Features Table

Feature How It Works
Minimal Day to Day Processing The payroll is structured in such a way that there is very little an operator has to do apart from general updates, data entry and payruns. This enables minimal time to be utilised in system supervision. Many items in the package are user definable eg Data entry types and Reports. This allows the system manager to choose the features to be utilised and takes the onus off the operator, especially at data entry time.
Review, Reminders and Notes A variety of salary reviews, reminders and general notes can be stored on each employee.  These can be accessed via the reminder check and automatically display during a payrun.
Salary, Timesheet & Casual Employees The payroll system pays wages and salary people on an exception basis.   Casual and timesheet employees are paid according to the timesheets entered. Timesheets can be entered in advance and they can have a range of dates to allow more accurate backpays.
Electronic Funds Transfer The EFT facility allows transmission of employee wages directly into their nominated bank accounts.  Deductions can use EFTs as well.
ATO Compliant and Fringe Benefits CASPER meets the Australian Taxation Office requirements for plain paper payment summaries plus electronic lodging of these documents.Full fringe benefit processing is available including on-cost calculations and reporting for taxation purposes.
Finance Interface A full set of journals are created within CASPER and these can be exported in ASCII format to various accounting systems. There are also direct links available to some systems e.g. Sybiz Vision.
User Written Reports There are a large number of reports available in CASPER, however users can also write their own reports using third party report writing tools and these can be added to the standard set of reports. Existing reports can be used as a base for new reports.
Allowances & Deductions Allowances can be unlimited per employee, pay by amount, percentage or rate and can be enabled for a date range. Deductions can be unlimited per employee, deducted by amount, percentage or rate. They can be designated as tax, super and ordinary types.
On-Costs and Salary Sacrifice An unlimited number of on-costs and salary sacrifice items can be attached to each employee. This can dissected across wage account codes. Employer superannuation is also available via this facility and can be linked to employee superannuation schemes. 
Timesheets entry options Timesheets are parameter driven for speed and accuracy and allows forward dated entries plus multiple user defined leave types. Entries can be reviewed and updated via a test run or before payrun update. Multiple awards/rates can be selected for each employee as well as multiple/split payslips.
Timesheet Import Timesheets can be imported from an ASCII file to speed up data entry and processing.
Timesheet Duplication Timesheets can be duplicated to create standard entries for all or some employees e.g. Public Holidays and RDOs.
Payrun options Payruns can be automatic for groups of employees as well as selective.   A set of Payrun reports can be defined for each site.   Payslips can be user defined as well.  There are multiple tax options from standard tax table to tax selection on specific employees or timesheets. Pre payrun exception reports can be run as well as exceptions once pays are calculated. The system allows for Weekly, Fortnightly, Monthly and Special payruns.
Reports and Job stream There are many standard reports available. These can be printed to the screen and/or printer as well as exported via various formats for external use.  A report job stream is also available to allow batches of reports to be run e.g. Post Payrun, End of Month etc.
Comprehensive Search and Lookups Using the filter menu option on the employee screen allows you to search for employees with specific details. You can enter details into a combination of fields to get a short list of employees e.g. Select employees with a specific paygroup whose surname includes certain letters and started after a date.
Auditing and Security There are audit trails maintained throughout the system and security is via user/password with multiple levels of access available.
