#3. What do CPAs and Worker’s Comp Auditors say about your reports?

Be sure to ask for specific testimonials from CPAs and Auditors and find out what they think of the reports the payroll service company generates. Some companies give you reams of reports that are difficult to read through and use for audits and financial entries. Be sure the reports are easy to read and understand, and can be used for fast audits. The less time you spend wading through reports the more time you have for money-generating business activities.

How does Payroll Masters™ compare to others on this question?

CPAs and Worker’s Compensation Auditors have a lot to say about Payroll Masters™ reports.

Do You Want To Struggle Through Confusing Payroll Reports,
Or Would You Rather Have Reports That Are Easy To Understand?

Part of our education process when you sign on with Payroll Masters™ includes how to read and understand our reports. Auditors (CPA and Worker’s Compensation) find our reports to be some of the best in the industry. They’re straightforward, easy-to-understand and concise. Here’s what some of them are saying about our reports:

Davide Cervone – R L Sire & Company CPAs – a CPA firm in Napa, California.
We changed our position to recommend only Payroll Masters™ to our clients instead of one of the big, national payroll companies because we were not happy with the level of service our clients were getting from them, and because the reports were not as clear as Payroll Masters™ for many purposes.

Since our clients started using Payroll Masters™ we have been able to get the one-on-one direct support we need in a timely manner in providing CPA services for them. We usually get support from the same payroll processor assigned to our client when we call. This level of support from Payroll Masters™ is critical to our ability to support our clients efficiently. For example, when a Worker’s Compensation audit is required we are able to get the information immediately and are able to get questions answered quickly when they arise. The reports are clear and concise – so much easier for us to present to State Auditors without a lot of massaging.

In the seven years we have been recommending Payroll Masters™ to our Clients, there has never been a complaint about their service.

We have so many reports available that we don’t list them all, but when you get serious about selecting a payroll service we will give you a FREE sample of our reports along with an explanation of how they work to make your job easier.

These are just a few of our reports:

  • Check Register
  • Income Register
  • Deduction register
  • Employee Check Stub report
  • General Ledger Report
  • Worker’s comp audit report
  • 401(k) and Retirement Plan reports
  • Sick & vacation reporting and management
  • EDD Multiple Worksite Report
  • Federal and State Tax reconciliation

If you have used a payroll service you know that the some of the reports in the list above can be frustrating to use. When you engage with us we work with you to make sure the reports are calculating the correct percentages for your company and make them easy for your accounting and HR departments to use.

The key to understanding payroll reports is more than just letting a system generate a report. Some areas of payroll require significant expertise and a thorough understanding of the principles behind them. For example, there are an almost unlimited number of ways to calculate paid time off. Every company’s policies are unique. You may be paying your employees on a bi-weekly payroll but accruing vacation benefits on a monthly or annual basis. There are 26 by-weekly payroll periods in a year which creates a challenge to report the benefits in an accrual accounting system that reports monthly.

Finally, if you need a special report and find that one of our standard reports won’t work we can create a custom report for your specific need.
