Payroll Software- Stimulus Package
Stimulus Package Changes Federal Income Tax Withholdings
President Obama has signed the stimulus package, The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, into law. What does this mean for employers? The stimulus package does include the new, Making Work Pay Tax Credit, a change to the federal tax withholdings for employees. Employers are being asked to implement the changes as soon as possible no later than April 1, 2009. These changes will increase the paychecks of the American workers.
Employers can let their employees know that they, the employee, do not have to do anything to receive this benefit. They do not have to fill out a new W-4. The tax credit for those who qualify will be automatic.
For the employers who use a payroll software to calculate the federal tax withholdings you should be receiving the newly updated tax tables from your software provider. I would urge small business owners who are still doing payroll by hand to start using a payroll software solution. Payroll software can offer serious benefits, from increased payroll preparation efficiency to tangible cost savings.
Small business owners can obtain inexpensive, straightforward payroll software fairly easily. The software should include automatic calculations and customizable income, deductions and tax categories. Basic federal forms and business reports are included in some low cost payroll software.Â
With the stimulus package in the forefront of our thoughts another detail to think about is the cost of updates. Payroll solutions, that include tax updates at no cost, can be found.
A Payroll Software you may want to take a look at is Payroll Mate. Payroll Mate is a user friendly comprehensive payroll solution. This particular software has been updated to include the new federal withholding tables released by the IRS.
A free demo of the software is available here: Payroll Software Download

Growing Your Small Business
Because of the simplicity of most small businesses, it is quite easy for most owners to become short-sighted and try to do things all by themselves. On one hand, this allows them to cut on their overhead costs; on the other, this also hinders their business from growing since one person can only do so much. This is the reason why most small businesses take time before they can actually realize their full potential.
Fortunately, technology has come up with the solution for this problem in the form of software solutions. These suites of applications allow the business owners to cut on overhead and limit the number of people that he or she needs to hire without risking the possibility of completely losing control over the company’s paper works.
Depending on the specific area that you need help in, various software solutions vendors can provide ERP systems, CRM, accounting solutions, and contact managers. Of these, however, it is the accounting solution that is usually most sought after.
Any accounting software small business can take advantage of can be found online. Some sites even offer up to 60 days of free use of their full applications so that the business owners can see whether it is something that provides all their reportorial needs. Some of the major applications vendors also feature web-based applications that do away with the need for a number of space-consuming infrastructures.
These accounting software applications usually provide basic accounting functions such as GL, A/R, A/P and purchasing. Add-on modules can include payroll and inventory management. There are those that feature seamless integration with PayPal and eBay, while some provide support for multiple currencies allowing your business to do transactions internationally. There are even accounting software small business solutions that can generate sales quotes, purchase orders, billing invoices and statements of account with just one click of a button.
Most of these solutions come with a free accounting software training which could be in the form of a self-guided study, an on-site training where the facilitators would conduct the session inside your office premises, an online training which you can take on a specific schedule by simply logging in online and having your microphone and headset ready, and partner trainings where partner facilitators within your locality will provide the training for your employees.

Improve Small Business Operations with Manufacturing Software
There comes a time when many small businesses find the need to find a software solution to help with the daily functioning of their business. This is the type of business that starts out as a one or two person show, and with hard work and a little luck, begins to grow.
As it grows, the workload gradually, or sometimes not so gradually becomes too much for the proprietors. This leaves them to make a critical business decision; either hire more people to alleviate the load, or look for manufacturing software that allows the same people to handle the increased workload.
On one hand, it is the easy road to pick and area or function, and then throw human resources at it. It could be purchasing, or scheduling, or process engineering or quality.
It could be human resources and timesheets, payroll or accounting.  As with any endeavor in life, the easy and fast road may not be the best. Hiring a purchasing manager may suddenly and magically reduce the workload, but it also introduces as significant expense. This sudden increase in overhead goes right to the bottom line since the purchasing function in itself does not add intrinsic value to the finished goods. The new job is also a recurring expense and every month or year that the person is in the job, it costs more, costs that eat profits.
Enter manufacturing software. Low cost software solutions have come a long way. There is now manufacturing software available across the entire cost spectrum, and across the entire complexity spectrum. The best part is that the lower price does not necessarily denote lower functionality. There is low cost ERP software available that can interface with equally inexpensive software or modules that allow barcode scanning.  Using such a module make the ERP software easier to deploy for a small operation as it allows system updates without the need for data processing.  Just scan and go, that’s all there is.
Low priced MRP/ERP Software has also become more user friendly in that it does not require an IT professional to setup and deploy. In the past setting up manufacturing software required a lot of upfront work. There were definitions to create, tables to create, tables to fill in, and programming to tie it all together.  If after the initial run in,weaknesses were discovered, more IT time to fix these. Low cost software solutions tended to be cheap to buy and very expensive to setup, run and maintain.
Many modern low-end Manufacturing Software programs include menus and “wizards” to walk the small business owner through the steps of setting the system up themselves.
If they choose not to personally do this task, it may still be possible to use other internal labor, in engineering or quality who do not need to be programmers, they just need to understand the task and go through intuitive menus and wizards. One word of caution is that the software chosen should be able to handle increases in the business, without upgrading. Some good homework is in order here, but that’s a topic for another day.
