Announcement for immediate release-January 1996 A NEW INTERNET PAYROLL SERVICE DATAPAK, INC. announces their new and exciting payroll solution that runs payroll automatically in the users office and on the PC desktop by office personnel.

Automatic INTERNET tax payments and government reporting takes advantage of new computer technology. This eliminates the need for expensive accounting support and the inconvenience of the outside payroll service. Your company can download the PAYKWIK Advanced Payroll software from America On-Line, Compuserve and the PAYKWIK Home Page on the INTERNET for a free trial. In fact, you may download the fully functional PAYKWIK software and run it free until you decide it is the best solution for your companies payroll needs. If your company has 5 or less employees, you may use it free until your company expands. Other companies will pay a per check fee that starts with a low $25 per month minimum. The Payroll Service Charge check is printed automatically each pay period. Give the employees their checks, send the Federal Tax payment check to the bank and the service check to DATAPAK and your payroll and reporting is completed quickly and efficiently. PAYKWIK uses an entirely new and efficient way to process payroll. It was perfected over a 15 year period by DATAPAK, INC. of Vicksburg, Mississippi. DATAPAK is a small computer software development company with extensive computer experience with a wide variety of mainframe, mini and PC computers. They have not only improved the payroll procedure, but their solution considers the real world computer problems of hardware and computer speed and the need for on-line operator assistance. In the event of a power or hardware failure, PAYKWIK restarts automatically when the computer is returned to service. It remembers where it was and simply restarts at that point. Restoring of backup data from diskettes or tape is not required. DATAPAK'S proprietary FLASH technology speeds computer processing by a factor of 30 times so that payroll will compute faster on a PC computer than it will on most mainframe computers. When data is automatically loaded from a time clock or diskette, a one-hundred person payroll loads and computes in 3 minutes. An on-line EXPERT SYSTEM monitors the operator actions. POP-UP Windows with guidance steer the office person with little payroll knowledge through the payroll process. In fact, the PAYKWIK menu notes the last program run and it points to the next program in case their is a change in operators or a break in the process. PAYKWIK produces the conventional paper pay checks and reports, and it also prints laser checks and Electronic reports as well. Laser checks print on blank paper with a full disclosure of useful payroll information, vacation and sick leave and a message to the employee. Magnetic toner in the laser printer provides for the bank to read the bank account number on the check. A company logo and signature(s) may be scanned with a $99 hand scanner and automatically printed on the laser check. Electronic reporting is a growing government requirement. It has been predicted that by the year 2000, electronic reporting will be required for government reporting of all companies. PAYKWIK does this now! Employee checks are conventionally sent via Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) to the bank using Direct Deposit and distributed to the employee bank via the established Automated Clearing House (ACH) system. PAYKWIK does this and it supports Federal Tax payments with TAXLINK, and electronic W2 and State Wage reporting. PAYKWIKS State Wage reporting conforms to the new standard ICESA format that has been accepted by 18 States as of April 1995. Vice-President Gores' efforts to simplify government is effecting standardization among the States and PAYKWIK supports these new developments now. The confusing Child Support deductions and payments to the courts is automatically produced by PAYKWIK. The Federal government mandated that an option for electronic Child Support payments be made available by all States by October 1995. PAYKWIK automatically produces this report and payment on diskette for telephone modem transmittal to the State. PAYKWIK has been compressed to fit on a single 3 1/2 inch diskette to ease on-line downloading from a NETWORK. It takes minutes to download with a 14.4Kb modem. A more comprehensive version, PAYKWIK-PRO adds Multi-State Withholding in a pay period, Job Cost, certified government payroll, table pay rates, Novel Networking and remote data entry. PAYKWIK-PRO fully supports the 600 local tax jurisdictions found in Ohio and surrounding States. PAYKWIK-PRO comes on 4 diskettes with a comprehensive GETTING STARTED and USER Manual.
