In 2019, Ganley Automotive Group deployed CDK Global DMS to support core accounting and payroll operations across its high volume dealership network. The CDK Global DMS implementation focused on Dealership Management functions and was scoped to strengthen payroll data flows, general ledger alignment, and payroll tax processing for all employee populations.
CDK Global DMS was configured to manage payroll processing workflows including new hires, terminations, salary adjustments, special payments, bonuses and commissions, check reversals and reissues. The implementation emphasized payroll batch management, payroll tax preparation and filing, payroll related general ledger reconciliation, and Affordable Care Act reporting capabilities as operational modules within the Dealership Management environment.
Integrations centered on timely exchange of payroll information into financial and accounting systems, and reliable electronic feeds that must be reconciled before payroll release. The deployment also acknowledged interoperability expectations with ADP payroll components and general ledger software packages commonly used in automotive accounting, supporting payroll data flows for executive, exempt, non exempt, union and non union employees.
Operational governance required management review of preliminary payroll batches for approval to release payroll, routine reconciliation of payroll and payroll tax related ledger accounts, and ongoing management of payroll tax issues through year end. The rollout design called for a dedicated Payroll Associate with hands on experience in payroll software and dealership accounting to operate the CDK Global DMS payroll workflows and to keep the CFO, Operations Controller and General Managers informed on key payroll issues and project progress.
