Timely Tip:  Process
 refunds with ease!
 
One of the objectives of ALERE is to address certain day-to-day processes in new and innovative ways.
 
One area that we identified was to process refunds with ease by converting credit memos into payables. Two approaches can be used as follows:
1) When a credit memo is created and the Accept button on the Status tab is selected, you may choose between releasing the order as a standard credit memo or converting the credit memo to a payable.
 
2) An existing credit memo may be converted to a payable at any time by selecting the Release button on the Status Tab.
 
Furthermore, a payable can be created WITHOUT the company being a supplier.These two approaches provides  considerable control over the refund and payables process.

Happy New Year!
 
We at Innovative Tekniques,  hope  that you had a wonderful Holiday Season and are looking forward to a prosperous new year!   
 
In preparation for the new year, we need to ask ourselves, "Are we efficient in processing our information?" One area that always produces a discussion is Processing Payroll. Is it done in-house or by an outside firm?  If your answer is in-house, what is your definition of a reasonable and flexible Payroll package? 
 
If your solution is outsourcing your payroll, how is the information updated into your general ledger?  Click below to learn about additional modifications which have been created to streamline processes which in turn, saves YOU time and money.  For example: Posting the payroll from an outside payroll source manually? Our G/L Import will save you time!!  
 
So enjoy and always feel free to share with your friends and colleagues!
How are you processing your payroll?

Payroll is just one of the many details a business has to think about.

There are several ways to process payroll, but the most important thing is to find a system that strikes a balance between reasonable cost and ease of use. CenterPoint Payroll Software is an in-house payroll software solution that can handle the payroll needs of a business, whether one or fifty companies are being managed. 

Some of the many features of CenterPoint Payroll
 
Direct deposit through your choice of bank
CenterPoint Payroll's direct deposit allows you to pay some or all employees via direct deposit, to an unlimited number of accounts. You can also file with your own bank, as compared with other systems requiring you to use their costly direct deposit service, potentially saving your company thousands of dollars per year.
 
Tax filing made easy-even multi-state
All State and Federal tax reports are included in CenterPoint Payroll, so there is no need to check and see which states are included. You can also set up your local taxes in the system.
 
Extremely flexible time entry and processing methods
Paying employees has never been so easy! Choose to enter pay from timesheets, pull hours directly from your time clock, or set up and use payroll defaults, making pay entry automatic for each pay run. You can enter pay for salaried and hourly employees separately, or even copy pay from previous pay runs
 
Importing Information into the General Ledger of ALERE

Whether payroll is being processed by payroll software or an outside firm, the information can be easily updated into the General Ledger of ALERE Business Applications.

Innovative Tekniques released an Import to ALERE. 

The Import screen allows the user to modify the posting date, the general ledger account, the description and the reference number. It does not allow the user to change the dollar amount, nor will it allow the posting of unbalanced entries. The entire import process can be as simple as clicking the "ALL" button followed by the "IMPORT" button on the Import screen, then exiting.
