Description

CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION Background of the study Payroll is the sum of all financial records wherein business or companies pay its employees for work performed during a specific period of time. A payroll system involves everything that has to do with the payment of employees and the filing of employment taxes on a computerized manner. A payroll system may be manual or computerized and handle in-house or outsourced to another provider. The payroll process typically includes calculating employee pay, recording payroll transactions and determining and paying payroll taxes. Without implementing this kind of system, the company would have difficulty in computing for payments for services or work done by employees. Payroll system isn’t just a requirement nowadays. It is now essential to companies. Computerization is a control system that manages process in industrial workplace. It reduces human errors and processing time, thus it can boost productivity and resulted into high quality product produce. In Information System (IS), computerization is concerned about interrelating different but interdependent transactions. This can result in a system with well-integrated processes that can perform much faster and more accurate than a manual system.

CHAPTER 2 REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE AND STUDIES This contains the discussion of the review of related literature and studies that has a bearing on the totality of this study.

Related Literature A. Foreign Literature Information system takes a very significant role in management life. It greatly affects and interferes in the management decision, planning, and the development of new products and or services. The increasing range of information system connects to a transformation of an organization from using the traditional or manual information system to a computer base (program and software) system. Mike Johnson (2011) defines information system as a set of interrelated elements that gather, retrieved, process, store, and disseminate information to reinforce decision making and control in an

organization.

This

definition

indicates that the information system is very important organizing data and information of the organization Sherman and Watson (2012) stated that information system as an organized combination of people, hardware, software, communication networks, and data resources that collects, transform and disseminate information in an organization.

The definition indicates that the main focus of the information system or automated system is broadly detailing on the idea, and organizing information pertaining to either individual groups, or organization. Philip Morris (2014) on this part, explains that information system is composed of inputs, processing units (process, store), and output (sources). In a broader sense, the information system consists of operations and management applications to support transactions, processing or decision making activities at different organization level. Automated payroll system is considered an information system for it stores data of the employee receiving its wages and salary, daily time record or attendance, and other benefits which an employee has to received. According to Great Martin (2015), management information system plays a very vital part in making an organization a success or failure. Great Martin (2015) stated that in designing a system, the following should be taken into consideration. It should provide a modular architecture, It should have a coordination of interface, the interface between different modules should be clearly labeled in the terms of content, frequency, and mode of operation. In automated payroll system, the manner of doing such is the same. The program or system should follow a process or a step by step procedure in order to arrive to a specific function within the system. The design of the must be in conformity with the existing tools of information technology.

In a company, payroll is the sum of all financial records of salaries for an employee, wages, bonuses and deductions. In accounting, payroll refers to the amount paid to employees for services they provided during a certain period of time. Payroll plays a major role in a company for several reasons. From an accounting perspective, payroll is crucial because payroll and payroll taxes considerably affect the net income of most companies and they are subject to laws and regulation (e.g. in the US payroll is subject to federal and state regulations). From an ethics in business viewpoint payroll is a critical department as employees are responsive to payroll errors and irregularities: good employee morale requires payroll to be paid timely and accurately. The primary mission of the payroll department is to ensure that all employees are paid accurately and timely with the correct withholdings and deductions, and to ensure the withholdings and deductions are remitted in a timely manner. This includes salary payments, tax withholdings, and deductions from a paycheck. Companies typically generate their payrolls at regular intervals, for the benefit of regular income to their employees. The regularity of the intervals varies from company to company, and sometimes between job grades within a given company. Common payroll frequencies include: daily, weekly, bi-weekly (once every two weeks), semi-monthly (twice per month), and to a somewhat lesser extent, monthly. Less common payroll frequencies include: 4-weekly (13 times per year), semi-annually (twice per year), semi-monthly, and annually.

An automated payroll system enables the employer to process its payroll through a computerized system. A manual payroll system requires that the payroll be processed by hand and is therefore a considerably slower procedure than an automated system. The former makes payroll processing simpler, and reduces errors, which are more likely with the manual system.

Related Studies A. Foreign Studies In the study conducted by George Carlton (2013), it aims to lift up an understanding on the issues and concerns with regards to the management of information and securing information. The study was conducted by assessing the analysis, design, and management of computer based information system in two large organizations like British National Health Service Hospital Trust, and a Borough Council. In this study, George Carlton adopts the research methodology of interpretative mode of inquiry, where the system was evaluated on the context of business environment. The finding in the study shows that computer based information system affects the integrity and totality of the organization. The automated payroll system uses payroll software to compute all wages. Payroll software, such as QuickBooks, Pensoft, Z-Pay, Ultipro and Sage Peachtree calculated gross-to-net earnings based on the data the payroll representative inputs. Thus, if a terminated employee is due severance pay but the payroll representative neglects to make the entry, the system will not pay it. Typically, the system is reliable so long as the entries are correct. The automated system performs all types of payment; hourly, overtime, double-time, salaries, commissions, bonuses, pay raises, retroactive pay, wage deductions, auto payments and tuition reimbursements. Notably, the automated system eliminates manual paycheck writing. The system automatically generates paychecks and stubs and enables direct deposit.

Salary and wage deduction are a necessary part of payroll processing. The employer must take mandatory withholding from employee paychecks, including federal income tax, Social Security tax, Medicare tax and usually state income tax. These taxes can be time-consuming and perplexing to compute manually. A number of rules are attached to withholding tax calculations. With an automated payroll system, the software has the rates hard-coded in the system. It calculates the withholding tax for each employee based on the withholding condition data input. This reduces the likelihood of payroll tax errors, which can result in fees from the IRS and the state taxation agency. According to the researcher of Nyanmaru Computerized Payroll System (2013) nowadays all establishments are becoming modernized, they use modern technologies to make their transaction fast, easy, and accurate in order to avoid waste of time and for the sake of safety and security. It also helps human to solve and understand complex problem and analysis such us the computational need of humans. Especially to business establishment or corporation processing enormous data and complex transaction. Payroll is an example of a complex transaction because it is a critical business operation dealing with numerous accounts and produce plenty and confidential files. Payroll is encompasses every employee of a company who receives a regular wages or other compensation due to each. Applying manual procedure on a Payroll transaction involving the vast beat answer in that problem would be computer because computers can simulate enormous data and can process complex transaction in a fast and efficient way.

B. Local Studies In the study conducted by Ron Richardson (2013), she pointed out that information system helps to produce record, administer and corresponds data for the operational and preparation activities of the organization. The likes of automated payroll system is planned, design and developed to convene positive specific actions and is built on the objectives that there are management identification of the need that will sufficiently addressed the problem in manual way of doing the system. John Devin (2015), on the other hand stated that the record management system which also being to the family of information system is an administrative system which seeks to control, distribution, filing, retrieval, storage, and disposal of records which created or received by an organization during the operation. Nowadays, many payroll system implemented in different companies here in the Philippines because payroll system is one of the most important in establishing a business firms on how you provide the right and appropriate benefits for the employees in the company. Business firms must operate within the boundaries of laws and government regulations, Laws have been developed not only to protect consumers but also to promote competition among business and industries. Over half a century on, it’s fair to say that payroll is now one of the most commonly automated business operations; and certainly the most frequently the most used HR Solution that maintaining payroll record is one of the most important financial tasks in any business. A great payroll is really one of the

most important issues to pay attention in almost every company. It is impossible to handle payroll responsibilities with a pen, ledger sheet and calculator, but nowadays it is more convenient for most companies to use computerized payroll software. The schools is also not exempted in using a payroll system namely the study of payroll system for the teachers and staff of Liceo De Calamba (2010) the researchers (Maligaya, Opeña, James Jordan) viewed that Liceo de Calamba aims to provide high quality of education for their students and to establish great relationship with their employees by providing them with the right and appropriate benefits they must enjoy as population of Liceo de Calamba increases, its system must perform competitively, Payroll system is needed in order to have an accurate and error free in their payroll process and services.

Researchers (Alvarez, Aldrine, Gecolea) of Krizalen enterprises (2014) uses a biometrics with online data analytics dashboard to give Krizalen enterprises an efficient payroll system that can automatically monitor the attendance and trip tickets of the employees, drivers and helpers with the biometrics technology and data analytics that would help them in the security and accuracy of the company payroll and information. Summing up the past situation of payroll inside Krizalen enterprises, there was need for a system that could help them with employee information management attendance, monitoring, payroll processes, and assistance for the manager decision making. With this idea, the proponents conducted a study for the development of software that can minimize data redundancy, inconsistency, and manipulation. Employees can view their current A Proposed Computerized Payroll System

pay and review their information from the database. And with updating of the reports that can be viewed through the internet, the manager can view the recent activities within the proposed system.

Synthesis Based on the research or related literature and studies which tackle much on the information system, automated payroll system happens to one in the family of information system that store, organize, and process data. In the same manner, it can be conducted that payroll system implemented for the purpose of automating the payroll system can give or provide benefits to the business organization in the same way that other establishments are benefited with the aid of computer based payroll system. Furthermore, it can also be great help to the payroll personnel since data will be stored confidentially and data will be generated on a printable format. The similarities of the existing and the proposed system are that they contain a data base of salaries computation together with its deduction and others. The difference is that the proposed system will contain the database of the employees and faculty, and also the process of computing a salary based on the generated report taken from the report generated by the attendance monitoring. There are many variations of making a computerized payroll management system on how the client or the owner of the company wants to operate within his business like the study in Krizalen enterprises that they used a Bio-metrics with online data analytics dashboard to view information or save the online studied since 2014 and also the research entitled “intuit payroll of intuit, INC. Since 2013” claims that with the use of payroll systems computations of pay checks or payslips are precise and always on time, taxes are clear and liquefied, and tracking of employee records are easy and organized. The revolutionary systems A Proposed Computerized Payroll System

regarding payroll helps to eliminate tasks made by man and therefore also eliminating the risk of human errors. As well as payroll outsourcing company, Oasis outsourcing (2013) believes that through web-based payroll systems, the Management can access information from in and out of the office. But with the limited access and multiple levels of security options can provide reliable and accurate updated records and computations. And also the study of payroll entitled “automated daily time record and payroll system of Laguna water district (2004)” recommended to use a hardware such as iris scan, thumb mark scanner and other Biometrics innovation for additional security and further technology advancement should be taken into consideration.

Chapter 3 Research Methodology

Research Design The research design to be applied in this study is the experimental and descriptive methods. Descriptive research describes and interprets what is. This methodology goes beyond more gathering and tabulation of data and it also involves the interpretation and analysis of the meaning or significance of what is described. The experimental research design is to be used to evaluate the proposed software using questionnaires. All the necessary data and information for this study were gathered from unpublished theses, books, and articles from the Internet.

Method Used in Developing the Software Product The software is to be developed to be used by the GEMPHIL Technologies specifically the person in-charge of the payroll of the employee. The software was intended to run on Windows XP. Visual basic 6.0 will be used in the developing of the GUI while MS Access will be used for its back-end database application.

Rapid Application Development (RAD) is a software development methodology that uses minimal planning in favor of rapid prototyping. The “planning” of software developed using RAD is interleaved with writing the software itself. The lack of extensive re-planning generally allows software to be written much faster, and makes it easier to change requirements.

Figure 3.0

Four phases of Rapid Application Development (RAD)

1.

Requirements Planning Phase - combines elements of the system

planning and systems analysis phases of the System Development Life Cycle (SDLC). User, managers, and IT staffs members discuss and agree on business needs, project scopes, constraints, and system requirements. It ends when the team agrees on the key issues and obtains management authorization to continue.

2. User Design Phase - during this phase, user interacts with system analysis develop models and prototypes that represent all system processes, inputs, and output. The RAD groups or subgroups typically use a combination of Joint Application Development (JAD) techniques and CASE tools to translate user’s needs into working models.

process that allows users to understand, modify, and eventually approve working model of the system that meets their needs.

3. Construction Phase - focuses on program and application development task similar to the SDLC. In RAD, however, users continue to participate and can still suggest changes or improvements as actual screens or reports are developed. Its tasks are programming and application development, coding, unitintegration and system testing.

A Proposed Computerized Payroll System

Page | 25

4. Cutover Phase - resembles the final tasks in the SDLC implementation phases, including data conversion, testing, changeover to the new system, and user training. Compared with traditional methods, the entire process is compressed. As a result, the new system is built, delivered, and placed in operation much sooner. Its task are data conversion, full-scale testing, system changeover, user training.

Method Used in Evaluating the Software Product Descriptive research design will be used to determine the level effectiveness of the payroll system as a tool in easy computing the payroll of the employee in terms of reliability, accuracy, and convenience. Albert Rogers stated that descriptive research design involves gathering data that describe the events and then organize, tabulates, depicts, and describe the data. Actual software demonstration and post interviews will be the most reliable way to identity the quality of the software. Two sets of questionnaires will be given to the respondents for the assessments of the study and the software. These questionnaires will determine whether the software meets the criteria and expectation of the users.

Respondents of the Study A Proposed Computerized Payroll System

Cost and Benefits Analysis Cost benefit analysis (CBA) it is important to identify cost and benefit factors. It’s a technique designed to determine the feasibility of a project or plan by quantifying its cost and benefits. Through this analysis you will be able to compute the total cost saving, payback period and net saving by use of this formulation. Annual Cost

=

Existing Cost – Proposed Cost

Payback Period

=

Annual Cost – Present Value

Net Saving

=

End Cumulative Present Value – Total Development Cost

Return of Investment (ROI) A performance measure used to evaluate the efficiency of an investment or to compare the efficiency of a number of different investments. To calculate ROI, the (return) of an investment is divided by the cost of the investment; the result is expressed as a percentage or a ratio.

The return on investment formula:
