First, a server system sends, to a client system, one or more employee demographics reporting criteria. Next, the server system receives, from the client system, an indication that one or more employee demographics reporting criteria are satisfied. Then, the server system automatically determines that a report coordinator is not yet designated. Finally, the server system sends, to the client system, an indication that a report coordinator must be designated before an employee demographics report can be generated.

The employee forms are also presented to the client in a sequence that is determined at least in part by legal criteria and the needs of the client to further ensure compliance with the rules of law.
