Payroll and Human Resources

Running payroll can feel like it takes all day, and managing the entire dealership’s benefits seems like it is on the back burner until someone needs something. It’s time to take away the stress of manually dealing with payroll and HR with software made specifically for automotive.

What if you could...

  • Store and manage employee information within a single system for easy referencing?
  • Reduce time spent verifying check numbers and increase security to reduce check fraud?
  • Track employee time sheets with increased accuracy by monitoring when employees enter and leave the dealership?

Here’s How

Human Resource Management

Every employee expects paid time off and other benefits to be tracked accurately, but it all falls to you. And when someone gets promoted or takes on a new role, you have to spend hours getting everything from pay rates to equipment like cell phones updated. Human Resource Management automates your HR processes and provides a secure location for private employee information to be stored and tracked throughout all aspects of the employee lifecycle, including training, promotions, salary changes, and disciplinary actions.

  • Manage all employee information from a single digital system for fast and easy referencing.
  • Track vacation, sick pay, and past employment history for every employee.
  • Keep note of any certifications or licenses employees earn.

MICR Check Printing

Paper checks are one of the easiest ways to commit fraud at a dealership. With no tracking system, an employee could walk out of the dealership with a stack of checks and you would never know. MICR Check Printing provides a secure and efficient way to print checks for multiple stores in one place.

  • Print checks from one bank account in multiple locations, or use one printer to print from multiple bank accounts.
  • Save time checking the printer to verify the current check number or changing paper stock.
  • Automatically update ERA-IGNITE with the check number so your system and the physical check match.

MICR Check Printing Testimonial - Hendrick Automotive Group

Denise Marenna is the Vice President of Consolidated Accounting at Hendrick Automotive Group

My name is Denise Marenna. I'm with Hendrick Automotive Group. I'm the Vice President of Consolidated Dealership Accounting. We have 100 plus dealerships, six regions, and we have a lot of responsibility to actually manage the business day to day.

One of the biggest concerns is having check stock laying around, whether it be inside the office or in a secured location. We've had personal experiences of boxes going missing. We actually did have a box shipped to us that was half empty. It had rocks in it, to make us think that the box was still full. When we picked it up it felt like it. When we would move it around, it felt like it was the same kind of box. But there was only a half a box of checks! And that can go unnoticed for a long time because as they're delivered, you move them into the storeroom until you're ready for them. That's always a risk.

But we don't have that risk anymore. In today's world we're the only ones that can write a check. With MICR capacity, what we can do is write a check here and handle our payables. I can have my check numbers still be in the right order and they can have a check written at the dealership. But we control that. All of the technology that Reynolds is bringing to us really helps us be able to run the business a little bit more efficiently and actually have a little bit more fun.

Positive Pay

Once a check clears your account, it becomes very difficult to ever get that money back if it is fraudulent.  Positive Pay allows you to automatically let your bank know what checks you have issued. If a check amount or number does not match the information provided in the Positive Pay file, the bank will not cash or clear the check and you are alerted of the suspicious activity.

  • Send check information electronically to any bank automatically throughout the day.
  • Automatically store check information for future reference.
  • Easily match your file format to your banks’ standards to streamline the process and help reduce errors.
  • Choose whether you want to send your bank all checks or customize which checks they need to verify

Timekeeping and Attendance

How many times each week does someone forget to log into your payroll system to clock in or out?  You end up making adjustments every time.  And accurately processing handwritten timestamps from technicians takes forever. With Timekeeping and Attendance, employees can quickly clock in from any PC or mobile device using their ERA-IGNITE credentials. Digital clock in/out creates less potential for incorrect time sheets to help save time and money.

  • Allow employees to clock in and clock out digitally so time worked is accurate and corrections aren’t needed.
  • Ensure employees are only clocking in once they are on dealership premises with geofencing capabilities.
  • Create work schedules, approve time cards, and control overtime expenses for each department and employee.
