The Operator's Manual is set up to explain the
Main Menu, but that also generally follows the sequence (left to right, top to bottom) that you should operate the software.
The suggested operating sequence is outlined on page 7 of the manual. Please review it now and
again after you've read the entire manual. Here is a brief 10-step summary:
1)
Start FAST-FLEX PLUS and select the sample Herculean Tire "sample" company (p.27 )
2) Add your own company
(p. 36 )
3) Select your company (p. 27 )
4) Set up your company's fiscal year dates, etc. (p. 29 )
5) Add your employees and their scheduled paycheck withholdings (p. 43 )
6) Add unscheduled transactions
such as reimbursement requests (p. 56 )
7) Add scheduled withholdings - on a scheduled pay day only! (p. 72 )
8) Print reports to verify data, etc. (p. 86 )
9) Print expense reimbursement checks (p. 98 )
10) Once you've accomplished the first-time cycle, above, you normally just enter reimbursement requests as they come in
(p. 56 ), then, on each actual pay day going forward, you will update paycheck withholdings (p. 72 ), then as the final step,
print reimbursement checks (p. 98 ).

you can start administering your own company's cafeteria plan immediately, even in the middle of a fiscal year, please go

This gets you jump-started! While there will be a learning curve with this or any
other new software, it's not a big one according to hundreds of our customers - most of whom wouldn't classify themselves
