Abstract
A method and system for streamlined payroll set up and compliant paycheck generation whereby a computing system implemented payroll system is provided that maintains a payroll record for each employee. In one embodiment, data indicating the minimum information required by the law to generate a compliant paycheck is obtained. When a user begins the process of generating a paycheck for a given employee, the given employee's payroll record data is analyzed and compared with the data indicating the minimum information to determine if the given employee's payroll record data includes all of the minimum information. If the given employee's payroll record data includes the minimum information, then the given employee's payroll record is marked as having the compliant paycheck data and the requested paycheck is generated. If the given employee's payroll record data does not include the minimum information, then the user is asked to provide at least enough missing data to extrapolate the minimum information and when the missing data is obtained, the given employee's payroll record is marked as having the compliant paycheck data and the requested paycheck is generated.
