Onboarding

Whether you are a payroll firm serving clients or a business running your own payroll, the same guided walkthrough builds your structure and your team's access.

Illustration of the four-step AscenPay onboarding checklist
  1. 01

    Name your firm or your group

    Accountants create the firm and a group per client. Businesses create their own group and run it themselves.

  2. 02

    Add corporations and locations

    Each corporation carries its own EIN and pay schedule; each store or worksite carries its state and tax accounts.

  3. 03

    Set who sees what

    Give your people a role, the corporations they work on, and — if you want — the exact menu items they can open.

  4. 04

    Run payroll and file

    Import hours, verify and lock the run, publish pay statements, then produce federal and state filings.
