| Work area | Preparation support | Review and approval |
|---|---|---|
| Employee and pay inputs | Collect and organize approved information. | Your HR or payroll owner authorizes employee changes and source inputs. |
| Review and exceptions | Compare reports, document differences and route questions. | The designated reviewer resolves exceptions and approves the pay run. |
| Calculation and release | Support the agreed workflow and prepare supporting records. | Calculation ownership, payment-file preparation and release authority must be expressly assigned. |
| Records and submissions | Organize agreed payroll and accounting records. | Confirm responsibility for posting, statutory reporting and any corrections. |
A useful handover shows what is ready and what still needs a decision.

Track the query, supporting records and responsible owner through to an agreed resolution.
Start with the systems and records you already use.

Explore accounting software & toolsThese areas need a separate discussion of requirements, relevant experience and professional responsibilities before they are included.
Describe the current platform, employee records and reconciliation status. Confirm data preparation, migration checks, configuration ownership and opening balances as a separate project scope.
Retrospective pay, overpayments, underpayments and rejected payments need a defined decision and approval process. Confirm who calculates, approves and implements each correction.

Feedback from the original Acelerar client relationship.
We have depended on Acelerar to do a number of projects for us over the last few years. Everything they do for us is timely and exactly what we requested. I would highly recommend.
Share employee locations, pay frequency, payroll platform, recurring inputs and the tasks you want covered. Identify the people who approve changes and the final pay run.
Discuss the platform, edition and required access during scoping. Confirm relevant experience and the work to be performed before granting access.
Assign those responsibilities explicitly. Preparation and review support do not automatically transfer approval or payment-release authority.
Agree an exception process with a named owner, supporting records and approval points. Off-cycle calculations and corrections need their own confirmed responsibilities.
Discuss journal formats, account mapping and the reconciliation required. Confirm whether the scope covers preparing journal information, posting entries or both.
Yes. List employer entities and worker locations so local provider, reporting and approval responsibilities can be assessed separately.
