While the Audio/Video training is very comprehensive, it does not go into detail about state specifics, due to the fact that there are 28 states with their own required reporting mandates; some states having multiple agencies which create the prevailing wage laws.

State specific self -paced training is available in pdf format in our Self-paced State Specific Demo's section

It would be impossible for us to obtain and create, the fringe benefit reports for each Union in all 50 states, and because we are not members of their Union Hall - they simply would not give us a copy of their forms.

Knowing this, we have provided you with an extremely flexible benefit reporting module, where you create the form layout and design in an Excel spreadsheet and map, both CPS and QuickBooks data, to where it needs to be.

Use this self-paced Flash training video, even though it is rather old, combined with the 18 pages of detailed instructions found in your manual, to create a custom Union/Bona-fide plan benefit report that meets your specific needs.

Oh, and please don't tell us this can't be done.....we have a lady who runs 15 different Union Fringe Benefit Reports every month - all created with this feature! 

What is a "Certified Payroll Report"?  Who makes the laws governing certified payroll reporting?  How do you comply with Labor Standards & Payroll Reporting Requirements?  What information has to be reported on the Certified Payroll Reports?  How do QuickBooks users comply with reporting mandates?  Why is automating this task beneficial for you or your clients?

Answers to these questions and more, are available, upon request, in our FREE Certified Payroll Training Guide.

This training guide is available by request only.
