When Binary Stream’s Multi-Entity Management is installed, each employee is assigned to a facility, and each facility is assigned to a payroll checkbook. When payroll is processed, multiple checkbooks may be accessed.
Check numbers are assigned according to the checkbook associated with the employee’s facility. The MEM Connector for Payroll requires separate registration keys.
The MEM Connector for US Payroll provides the following custom sort order for payroll checks:
- Facility ID
- Division Code
- Class ID
- Last Name of Employee
- First Name of Employee
Setting Up Facility Signature IDs
In standard MICR payroll processing when security is by checkbook, a default Signature ID is assigned for all payroll checks. With the MEM Connector for Decentralized Payroll, a Signature ID needs to be defined for each payroll checkbook. This setup is used to determine which signatures print on the checks and when the signatures should be printed.
- Open the Mekorma Password and Signature Setup window.
- Enter information to define a Signature ID for each payroll checkbook. Please note, the Signature ID must match the payroll Checkbook ID.
Signature 1 and Signature 2 will print in the Facility Signature 1 and Facility Signature 2 fields on the check layout. Detailed instructions for defining Signature ID’s can be found in the Signatures & Passwords by Checkbook section.
