Ever-changing taxes and other deductions make payroll preparation a headache for many employers. But two new Web-based payroll preparation services--Intuit's Online Payroll and PayCycle's PayCycle Payroll Plus--offer relief. All you need is a Web browser and a broadband Internet connection.
Both services allow you to print paper paychecks and pay stubs and to deposit net pay electronically into employees' bank accounts. They also maintain current tax tables, calculate gross pay and deductions, and help you prepare payroll tax forms at filing time.
