Darwin is an integrated financial solution designed specifically to handle the unique operational and accounting aspects of PEO's / Employee Leasing firms. No other product on the market can match its functionality, technology, and ease of use features.
By incorporating payroll, invoicing, accounts receivable, accounts payable, general ledger, and a custom report writer into a real-time online system, Employee Leasing executives can access financial information that reflects their current financial status at any given time.
Darwin eliminates the need to transfer information among multiple systems, or worse, manually re-enter payroll information into an invoicing and / or general ledger package.
Darwin provides:
Fully integrated modules including payroll, accounts receivable, invoicing, accounts payable, general ledger, and report writer. Your financial information is accurate, current, and easily accessible.
Designed to meet your clients' and your business needs, Darwin automatically creates each of your clients' invoices with your individual customizations.
Users can determine any method of billing - making each area of your business a profit center. Users can also alter the automatically generated invoices after a payroll for any additional charges that may need to be added or adjusted. An 'open invoice' allows the addition of one-time charges when they occur. This ensures those charges will not be forgotten. They will automatically appear on the next regular invoice (or can be billed though an extra invoice).
Darwin allows multiple tasks to be performed together. For example, a user can be processing a payroll, entering a new employee, inquiring the status of an invoice, and creating an accounts payable transaction, all at the same time and at the same workstation (PC).
Benchmark tests reveal increases of over 300% in payroll processing time for some payrolls as compared to other DOS-based systems.
Darwin's screen layout and Windows environment provide maximum productivity and ease-of-use. Checklists allow new and infrequent users to perform complex tasks step-by-step with an integrated To-Do list mechanism which keeps track of every single step.
Complete inter-application compatibility with other Windows-based products like word processors, spreadsheets, report writers, etc. Information is easily passed between programs. Darwin utilizes industry standards like DDE (dynamic data exchange) and OLE (object linking and embedding) technologies.
Darwin takes full advantage of Windows3.x, Windows95, and WindowsNT workstation environments as well as Netware 3.x/4.x and WindowsNT server environments. This provides flexible upgrade migration paths that allow Darwin to grow as your business grows.
Darwin is available as single user version, LAN version for multiple users, and as Client/Server version for high-end data volume and processing needs. The SQL version - supporting Microsoft's SQL server - allows an integration into corporate information systems and ensures compatibility with the Microsoft BackOffice product line.
Direct Deposit for employee payroll supports multiple checking and / or savings accounts per employee. The fund distribution can be done by percentage and / or fixed amounts. Darwin automatically creates the data files for your bank according to the specifications of the ACH (Automated Clearing House).
Over 175 Standard Reports are provided with Darwin. All reports in Darwin can be customized using the easy-to-use, drag-and-drop style report writer. Users can also develop new reports as needed.
Darwin files can also be accessed by 3rd party reporting tools such as Microsoft Access, Crystal Reports, etc.
The flexibility of Darwin allows you to be confident that you can meet the individual needs of your clients. You won't have to turn down business because the system cannot handle your clients' unique requests.
Darwin can print on any kind of pre-printed check forms as well as on blank paper (requires a laser printer and MICR compatible toner cartridge).
Extensive security can be used to restrict access to sensitive functions, reports, and client information. The security settings can be customized on a per-user basis.
Darwin incorporates functionality referred to as Agency Checks. Agency check processing provides the ability to automatically transfer payroll liability into accounts payables or to credit accounts receivables. This feature is being used for health insurance payments, tax payments, government agency payments, employee 401(k) contributions, etc.
Darwin provides a complete certified payroll module. This allows for jobs to be
entered, tasks to be created, and employees to be assigned. A special data entry program
allows for a smooth and efficient entry of certified payroll transactions. The Certified
Payroll report displays each person's daily work along with the rates, hours, and other
important information.
