Overall Satisfaction with APS OnLine

APS Online is being used for payroll for our corporate office and 16 restaurant locations. APS OnLine is used by the Payroll and Accounting Departments. APS OnLine stores employee information. This program also provides reports used in allocating payroll and expenses. There are files written in APS OnLine that we use to import payroll numbers.
  • Allows running different reports for separate time periods.
  • Gives the option of seeing multiple company codes in one place.
  • Gives options of information to be included or excluded in reports.
  • The download (pdf or txt) reports generated do not create a separate tab. Therefore, you have to start over in the system when running multiple reports.
  • Setting up GL coding is very cumbersome; especially when you have multiple locations.
  • Not all set up functions or reporting functions are user friendly or intuitive.
  • Using APS OnLine reporting has slowed down the import process of payroll into our accounting software.
  • Reports must be individually balanced with each payroll run to insure numbers balance and are allocated in correct general ledger coding.
We have used ADP. I have also worked with IBS Payroll solutions at another company. APS OnLine is less bureaucratic than ADP. APS is less user friendly or customer service oriented than IBS Payroll.
The program is not "open" to obtaining information unless you use their canned reports. There is also not a balancing function to insure reports are accurate. Nor is there a warning when information is missing in reports due to the lack of permissions. Much of the functionality of setting up different locations and subsequent reporting is counterintuitive.
