Payroll.pm
The Payroll module's new method will call Payroll::XML::Parser modules to change the XML input into the Perl data object (Payroll::XML::Data) that the countries can then work with. The process() method will then call the proper country module passing in the data object and the output object/hash. The resulting object is the XML module Payroll::XML::Output. Calling the generate() method will create the output XML document. Pass in a list of supported countries to the Parser.

{
#validate inputs
#run XML validation
#run XML parser
#use resulting Perl Object to process data
#for each person
#for each country
