MBA Software offers Series 3, a suite of accounting, distribution, payroll,
compliance and human resources management tools that provides a comprehensive
solution to small and mid-sized businesses looking to regain more direct control
over their payroll processing functions. The system includes extensive reporting
options, as well as benefit plan management for 401(k)s, cafeteria plans and
paid time off. Other modules in the Series 3 Suite include GL, AP, AR, SOE,
INV, PO, HR and check reconciliation.
The Series 3 system uses an intuitive interface with navigation menus and tabbed
work screens that streamline data entry, while also giving quick access to key
features, including managing employee and company information. Time and transaction
screens include rapid data entry features and automated computation of withholding.

The payroll module is designed to manage a single employer entity, with support
for multiple payrolls of any frequency, and any number of employees, employee
groups, departments, jobs/projects, earnings types, and standard and custom
pre- and post-tax deductions. Direct deposit is included, with the ability to
distribute pay to multiple accounts, while checks can be printed in-house using
the system’s MICR interface.

Series 3’s payroll module includes built-in automation of time off accruals
and tools for managing unemployment, workers’ comp and third-party payments.
It includes tax tables for federal and all states, and offers compliance functions
like the ability to assign and distribute pay to multiple states for employees.

The system generates federal 940 and 941, plus state quarterly and annual
reporting, W-2 and 1099. Managerial reporting includes departmental percentages
and summaries, check registers, employee lists, labels and checkwriting. The
system integrates with the GL and other accounting systems offered by MBA Software,
and can import employee data from time clock systems and export to common file
formats for import into other programs.
