In this step, you define the threshold amount that the system will use to determine whether amendment processing is warranted for additional payments or retroactive decreases in employee earnings in the previous tax year. To this end, you define the value of a corresponding payroll constant: the Year End amendment threshold.

This step also allows you to define whether the contents of the custom sort field, determined in the Customer exit for additional sort criteria, are to be printed on employee copies of year-end forms T4, T4A, T4A-NR, Relevé 1 and Relevé 2.

Example

While preparing for Year End in December, the payroll department in your enterprise defines a Year End amendment threshold of $5.00. In early February, you complete the process of submitting employee T4 forms to CRA and employee RL-1 forms to MRQ. Afterward, a shift administrator notifies you of additional payments (for car taxable benefits and pension adjustments) that were not accounted for, as well as retroactive decreases in working hours during the previous tax year. These changes affect the earnings of certain employees in the previous tax year.

Since your payroll department has established an amendment threshold of five dollars, the system will no longer necessarily perform amendment processing for all affected employees. Only those changes in earnings whose absolute value equals or exceeds the threshold amount will trigger submission of amended forms to CRA and MRQ.

Standard settings

As delivered, the standard system features a default Year End threshold amount of 1.00, defined in payroll constant KYEAT. The standard system will automatically prepare to submit amended Year End forms when the absolute value of a retroactive change in earnings equals or exceeds one dollar.

The standard system also features a default value of 1.00 in payroll constant KYECF. With this value in place, the standard system will automatically print the contents of the custom sort field (determined in customer exit RPCYERKZ) on employee copies of year-end forms.

Activities

  1. Execute this IMG step.
  2. On the subsequent screen, select Position, enter constant KYEAT, then choose Continue.
    1. If a value has been established for the applicable tax year, then review that value and change it, if necessary.
    2. If a value has not been established for the applicable tax year, then select New entries. Under Constant, enter KYEAT. Under From, enter 01.01.nnnn, where nnnn corresponds to the applicable tax year. Under To, enter 31.12.9999. Under Value, enter the value that you desire to set for the Year End threshold amount.
  3. Select Position, enter constant KYECF, then choose Continue.
    1. If you would like the contents of the custom sort field to be printed on employee copies of year-end forms, then leave the default value of 1.00 unchanged and proceed to step 4.
    2. If you do not want the contents of the custom sort field to be printed, then specify a value of 0 for this constant.
  4. Save your entries, exit the transaction, and proceed with the next IMG step.

Upon completing this step, the system will only trigger automatic amendments processing for retroactive increases or decreases whose value equals or exceeds your chosen Year End threshold amount. Also, upon completing this step, the system will not print the contents of the custom sort field if you have changed the value of payroll constant KYECF accordingly.
