Q: Why should I re-evaluate my payroll/HRMS system?
A: Because your payroll/HRMS system is a key process, and likely a time and cost intensive one, it is prudent to reevaluate your options for improvement. Changing your payroll/HRMS system can provide dividends in the form of streamlined processes, decreased errors, enhanced functionality and increased employee satisfaction. Finally, you have one secure database so you can connect, collaborate, communicate and control the flow of HR and payroll information and make real-time decisions with real-time information.

Q: Doesn’t conversion require a large investment of time and money?
A: Undertaking a conversion with any payroll/HRMS will require some investment of time and money. Understanding not only the main functions of your software, but also what your system can do, can save you time and money in the long run. Studies have shown that once conversion is complete, using an HRMS system can reduce costs 10 – 20% each year for the life of the system and upgrades.

Q: I can’t risk anything going wrong. What are my safeguards?
A: HR Technology Solutions works with HRTS Online customers to ensure that conversion data is checked, rechecked, balanced and rebalanced. The payroll run may be done in parallel by HRTS up to four times, free of charge, until all departments and deductions balance. Having a local support system means that assistance is more accessible – when you need it. HRTS does the work for you!

Q: What questions are important to ask when looking at providers?
A: Bottom line, you want a system that is efficient, that can do what you need it to do, and that provides assistance should you hit a snag. A few questions that may help determine a system’s value include:

• Is this a true Web-based system that is accessible from any computer with proper authorization?
• Can one connect via multiple offices or managers to one real-time payroll/HRMS/ESS database?
• Do updates put in one section of the program, such as HRMS, automatically transfer to other areas of the program such as payroll?
• What type of assistance is available to me as I go through a conversion process?
• How many other companies are using this system and how are they using it?
• Can this software grow with my company or will I need to purchase additional modules?
• How does your HRMS handle the logging of applicant information, references, and interview data?
• Can employees with access self-enter enrollment data, change tax information, employee beneficiary and/or dependent information?
HRTS Online for HRMS/payroll/ESS easily handles all of the above areas enabling your staff to focus more on strategic HR issues, and less on administrative ones, thereby reducing cost.
