Resaurant Payroll
Restaurant payrolls
are unique... that's why we have developed tools
and functions to help manage this process. With
tips, multiple rates of pay and POS interfacing,
we've got you covered. That's why the Louisiana
Restaurant Association (LRA) chose APS as the
recommended service provider for their members.
Features for restaurant
payrolls include:
Tip
to Minimum Calculations
APS OnLine will automatically gross up a tipped
employee's wages in the event that the employee
does not earn enough tips to make minimum wage.
Also known as Tip to Min. With APS OnLine you
know which employees will be grossed up prior
to submitting the payroll information. That
way if adjustments need to be made, you can
make them before the payroll is processed, rather
than trying to fix problems after the payroll
arrives. For more
complex payrolls, each income item can be flagged
to be included in the Tip to Min calculation.
Tip
Credit Overtime Calculations
One of the most difficult calculations for a
restaurant payroll involves the tip credit and
overtime pay for tipped employees. With APS OnLine
there is no need to create another wage type
or setup an additional rate of pay for the employee.
APS OnLine knows which employees are tipped
and what the overtime rate should be. And, just
like the Tip to Min income item, you can see
the overtime pay for each employee before the
payroll is submitted.
Unpaid
Deductions Report & Automatic Make Up
In many cases for tipped employees, the employee's
net pay is not enough to cover the full tax
withholdings and additional deductions. Our
Unpaid Deductions report will detail this information
and is prepared with each payroll. In addition,
the same information can be reported on in APS OnLine
for any time period or any employee; therefore,
allowing you to make the necessary adjustments
to recover deduction amounts unpaid by the employee.
This may sound good, but we've taken deductions
even further. With each deduction we can set
the option of allowing a partial deduction,
or to make up the deduction automatically on
the next payroll.
What does this mean to you?
Well, you never have to track payroll adjustments
for deductions from payroll to payroll, and
your exposure to overpaying employees is significantly
reduced.
Point-of-Sale
(POS) interfacing
With interfaces in place for many of the more
popular POS systems, you won't have to re-key
your employee time clock data; therefore, maintaining
the integrity of your data, and reducing payroll
errors.After importing your data, any necessary
adjustments can be made to employee hours or
tips before submitting the payroll.In
addition, the Batch Report will detail the income
items and deduction items of each employee.
Multiple
rates of pay
In most restaurants, employees will perform
multiple jobs, such as hostess, wait staff,
kitchen, or shift manager. With APS OnLine,
employees can easily be assigned multiple rates
of pay for each job or department. All of which
are detailed on the employee's pay stub, reducing
the number of employee payroll questions.
Workers
Compensation Reporting
By departmentalizing
your payroll, each worker's comp classification
can be tracked and paid using the proper code
and rate. A worker's comp report can be generated
at any time for a given time period using the
APS OnLine reporting Tools.
Form
8846 Reporting - Credit for Employer Social
Security and Medicare Taxes
Paid on Certain Employee Tips
As most restaurateurs know,
the restaurant owner(s) are allowed to take
a credit on their personal income tax return
equal to the amount of social security and Medicare
taxes paid on employee tips that are above the
federal minimum wage. Calculating the credit
can be a difficult task and many owners simply
do not have the time to make the proper calculations
and end up forfieting the credit. With APS,
we can calculate the credit and generate the
8846 report in seconds. This is an annual report
that will list all employees, the total tip
income, tips not subject to the credit and the
tips subject to the credit.
