EI and/or CPP don't match Gross Earnings

Summary

How to manually adjust an employee deductions in Sage 50 Accounting when EI or QPIP insurable earnings and/or CPP pensionable earnings aren't equal to gross earnings.

Cause

  • The employee has reached the maximum earnings for the category
  • Manual adjustments to the amounts and Gross Earnings cause fluctuations
  • Minor rounding errors occur when you enter a value manually

Resolution

  1. Go to Employees & Payroll, right-click the Employees icon and select Modify Employee.
  2. Select an employee from the list and click OK.
  3. Click the T4 and RL-1 Reporting tab.
  4. Modify the values in the current year to the correct values.
  5. Click Save and Close.

 NOTE: To avoid these problems, always use the Calculate Taxes Automatically. You need a Sage Business Care Payroll Plan to calculate taxes automatically.
