Emerald Software Group of Alpharetta, Georgia announces today a major new release of its Universal Onboarding product.

Emerald Software Group, a leading publisher of business process driven workforce management solutions, announces today the release of version 2.0 of its Universal Onboarding product. The new version incorporates more business rules and logic for state tax requirements, provides more options for integrating with companion HR systems such as recruiting and HRMS, introduces new features for generating offer letter templates, and offers more features in federal employment verification among many new capabilities. Emerald Software�s Universal Onboarding, or UOB, is designed to meet all the universally common transactional onboarding requirements for employers in the United States; Emerald also offers employee onboarding capability for other countries and in any language supported by browsers.

"UOB 2.0 is a significant expansion of our base in paperless hiring," said Emerald Software Vice President, Jay Torrence. "We have expanded support for integrations and greatly expanded support for ever-changing rules in withholding tax forms. If I only had this technology when I was an HRIS director, we would never have had to worry about employee forms accuracy."
