We always used the Diocesan Payroll System, which we found both simple and 
transparent. But before they implemented it, things were difficult to say the 
least, and doing the quarterly returns and all was my job as Treasurer. The 
Diocesan plan was a true Godsend, and a model for other services the diocese 
should provide -- group rates on utilities, office machines, stationary and the 
like.
