ADP pretty much invented payroll processing. Today there are many competitors but ADP still ranks at the top of the list. We're going to look at some of the services they offer and how they work.

First of all it needs to be pointed out that ADP is an outsourcing company. In other words, instead of having your payroll processed in house it is sent to ADP off site and they process it for you. So, just how does this work?

Actually, ADP offers two distinct solutions.

The first one is outsourcing your payroll. The company supplies ADP with all their employee records and from those records ADP processes your payroll. Either ADP sends the checks to you, or they make them available for you to get, through your own electronic check printing program, which they provide. However, if you should choose to have ADP do it all for you they will provide the payroll system, the network connections, data management center, and complete IT support. All you need to do is distribute the checks after they are delivered.

But ADP doesn't stop there. For companies that want to handle their own payroll but don't want to be responsible for all the technology that goes with it, ADP offers what they call ADP's Payforce. This is a strategic solution that offers a combination of outsourcing benefits and an internal Internet solution. This is a very low cost solution that many companies use.

Basically the way Payforce works is as follows. All the payroll records are kept in ADP's internal database systems. The company accesses these systems through a simple Internet connection.
