Payroll Record Keeping Software Solutions

Payroll record keeping is an essential data management task for any employer, and it goes far beyond weekly paycheck calculations, quarterly filings, and end-of-year tax forms. As it is with other employer-based record keeping, payroll information must be archived and organized in a way that it can be readily available. Whether as an audit or as some other authorized request, you don’t want to spend countless hours searching for the relevant information and/or face penalties for failure to comply with record keeping requirements.

The need to archive different types of payroll information expires at different intervals (typically somewhere between two and seven years). As such, most accounting professionals simply recommend that all payroll record keeping is maintained for seven years. Nowadays, the easiest way to do this is with a software solution and data files that can be transmitted electronically or printed out at a moment’s notice.
