When your firm processes payroll through Accounting CS Payroll, you can enable Employee Self-Service for your clients. Through Employee Self-Service, your clients' employees can enter time; view check stubs, Forms W-2s, and Forms 1099-MISC/1099-NEC (for independent contractors); and update W-4 information through their own personal, private portals.
note
The 1st time that employees access the W-2 screen on their portals, they’ll be prompted to give their consent to get their W-2 forms electronically.
Employee Self-Service is a billable module (some exceptions may apply).
Access employee self-service through NetClient CS or NetStaff CS
If clients or staff register for Employee Self-Service with the same 1st name, family name, and email address as a NetClient CS or NetStaff CS portal, NetFirm CS will automatically link the Employee Self-Service portal with the NetClient CS or NetStaff CS portal.
When the portals are linked, the user can view Employee Self-Service screens from within NetClient CS or NetStaff CS.
If a client or staff member registers for Employee Self-Service with a 1st name, family name, or email address that doesn’t match his NetClient CS or NetStaff CS portal, NetFirm CS can't link the portals automatically.
However, you can manually link the portals.
To determine which portals are linked, do 1 of the following:
In the
Admin
tab of the navigation pane, select
Users
in the NetClient CS section or in the NetStaff CS section, then select the user in the Users pane.
Employee Self-Service Linked User
shows the Employee Self-Service user name and the client to the NetClient CS or NetStaff CS portal is linked to.
If you have access to both the client and Employee Self-Service administration, the entry in
Web Employee Linked User
is a link that will take you to the screen for the Employee Self-Service user.
View the Employee Self-Service Users report.
The Employee Self-Service Users report also lists all Employee Self-Service users, the email address for each Employee Self-Service user, and the date when Employee Self-Service was activated for each user.
