Why, avoid them, of course! In this webinar, you’ll learn tips that can help make payroll processing easier and methods to verify all your payroll variables before you commit a final payroll to your IT team or your outside processor!

Running a payroll preview, verifying your totals, and creating a comparison — these are all strategies to be used to ensure that your payroll management process is as accurate as you can make it.
