Updating outdated payroll reports
The "individual reports" that can be printed with each payroll run under the Pre-Verify and Post-verify steps should be editable. Specifically, it's no longer considered best practice to print full social security numbers on paper documents, or save / email them unless they are kept secure. Printing, saving and/or accessing so many reports with personal information with every single payroll concerns me. For the safety of our staff, we having been transitioning all reporting to the employee ID number. Without a unique identifier that can be used across all reports, data extracts and manipulation for external reporting and/or budget and account reconciliations is extremely cumbersome and time-consuming. Whereas, if the payroll reports included employee ID that can be used as the reference key, a simple excel v-lookup turns a report into a dynamic database without compromising personal security. Why can we not edit these reports?

Starting with the 05.20.06.00.07 addendum available on 9/3/2020, Name key was added as an option to the payroll report so users would have a different unique identifier other than SSN.
Thank you!
