Understanding the Set Up for PEO / ASO Client Accounting in HRPyramid
There is a great challenge in setting up the PEO / ASO Client Accounting in HRPyramid.  This session will cover how to interpret, from your client’s chart of accounts, the necessary structure to enter the account numbers in the set up screens.  We will cover where in HRPyramid the system is getting the data to assign the G/L accounts numbers and how those affect the resulting report or download file.  We will also cover the use of “wildcards” in the PEO Client Accounting and “prefix/suffix” in the ASO Client Accounting and how you can use those tools to create the results needed for more complicated chart of account structures.  Finally we will cover the reports and downloads that can be created to send to your clients.

Those attending this session should have a basic understanding of the HRPyramid payroll process.  They should also be familiar with company setup; including the use of divisions, departments, locations, and projects.  This session will be at a basic to intermediate level. This session should be attended by users who have the responsibility for setting up the client or processing their payrolls, including Payroll Managers, Controllers, and CFO’s.

Rocket Launch: Advancing U2 Technology
Attendees in this session will be treated to a sneak preview of a prototype HRPyramid application developed with the new U2DataVu software from Rocket. Earlier this year, Rocket acquired Unidata/U2 database software (the foundation for HRPyramid) from IBM. Learn what’s new since the acquisition as Rocket representatives bring us up-to-date.

The New Benefits Reconciliation Module
This session will cover the process HRPyramid has created to reconcile benefit transactions.  We will cover the process of taking information from your insurance carriers and using it to reconcile the employee transactions with the insurance carrier invoice.  This will be done via the new Benefits Reconciliation Module created within the HRPyramid system. By attending this session you will come away with a better understanding of how HRPyramid processes benefit plans and deductions.  With that understanding you will be able to better know where to get the information to reconcile benefits to the carrier invoice.  You will be shown the tools created within HRPyramid to assist in this process, thus speeding up the time it takes to do the reconciliation and identify possible trouble areas. This session will be at an intermediate to advanced level. This session should be attended by users who have the responsibility to monitor the client’s benefits including, but not limited to Benefits Specialists, Benefits Managers, Accounting Managers, Controllers, and CFO’s.

Encryption
State regulations require that Personal Information including certain aspects of payroll data be encrypted. We will discuss what needs to be considered and the industry standard solutions for transmitting, storing and moving of that data.
