Open Door payroll program was a small assignment project in college. Overall, pretty easy. But, we put in extra work to make it look professional.
Overview of the payroll program
Below are the two main sections to this tool.
Sections of the payroll tool
Firstly, is the data input screen. Secondly, is the output screen.
Data input screen
So, the data input screen contains three sections: Employee input, check information, and tax rates. Beneath all that is, a command button section. In addition, these are sample inputs. Especially, the tax rates.
Employee information
Of course, you want to make sure you enter employee name, ID, and weekending date.
Check information
Likewise, you should to input check date, check number, regular and OT hours, and pay rates. If you are just testing, then some of these inputs you do not need.
Tax rates
When you enter the tax rates, they should be in decimal form. Not in percentages. Otherwise, it will not calculate properly.
Output screen
As a result from all your inputs, the output screen nicely formats your data and displays a stub. Provided that you are okay with the output, you can print the stub.
In like manner, you can clear the screen, return to the input screen, or exit the program. Keep in mind, if you click the Clear Screen button, it clears both, the output and input screens.
Developer’s note: By the way, both screens are on one form. How do you like that?
