Louisville, KY -- (SBWIRE) --05/10/2011 -- Halfpricesoft.com released a new version which added flexibility to its popular payroll software ezPaycheck so it meets the needs of more customers and helps those small businesses streamline their payroll. The update is available online at http://www.halfpricesoft.com/index.asp.

The update is the software developer's response to customers' requests for increased reporting options. ezPaycheck users can now run reports categorized by employee, pay period starting date, or pay period end date, depending on their needs. Users can also choose the length of reporting period included in each report: weekly, biweekly, semi-monthly, monthly, quarterly, or yearly.

"This latest update provides more flexibility for a wider range of customers," said Halfpricesoft.com founder Dr. Ge. "Our customers like ezPaycheck's capabilities and affordability, but a few said they needed more options for reporting - so we gave it to them."
