Payroll is an important function, regardless of whether you're a small accounting firm or a large business that handles millions of pounds worth of business.

Correct payroll processing is crucial when it comes time to draw up an income statement. It also keeps employees happy when they get paid on time. Many clients ask accounting firms to handle their payroll.

It may seem straightforward at first glance. It is not difficult to calculate the hours of your clients' employees and prepare their wages. Payroll is not all about hours and pay.
