MAS 90/200 Core Modules

Sage MAS 90 / MAS 200 Payroll

Payroll

This solution was designed to deliver in-house payroll preparation - the alternative to a time-consuming manual payroll process or costly outsourced services.  Payroll applies earnings and deductions, calculates employee and employer payroll tax, and prints checks and statements with tax information and year-to-date earnings - the current federal and state tax tables included - allowing you to print W-2 forms upon request.  You can also enter other tax jurisdiction such as state and local earnings.  With Payroll for mas90 and mas200, you can maintain detailed employee information.

End-users claim that Payroll in other software accounting systems is difficult at best.  Payroll with MAS 90 and MAS 200 delivers in the areas that other systems fall short: automation and simplicity.
