In this step, you assign the wage types that your enterprise will use to process reportable wages during EEA reporting. During configuration, you will distinguish between wage types that represent one time payments and wage types that represent proratable wages (which correspond to recurring payments). This distinction ensures that reportable wages are calculated properly when extrapolated from partial year data.
Standard settings
The standard system includes technical wage types for regular taxable income (/102) and non-periodic taxable payments (/103). All payments to be recorded during EEA reporting should ultimately be cumulated into either of these two wage types. During configuration, you may not need to make entries in this table, unless your enterprise uses other payment wage types that do not cumulate into /102 or /103, but that do need to be included during EEA reporting.
Recommendation
Make sure that any wage types you add here do not cumulate into /102 or /103, otherwise their amounts will be counted twice during EEA reporting.
Activities
Before you initiate configuration, determine whether your enterprise uses additional wage types that need to be included during EEA reporting - namely, taxable wage types that do not cumulate into technical wage types /102 or /103. Then perform the procedure described below.
Execute this step of the Implementation Guide.
On the subsequent screen, highlight the row entitled Employment Equity Act salary cumulation, then select the Wage type buckets icon.
On the screen after that, highlight the row entitled One time payments, then select the Wage type assignment icon.
As appropriate, review and delimit the current assignment of wage types that represent one-time payments and that are cumulated during EEA reporting.
If necessary, select New entries, then specify each additional wage type to be cumulated, along with start and end dates. For wage types whose amounts are to be added to the total, select radio button +. If the amounts in any wage type are to be subtracted from the total, select radio button -.
Save your entries, then return to the previous screen.
Highlight the row entitled Proratable wages, then select the Wage type assignment icon. Repeat steps 3a. through 3c. for the proratable wage types to be cumulated during EEA reporting.
Save your entries, then exit the Implementation Guide.
Further notes
Once configuration is complete, you may choose the following Payroll Canada menu path to execute EEA reporting:
