Using the flowchart structure presented in Figure 2- 25 in the text, prepare a system flowchart of the process outlined in Problem 3. Assume the following: Hard-copy timesheets are submitted by employees to department management. Managers submit the time sheet data digitally from their department terminals to the automated payroll application located in the data center. The automated system posts the transactions to the digital payroll file. The system also prepares and distributes hardcopy checks and cost center reports to employees and management respectively. Managers review the reports and file them in their departments.
