 Hi CPAs and future CPAs!

Hi,

Thanks for the reply.

Acturally I am practicing an software and look for duplicate records
for the employee file. So I think, if there are duplicate employee
records, what should be paied attention to if I am the auditor.

I think you are correct! So, the payroll checks are printed just
according to the employee records? I mean how many records there are
in the employee file, there would be how many payroll checks?

I have very little experience about accounting practice. Really
appreciate your help!

If "Irene" is set up twice in the personnel files, and showing twice as an
active employee, one should be looking for two paychecks.



One of the other things to be looking for is duplicate addresses......both
for employees and vendors.....you're looking for an employee who is
fraudulently billing the company, etc.
