__-__
HOURS PAID:Regular:_______Overtime:_______Sick:_______Vacation:_______
Holiday:_______ TOTAL HOURS:
Other Earnings 1:__________ Taxable(Y/N):_ Account:____
Other Earnings 2:__________ Taxable(Y/N):_ Account:____
Other Deduction :__________ Taxable(Y/N):_ Account:____
2. When entering transactions, the last transaction entered always
provides the default data (unless of course, this is your very
first transaction). To accept the default data, simply press
ENTER and you will move to the next field. In order to change
data, simply type in the new data and then press ENTER.
3. First enter the employee number:
Employee Num:SMIT
The existing employees will appear on the screen. You may either
select an employee from this list by using keypad arrow keys (as
described earlier), or you may type in the employee number. If
you are using the keypad arrow keys, be sure the Num Lock key is
off.
NOTE: When you enter the employee number the following message
appears:
FREQUENCY:BIWEEKLY
This message reminds you of the employee's pay schedule.
4. Enter the date the Pay Period ends:
Pay Period Ending:05-08-89
5. Enter the total number of hours for regular, overtime, sick,
vacation or holiday to be paid:
Regular:80.00__ Overtime:3.00___ Sick:0.00____ Vacation:0.00____
Holiday:0.00____
6. Enter any other earnings and/or deductions, as well as taxable
flags, and account numbers:
Other Earnings 1:10.00_____ Taxable(Y/N):Y Account:5230
Other Earnings 2:0_________ Taxable(Y/N):_ Account:____
Other Deduction :0_________ Taxable(Y/N):_ Account:____
7. At this point FINANCE MANAGER will calculate and display the
deductions for this transaction. After the automatic calculation
is made the following message will be displayed:
Change Payroll Calculations (Y/N):_
Page 22
FINANCE MANAGER II - Payroll
Note: Answer this message with "Y" if you need to manually change
the computers calculated payroll deductions. Otherwise
answer with "N". If you had preexisting payroll or were
calculating earnings and deductions differently than the
automatic method used by Finance Manager you would answer
the above prompt with "Y". You will then be allowed to
change each of the calculated amounts.
8. If you are entering a transaction and you want to go back to a
previous field, use the Backspace key.
9. You may abort the transaction at any time by pressing ESC.
10. After you have entered all your transactions the system will
prompt you:
Are inputs correct (Y/N):Y
Answer the prompt with "Y" if you wish to save the transaction.
The cursor will then automatically return to the Employee Number
field for the next transaction. If you answer this prompt with a
"N", you will return to the Employee Number field and all prior
inputs will be ignored and the cursor returns to the first input
field.
11. After you have entered all your transactions, press the ESC key
to return to the Payroll Main Menu.
4e - CHANGING EXISTING TRANSACTIONS
If you discover an error in an earlier transaction, or if you would
like to change previously entered information, FINANCE MANAGER allows
you to do so. Outlined below are the procedures for changing
previously entered transactions.
1. Select "F2" at the Payroll Main Menu.
2. The system prompts you for "ENTER DATA FOR PAYROLL TRANSACTION
SEARCH".
3. Enter data in the fields you want to search for. For example, if
you want to search for all transactions which have a pay period
ending date of "05-06-89", you would move to the Pay Period
Ending field and enter the date. Upper and lower case does not
matter in alphanumeric fields, and you do not have to complete
the field. For example, if you entered only the first part of
the date "05", FINANCE MANAGER will find all dates which begin
with "05" (i.e. "05-06-89"). You could also add an employee
number parameter to the search and, consequently, find only the
"05" pay period dates for a particular employee.
Any field left blank is an assumed wild card for that field.
Thus if you leave ALL of the fields blank, all transactions are
selected by the search. Either press ENTER or the PgDn key until
you are prompted with "Are Inputs Correct (Y/N):_". If your
entries are correct enter "Y". If you enter "N" you will return
to the first input screen to start again.
To assist you in finding an employee or chart of accounts account
Page 23
FINANCE MANAGER II - Payroll
number, pressing the "F2" key while at the corresponding input
field will display a pop-up accounts window. You can now scroll
through your accounts listing and select the appropriate account
to search for. Pressing "Enter" or "Backspace" will remove the
pop-up accounts window.
4. Next, FINANCE MANAGER searches for all transactions containing
the values you have specified. As each transaction is displayed,
the program displays the following prompt:
Modify/Delete/Continue/Reverse/Begin/End/+/-/Quit:_
You must select M,D,C,R,B,E,+,-, or Q. Where:
M = Modify (change) transaction shown.
D = Delete (remove) transaction shown.
C = Continue (find next transaction that matches search).
R = Reverse continue (find prior transaction that matches
search).
B = Beginning (go to first transaction in file).
E = Ending (go to last transaction in file).
+ = Go to next consecutive transaction in file.
- = Go to prior consecutive transaction in file.
Q = Quit transaction search.
5. As long as you continue to answer the above prompt with "C",
FINANCE MANAGER continues searching for all transactions
containing the values you have specified. Selecting "R" does the
same as "C" except it searches backwards.
6. Answering the prompt with a "+", causes FINANCE MANAGER to
display the next consecutive transaction; a "-" shows you the
previous transaction (regardless of search parameters).
7. Entering a "B" or an "E" will take you to the Beginning or End of
the transaction file respectively. It ignores search parameters.
8. When the search function displays the transaction you wish to
change, answer the prompt with an "M" (Modify).
9. You are now in the change mode. Remember, ENTER leaves a field
unchanged. Change data in any field by typing in the new value
for the given field. If you change any payroll number FINANCE
MANAGER will recalculate the earnings, deductions, employer
liability and accrued vacation and sick hours at the bottom of
the screen.
10. FINANCE MANAGER will tell you if the transaction has already been
posted to your General Ledger. If the transaction has been
posted you will not be able to make ANY changes. This is
necessary to avoid out-of-balance conditions with your General
Ledger.
If you need to change the fields of a posted transaction we
recommend that you enter a new transaction to reflect any
adjustment to the original transaction.
11. If you have made a mistake, or you would like to return to a
previous field, simply use the Backspace key. Use the ESC key to
ignore your changes and return to the Main Menu.
Page 24
FINANCE MANAGER II - Payroll
12. After you have made all necessary changes to your transactions
the program will prompt you "Are inputs correct (Y/N):_". Answer
"Y" if you wish to save them. The cursor will then return to the
first input screen and you can continue on. Answer "N" and the
system will ignore all changes and return to the first input
field.
13. If you press the ESC key the system will prompt you: "FIND
ANOTHER (Y/N):_" if you answer "Y" your cursor returns to the
first input screen. Answer "N" you will return to the main menu.
4f - DELETING TRANSACTIONS
To delete or remove a transaction PERMANENTLY, do the following:
1. Select "F2" at the Payroll Main Menu.
2. Enter search data and find desired transaction as described in
"Changing Transactions".
3. When the transaction you wish to delete is displayed on the
screen, answer "D" at the prompt below.
Modify/Delete/Continue/Reverse/Begin/End/+/-/Quit:
5. After you have deleted the desired transaction(s), you may use
the "Sort" function. (See Section Seven "Other features and
functions - Sorting Transactions.") When sorting the
transactions, the program frees disk space which was formerly
used by the now deleted transactions.
PAID (Not posted) To delete a paid (not posted) transaction you must
TRANSACTIONS: first void the check and then you will be allowed to
delete the transaction.
PAID & POSTED To delete a paid and posted transaction all you have
TRANSACTIONS: to do is delete the transaction. Finance Manager
will automatically delete the transaction and create
a reversal transaction to be posted to the G/L next
time you do a posting.
4g - POINTS TO REMEMBER
When searching for transactions remember that the transaction file
will be shown in the order it was last sorted by. See section 7b
"Sorting Transactions" for more information.
When you delete a posted transaction, Finance Manager will remove the
transaction from the payroll system as well as make a reversing entry
to be posted to the General Ledger. The net effect will be as if the
transaction was never entered.

FINANCE MANAGER II - Payroll
SECTION FIVE - REPORTS
The Payroll Reports Menu allows you to generate a full spectrum of
Payroll reports from your data base. The reports menu ("F3" from the
Payroll Main Menu) appears as follows:
--------- PAYROLL REPORTS MENU ---------
| |
| ESC Return to Payroll Main Menu |
| F1 Payroll Journal |
| F2 Payroll Register |
| F3 Check Register |
| F4 Vacation & Sick Report |
| F5 Employee Listing |
| F6 Employee Address Labels |
| F7 Paid Payroll Recap |
| F8 Quarterly Tax Summary |
| F9 Non-Posted Transaction Journal|
| F10 General Ledger Distribution |
| ENTER YOUR SELECTION: |
| |
----------------------------------------
Reports can be generated to show results for a specific month, a range
of months, a quarter, a year, a pay period, etc. All reports may be
generated at any time and for any 12 month range. This means that you
are not limited to printing a report only once, and it also means that
you can print a report for a prior period as well.
Samples of each report are shown in Appendix A, and may be printed
while using the DEMO accounts.
5a - GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR GENERATING REPORTS
While printing any report you may, if desired, interrupt the printing
in one of two ways:
PAUSE THE PRINTER: When you are printing reports on your printer,
you may pause the printing by pressing any key.
Please keep in mind that most printers have a
print buffer. Consequently, the report
continues to print until the buffer is empty.
Pressing any key again will continue your
printout. This function will not work if you
are sending reports to the screen, since reports
will stop automatically as each screen is full.
STOP THE PRINTER: If while printing, you wish to stop the printer
and return to the menu, all you have to do is
press the "Esc" key. Please keep in mind that
most printers have a print buffer, causing the
report to continue to print until the buffer is
empty. You will, however, return to the menu
immediately.
Page 26
FINANCE MANAGER II - Payroll
When generating reports, you have three output destination options.
First, you may send the reports to the screen. Second, if you have a
printer, you can print a hard copy. Finally, you can send your
reports to a disk file. With this useful option, reports can be
stored and then printed at a later date.
This "Destination" prompt is an option for each of the available
reports. To select the destination, answer the prompt below:
TO SCREEN/PRINTER/DISK (S/P/D):__
If you select "D" for disk, the system will prompt you for a disk
"filename". Enter a filename of up to eight characters. The file
will be saved on your data disk, with the file extension of ".RPT".
If a file with the name entered already exists, the system will tell
you so and ask if you want to delete the old file. If you answer "N",
the new report will be appended to the already existing disk file.
For some reports, you also need to specify reporting dates via the
"Date" prompt. The date prompt appears as follows:
ENTER DATE RANGE FOR REPORTS:
STARTING Month:__ Year:__
ENDING Month:__ Year:__
These dates determine which months and years are shown on your
reports. The ending month and year must be within twelve months of
the starting month and year (maximum 12 month range). To get a
year-to-date report you might select the dates 1-89 through 12-89.
Likewise, if you want a first quarter report you should select 1-89
through 3-89.
When entering prompts for reports, remember that you may back up to a
previous field by pressing the Backspace key. If you want to go back
to the reports menu while you are at the input screen, press ESC.

SECTION SIX - WRITING EMPLOYEE PAYCHECKS
This section will discuss how to print Payroll checks, void checks,
and enter manual (handwritten) checks, if desired.
In order to get to the Payroll Checks menu, select "F5" from the
Payroll Main menu. It appears as follows:
---------- PAYROLL CHECKS MENU ---------

| |
| |
| |
| |
| |
| |
| |
| ENTER YOUR SELECTION: |
| |
----------------------------------------
We will discuss each of the above menu selections in the sections
which follow.
6a - PRINTING CHECKS
Load your printer with your pre-printed continuous-form checks and
check to be sure you have set up the Payroll configuration (utilities
menu) for the checks you will be using (Nebs check form # 9001).
Select "F1" from the checks menu and you will be prompted for the
following information:
NOTE: In order to print continuous form checks you need an 85 column
printer.
Enter DATE for Checks:__-__-__
Enter NEXT Check Number:____
G/L Check Account Number:____
Payroll for type(A,W,B,S,M):_
a. Enter the date you want printed on your checks.
b. Enter the check number of the first check in the printer
(FINANCE MANAGER will not print the check number on check
lineups). If your checks do not have pre-printed check
numbers, enter the number you wish to have printed on the
first LIVE (non-line up) check. FINANCE MANAGER will
automatically increment the checks numbers for the live
printed checks.
Page 36
FINANCE MANAGER II - Payroll
c. Enter the General Ledger checking account number for the
checks you are writing. It is important that you use the
correct G/L account number otherwise your funds for this
check(s) will come out of the wrong account. Notice when you
reach this section, how FINANCE MANAGER will display the
account number listing on your screen so you will not have to
memorize any account numbers.
d. Enter the category for which you want checks to be printed.
Enter "A" (all), "W" (weekly), "B" (biweekly), "S"
(semi-monthly) or "M" (monthly).
e. After entering the category FINANCE MANAGER will ask you if
you want printer lineup.
Print Alignment Pattern (Y/N):_
Answer with a "Y" until you have the checks properly lined up.
When you answer this prompt with a "N", your checks will be
printed.
Until you answer the alignment pattern with a "N", you may at any time
abort the check printing process and return to the menu by pressing
the ESC key.
6b - VOIDING PRINTED CHECKS
Check written to a specific employee may be voided by selecting "F2"
from the checks menu. This function will allow you to void the last
check written and also mark the transaction(s) unpaid again, either
computer generated or manual. Upon selecting this function the
following screen will appear:
Enter Check Number to Void:____
If you cannot remember which check number you wanted to void simply
hit ENTER. FINANCE MANAGER will display on the lower half of the
screen all checks written, starting with the last one.
6c - ENTERING MANUAL CHECKS
Another great feature included in the FINANCE MANAGER Payroll module
is the ability to enter checks manually. This allows you the
flexibility of hand writing checks. You simply write the check by
hand if you do not want to do a full check run or do not have
pre-printed checks.
In order to use this feature, select "F3" from the Checks menu. Upon
selecting this function you will be prompted as listed below:
Enter DATE for Checks :__-__-__
Enter NEXT Check Number :____
G/L Check Account Number :____
Payroll for type(A,W,B,S,M):_
Enter the DATE, CHECK NUMBER, G/L ACCOUNT NUMBER AND PAY FREQUENCY as
Page 37
FINANCE MANAGER II - Payroll
in section 6a. This procedure is just like printing computerized
checks, except that no check will be printed.
Finance Manager will then display all the transactions (one at a time)
that are not paid so you can select which ones to pay.
When a transaction to be paid is found you will be prompted for "PAY
THIS EMPLOYEE". Answer with a "Y" to pay or "N" to skip and not pay
the transaction.
After all non-paid transactions are shown you will then be returned to
the Checks Menu for further processing.

----------------------------------------
In this section we will discuss each function as well as its uses and
features. Since setting up the Configuration settings are required
before you will be able to enter any transactions, we will discuss
this selection first.
7a - CONFIGURATION SETTINGS
The configuration settings allow you to configure this module to your
specific company, and to its specific General Ledger account numbers.
This configuration is very important to your transactions, for
pre-printed continuous form checks and to the General Ledger account
numbers used. We recommend using Nebs checks form #9001 and either
standard business window envelopes or Nebs form #775 DU-O-VUE Dual
window envelopes. For the W-2s we recommend using Nebs W-2s form
#9852. Nebs toll free order number is 1-800-225-9550.

The configuration settings must be set up for each set of books you
have. Be sure to carefully employ the following procedures when
setting up the configuration settings.
Prior to setting up this configuration, you must set up (add) several
Payroll accounts to your G/L Chart of Accounts. These accounts must
be active accounts in your G/L Chart of Accounts in order to be able
to use the Payroll Module correctly (i.e. do not use these account
numbers for any General Ledger transactions - only for use by the
Payroll module).
These accounts are used as interface accounts and posting accounts
between the Payroll module and your General Ledger module. You can
not use the Payroll module without these important accounts even if
you want to use the Payroll module as a stand alone module. Set up
one of each, of the following accounts in your G/L Chart of Accounts
for Payroll:
a. FICA Liability (type L) account
b. FICA Expense (type E) account
c. FUTA Liability (type L) account
d. FUTA Expense (type E) account
e. SUTA Liability (type L) account
f. SUTA Expense (type E) account
g. SDI Liability (type L) account
h. SDI Expense (type E) account
i. Other payroll tax Liability (type L) account
j. Other payroll tax Expense (type E) account
k. Federal Withholding (type L) account
l. State Withholding (type L) account
m. City Withholding (type L) account
n. Salary & Wages (type E) account
o. Checking account (type A) if not already set up
p. Extra Deductions (type L) account
Page 40
FINANCE MANAGER II - Payroll
When setting up the Payroll check printing feature for your continuous
checks and other forms, you must specify in the following
configuration what and where you want to have the following fields
printed:
ID#'S FED Enter your employer federal identification number
as it will be listed on your W-2 forms.
STATE Enter your employer state identification number as
it will be listed on your W-2 forms.
COMPANY Enter your company name as it will be listed on
your W-2 forms.

DETAIL POSTING Allows the option of posting transactions to your
TO G/L (Y/N) General Ledger in detail or summary format.
Selecting detail posting will post each Payroll
transaction as a individual General Ledger
transaction and you can post at any time; while
answering "N" will cause the Payroll transactions
to be grouped and summarized when posted to the
General Ledger. Which ever method you choose the
financial results will be the same. There is one
other difference, however, if you select the
detail posting, the actual Payroll transaction
date will be used when posting to the General
Ledger, while summary posting will prompt you for
a POSTING DATE and will post every entered
transaction to the posting date (even those with
different month dates). If you are a beginner and
do not have many transactions, we suggest that you
select "Y" at this prompt.
WORK DAYS/ Enter the actual number of days your employees
YEAR will work each year including all holidays,
usually 260 (52x5) days.
HOURS PER Enter the number of hours your employees will work
DAY, WEEK, for the pay periods listed. When calculating for
SEMI-MONTH, Semi-Month and Month, calculate the hours per
MONTH year. Example: If your employees work 40 hours
per week and are paid semi-monthly, multiply 40 by
52 weeks in the year, divided by the 24 pay
periods per year to equal 86.67 hours per pay
period.
FICA, FUTA, SUTA, For these fields, enter the percentage of tax, the
Page 41
FINANCE MANAGER II - Payroll
SDI, OTHER yearly maximum taxable income limit, and the G/L
employer liability accounts as well as employer
expense accounts for these taxes.
FICA is paid by both the employee and employer at
the percent input.
FUTA is paid by the employer.
SUTA is paid by the employer.
SDI is paid by either the employer or the
employee. Answer the "EMPLY PAYS" prompt with "Y"
to have the employee pay this amount, or enter "N"
to have the employer pay. In most states this is
paid by the employer ("N").
G/L ACCOUNTS Enter here the account numbers you have created
for: FICA, FUTA, SUTA, SDI, Other and Extra
Deductions in the G/L Chart of Accounts in their
respective fields. An account number listing will
appear on the screen when you are at this prompt.
These accounts are used to keep track of the total
amounts deducted for liabilities and expenses. If
you do not deduct from the employee's paycheck or
you do not pay a particular amount you may enter a
"0" for this account number.
G/L LIABILITY Enter here the account numbers you have created
ACCOUNTS for: Federal withholding, State withholding and
City withholding in the G/L chart of Accounts. If
you are not required to pay any one of the above
withholding taxes, and have not set up an account
in the General Ledger you may enter "0" for this
account number.
G/L EXPENSE Enter here the account number you have created for
ACCOUNTS the Salary & Wages account in the G/L chart of
accounts. REQUIRED.
CHECK WRITING At the "Print Check#(Y/N):_" prompt answer "Y" if
you want the check number to be printed and "N" if
you have the check number already printed on your
checks."
At the "Print Address(Y/N):_" prompt, answer "Y"
if you want your employee's address to be printed
on his check, or "N" if you do not want his
address to be printed on his check.
At the "Name Location:__ __" prompt. Enter a
number between 32 and 36 in the row field (which
indicates the number of lines from the top of the
check starting with the first line on the stub)
and a number between 2 and 29 in the column field
(which indicates the number of columns from the
edge of the check, after the perforations). These
Page 42
FINANCE MANAGER II - Payroll
numbers will place the name and address so that it
will show correctly when using a window envelope.
(Standard business window envelope uses Row 34 and
COL 11).
FINANCE MANAGER will then ask you "Are inputs correct (Y/N):Y". If
you take the default of "Y" then you be notified that FINANCE MANAGER
is saving your configuration and then you will return to the Payroll
Utilities menu. If you answer "N" the cursor will return to "ID#'S
FED" field and you can start again.
7b - SORTING TRANSACTIONS
The Payroll module normally keeps transactions organized in the order
in which they are input. The Sort function allows the user to sort or
organize the transactions by: date of input, transaction date,
employee order or check number order.
The sort procedure is not a required feature but it is useful, for
example, when printing transaction journals or employee balance
reports and you would like to insure that all transactions are in date
order. To accomplish this, all you have to do is select date order
sort. It would be a good practice to sort the transactions once a
month before printing your reports. The sort order does not affect
any report balances and it is purely for cosmetic purposes. When
sorting transactions this will also free up disk space which was
formally occupied by deleted transactions.
To start sorting transactions, select "F1" at the Payroll Utilities
Menu. The following screen appears:
----------- SELECT SORT ORDER ----------
| |
| ESC Return to Utilities Menu |
| F1 Transaction Input Order |
| F2 Date Order |
| F3 Employee Order |
| F4 Check Number Order |
| |
| |
| |
| |
| |
| |
| ENTER YOUR SELECTION: |
| |
----------------------------------------
1. Select the order in which you would like to sort the transactions
by.
2. FINANCE MANAGER automatically sorts all transactions.
3. Press any key to exit and return to the Payroll Main Menu when the
sort is completed.
If you have more transactions than memory can hold at one time, the
Page 43
FINANCE MANAGER II - Payroll
default disk drive is used to store a temporary file while sorting
transactions. It is important to remember, therefore, that the
default drive must have adequate remaining disk space, and it must NOT
be "write protected" .
The system will tell if there is not enough memory on your default
drive to sort your file, the sort will abort and you must put a
formatted, blank disk in your default drive (usually drive A:) before
selecting your sort order again.
7c - POSTING TO THE GENERAL LEDGER
Payroll Utilities Menu selection "F2" will post transactions entered
into this module to your General Ledger accounts. Depending on
whether you selected the detail or summary post option in the
configuration (described above) your Payroll transactions are posted
according to the option you selected.
You'll be pleased to know that this posting procedure is a smart
procedure. It will only post the transactions which have not already
been posted. Because of this incredible time saving feature, you may
accidentally post as many times as you wish without worry of any
errors or double posting.
Note: This posting procedure will only post the transactions (checks)
which have already been paid.
This posting process is mandatory in order to interface with the
General Ledger. Without running this procedure, no transactions or
activity from this module will shown on your General Ledger
reports.
NOTE: After this posting procedure is complete, the transactions which
were posted can no longer be changed.
Because of this unique safety feature, we recommend that you only post
after you are absolutely sure all transactions have been entered
correctly and that any adjustments have been made. Generally, a good
rule for you to follow is to post transactions once a month, on the
last day of that month.
After you have run this procedure, you can print any General Ledger
reports, and all paid payroll from this module will be automatically
included in your General Ledger reports.
In order to run this procedure, select "F2" on the Payroll Utilities
menu. If you selected the detail posting option the posting will
commence. If you did not select detail posting you will then be
prompted for a posting date. This prompt is as follows:
Enter Post Transaction Date:__-__-__
When using the summary post option this date will show for all of your
Payroll transactions in the General Ledger as the date of posting.
Usually this date should be the current date (i.e. the last date for
the current month). If detail posting was selected the Payroll
transactions in your General Ledger will have the same dates as they
do in the Payroll Journal.
Page 44
FINANCE MANAGER II - Payroll
7d - PAYROLL TAX TABLES
WARNING: It is very important that you enter your Tax Table data
correctly. Hooper International assumes no liability for
errors. We consider it mandatory to test your payroll
deductions by manually calculating your payroll to verify
that all deductions are correct.
The payroll tax tables contain all of the Federal, State and City tax
information as well as any other information about Earned Income
Credit for your particular state. FINANCE MANAGER needs these numbers
to calculate your employee's taxes and withholdings. Many states and
cities have different percentages and these percentages are liable to
change every year. With FINANCE MANAGER you can modify the tables
yourself to keep them current with changing tax laws.
By selecting "F5" from the Payroll Utilities menu you will see the
following screen:
TAX TABLE(F,S,C,E):_ DEDUCT FED TAX(Y/N):_ Max Amount:__________
MARITAL TABLE(M/S/H):_ ANNUAL DEDUCTION:Amt:________ Pct:______%Greater:_

income tax guide allows an alternative to entering a dollar
amount. You can also use this field if your state gives the
option of a dollar amount or a percentage amount as the annual
deduction amount.
Pct:17____%
7. For state or city tax only. Use if you are in a state or city
which requires you to take either a dollar amount or a percentage
amount and gives a qualifier. For example, your state income tax
guide tells you to take either $5,000 or 17% of the gross income
which ever is greater. Enter "Y". Or your state income tax guide
may tell you to take either $5,000 or 17% of the gross income
which ever is less. You enter "N".

press the PgDn key and FINANCE MANAGER will prompt "Are Inputs Correct
(Y/N):_". If you answer "Y" FINANCE MANAGER will save your inputs and
the cursor will return to the Tax Table field. Continue to enter your
other tax tables. If you enter "N" at the prompt, the cursor will
return to the Tax Table field and will allow you to reenter your
inputs. It is very important that you enter the correct data into the
correct fields otherwise all of your tax calculations will be wrong
for the entire year.
Continue entering the Tax Table information for your City and State
and the information for Earned Income Credit. Please refer to the Tax
Guides for your respective City and State. Repeat steps 1-10 for each
of the Tax tables you will need for your particular City and State.
After you have entered all your Tax Table information for each table
that is necessary for your City and State and the Advanced Income
Credit information, make sure you have saved your inputs by answering
"Are Inputs Correct" before you return to the Payroll Utlilities main
menu.

8b - HELPFUL HINTS AND SUGGESTIONS
* Keep a CURRENT backup copy of all your data files. Each time you
have finished entering new data make a copy of your data files and
have at least four set's which you rotate. This will safeguard
against loss of data due to a power failure or other problems.
* Use the Shift PrtSc keys to make a hard copy of current screen
display.
* You may run this module WITHOUT the interface to the General
Ledger module simply by not posting to the General Ledger (F2 on
the Utilities Menu). The system will, however, post to your
General Ledger when you do an End of Period Posting (F3 on the
Utilities Menu). To totally avoid any interface, simply set up
this module with a separate data file, using a different name than
your General Ledger data file name. You will, however, have to
set up a few dummy G/L accounts (the required G/L accounts need to
run this module).
* When printing checks, be sure that your printer can print 85
column across. Deviation from this will result in the inability
to line up your pre-printed checks.
* The following explains how FINANCE MANAGER figures taxes:
1. FINANCE MANAGER figures the yearly gross income by multiplying
amount paid per pay period by either:
12 for those employees paid monthly
24 for those employees paid semi-monthly
26 for those employees paid biweekly
52 for those employees paid weekly
2. Subtracts deductions.
Page 49
FINANCE MANAGER II - Payroll
Deductions = Annual tax deduction amount (on the tax table)
times the number in the State deduction field (in the employee
account data base)
If the employee has more than one deduction and the annual tax
deduction amount (on the tax table) multiplied by the number in
the state deduction field (in the employee account data base)
is not correct according to the state tax guide, then you can
add any additional amounts in the state exemption field (in the
employee account data base). For example, the annual tax
deduction amount for a single deduction is $2,500 and the
annual tax deduction amount for two deductions is $3,000. If
the employee has two deductions you will enter $2,500 in the
annual tax deduction amount field (on the tax table) and a "1"
in the state deduction field (in the employee account data
base). 1 times $2,500 = $2,500. Enter the remaining $500 in
the state annual exemption field (in the employee account data
base).
3. Subtracts amount in State annual exemption field (in the
employee account data base)
4. Subtracts Federal Income Tax already paid if you answered "Y"
on the tax table and your state allows it to be deducted.
5. All of the above equals the annualized Taxable Income.
6. From the Taxable Income FINANCE MANAGER will calculate the
taxes that the employee will pay.
7. Finally, if your state gives you a tax credit enter the total
dollar amount in the State Annual Tax Credit field in the
employee account data base.
8. The annualized Payroll deduction is then divided by the number
of pay periods in one year to give you the deduction for this
pay period.
* If you have multiple state payroll you have two options:
A. Set up a set of books for each state and then use the G/L
merge transactions function to combine the G/L transactions
into one set of books.
B. Using the DOS copy command, create different tax tables for
each state and save each one as a seperate filename. Copy the
one you need to the filename of your set of books (e.g. COPY
COLORADO.TAX WORK.TAX to use Colorado tax tables).
