6 What We Will Cover Today 6 The importance of record keeping in a payroll department Regulatory agencies with payroll record keeping requirements including: Department of Labor IRS Child Support Others Details of exactly what data needs to be saved and in what format can it be kept Does Sarbanes-Oxley still matter in 2015 for record keeping? Mergers, acquisitions and how it affects payroll record keeping Keeping the data secure to remain in compliance
7 The Importance of Recordkeeping 7 Used to calculate gross-to-net pay and deduct the correct withholdings Used to report information to the proper taxing authorities Used to prove or demonstrate that the employer has met all regulatory requirements for tax, wagehour and other laws on the federal, state and local levels To meet the company s business operating requirements
8 Key Points 8 There is supposedly no one size fits all when it comes to recordkeeping but actually you can keep everything you ever create forever and a day and that will work! But if you don t want to keep everything forever, then you must consider each agency s requirements when creating your overall plan
9 Key Points 9 Regulations usually tell you what individual data items to keep but not what records or reports So you have to determine if you keep your payroll register ; edit reports ; deductions register or whatever you call the different payroll reports produced What do you produce that contains the data you need to keep Payroll records can be found and stored in multiple systems including Payroll itself, HR, Timekeeping and the General Ledger
