RE: Mapics 5.5 Payroll ver. ADP

Hello All

We use mapics (v5.5) PR for our Factory employees 300+- and have not had any
issues .. yet. 

We have Ceridian do our salaried payroll. We started with ADP for Salaried
payroll and dumped them after 6 months, 13 payrolls and not 1 was correct.


We looked at doing the factory payroll with an outside service and came to
the following conclusions

1. Timing is a major issue, data must be transmitted to outside service on
Tuesday for checks on Thursday.  
2. There was (at that time) no interface from PMC to PR to (outside service)
and we did (and still do not) have the resources to implement one.

Hi Group,

Our HR person believes that MAPICS payroll is no good and wants to replace
it with ADP. I know that MAPICS payroll might have some minor drawbacks but
do not believe we should shut it down and go with an outside payroll
processing company. It seems that no one has been trained on MAPICS payroll
and the information on how to process payroll has been handed down from the
last three employees over the past 18 months. We are also tracking time via
data collectors and updating payroll automatically via PCM and an in house
developed program. I have also suggested that we look into an HR package
from Optimum Solutions as an add on to give the HR person the tools she may
need.

Two questions:

1) Is anyone using a payroll processing company with MAPICS installed and if
so, which one?

2) What are your feelings about MAPICS payroll?
