The Old Way vs. The Counter Point Way

The Old Way

  • Enter basic payroll
  • Rebuild job information
  • Check classifications and rates
  • Open another spreadsheet
  • Reconcile hours and jobs
  • Build certified payroll information

The Counter Point Way

  • Enter detailed payroll once
  • Capture job information during entry
  • Capture classifications and rates
  • Keep data organized
  • Process payroll
  • Use the data for certified payroll and reporting

The best time to capture detailed payroll information is when you’re already entering payroll.

New Jersey Certified Payroll

Certified Payroll Without a Second Payroll Process.

Payroll is finished. Then certified payroll begins. Someone starts gathering job information, checking classifications, confirming hours and rates, and opening another spreadsheet. You’re essentially processing the same information twice.

Counter Point can configure your payroll-entry process to capture important employee, job, classification, rate and labor information while payroll is being entered. That information can help support the certified payroll reporting required for applicable New Jersey public works projects.

Construction Payroll FAQs

What makes construction payroll different?

Construction payroll can require detailed labor information across multiple jobs, rates, classifications, departments, trades and cost codes. Public projects can also add prevailing wage and certified payroll requirements.

Can you customize payroll entry around the way we work?

Yes. We start by learning how your company collects payroll information and how your payroll person prefers to work, then configure the payroll-entry experience around the information and workflow your business needs.

Can employees work multiple jobs or classifications in the same payroll period?

Yes. Employees can work across different jobs, projects or classifications during a payroll period, with the appropriate details associated with those hours based on the payroll configuration.

Can payroll help with job costing?

Yes. When job and labor information is captured during payroll entry, that information can help organize labor costs by job and other categories.

Can you create custom reports?

Yes. Tell us what information you’re trying to see. Depending on the payroll data available, we can work with you to create or customize reporting around your business requirements.

Can you help with certified payroll and prevailing wage?

Counter Point can configure payroll to capture detailed job, classification, hours and rate information that can support applicable certified payroll and prevailing wage reporting workflows.
