Direct Deposit Payroll

I pay employees by direct deposit, instead of with a paycheck. How do I handle that?

In Goldenseal payroll software, it's not much different whether you pay by direct deposit, or by check. Here are the specifics for direct deposited payroll!

Writing Payroll

If you pay by direct deposit, follow these steps to write payroll:

1. Choose Write Payroll from the Bank menu.
2. Check labor hours and deductions, then click the Write Payroll button to create paychecks.
3. Enter Checking Debit into the Pay From popup field. Also enter a checking account, then click OK.
4. Goldenseal will create Checking Transactions for the payroll items.

Printing Pay Stubs

If you pay by direct, follow these steps to print pay stubs to include in each pay envelope:

1. Make sure you have regular white paper in your printer.
2. Open the Checking Transactions that you created in the previous steps.
3. Choose Print Forms from the File menu.
4. Enter one of the paycheck forms into the Form Type popup field.
5. Enter Unprinted Records in the Record Range field (or some other range if you want a different selection of checks).
6. Click the Print button.
7. You'll see a standard print dialog for your printer. Click Print.
8. Goldenseal will print a one-page payroll summary that you can give to your employees.

NOTE-- You can use the Custom Layouts command to customize the paycheck printed form.
