              KEY: (A)utomatic, (N)on calculate, or leave blank ( )

ACCESS:

From the "Entry of Daily Hours" or "Entry of Weekly Hours" screen.

REGULAR TIME

If the computer has an hourly rate of pay for the employee, the amount of pay will automatically be calculated; otherwise the computer will calculate half the monthly rate of pay for the employee regardless the hours worked in the PAY PERIOD. To override this automatic calculation such as in an employee being sick or a monthly employee taking holidays, you can either enter a negative pay adjustment in the OTHER INCOME area on the pay slip or use the CORRECTION feature.

OVERTIME

For the hourly employee, overtime is calculated by the computer at regular pay time 1.5. For the monthly employee, overtime is calculated at regular hourly pay time 1.5 (the computer determines the hourly pay for a monthly employee, based on the normal yearly hours worked by that employee).

DOUBLE TIME

Double time is calculated at regular pay times 2.

EI PERIOD

The Employment Insurance Period is automatically calculated by the computer. The computer keeps track of the employment weeks on a calendar week basis. This way the computer makes sure that all eligible earnings are insured for the employee. See the EMPLOYEE Information section or CORRECTION section of this manual if an adjustment is needed on the first pay period.

KEY

Entering <A> in this field allows the computer to automatically calculate the pay and deductions without asking for additional information for the employee being processed.

EARNINGS (1), (2) and (3)

These fields are for extra types of pay such as Commissions, Bonuses, Holiday Pay or Non-Taxable amounts.

HP

Holiday Pay must have "HP" in the first two positions of the description field. If "HP" is keyed in without an amount, the Holiday Pay amount will be calculated by the computer and will include any Holiday Pay in the Current PAY PERIOD; if you use the last "EARNINGS" field for this. Care should be taken using this feature, because if the employee is going to take the time off, you should use the hourly entry method of calculating the pay. This will give the employee the correct deductions for Unemployment Insurance and Insurable Weeks. To do this make a separate run and enter zero hours on the hourly entry, then show the Holiday Pay under "EARNINGS".

NT

Non-taxable must have "NT" in the first two positions of the description field.

CO

Commission Income must have "Co" or "CO" in the two positions of the description field.

INCOME TAX

The Income Tax deduction is automatically calculated by the computer, but if you wish to override this feature see under KEY above. If the following message appears on the bottom of the screen:
 
NO PROVINCE STATED IN EMPLOYEE RECORD

The computer will calculate the tax at the highest Provincial Rate. To correct this, use the KEY feature and the Tax Tables for this time and correct the amount deducted. Note the Employee I.D. and when you are able, correct the EMPLOYEE file.

CPP/QPP

The Canada Pension Plan or Quebec Pension Plan deduction is automatically calculated by the computer.

UI

The Unemployment Insurance deduction is automatically calculated by the computer. See EMPLOYEE FILE section or CORRECTIONS section of this manual if an adjustment is needed on the first pay period.

DEDUCTIONS (1), (2), (3), (4), (5), (6), (7) and (8)

These fields are for extra types of deductions such as Pension, Union Dues, or Your Defined Deductions.

PEN

The pension deduction will normally be made by the computer, but if not the Pension deduction must have "Pen" or "PEN" in the first three places of the description field.

UNI

The Union Dues deduction will normally be made by the computer, but if not the Union Dues deduction must have "Uni" or "UNI" in the first three positions of the description field.

QUE

The Quebec Provincial Tax must be looked up in your tables and entered when the description "Quebec Tax" appears.

XXX

Your deduction fields will use the first three digits of the field you defined under the EMPLOYER file.

When you have processed all of the employees, the computer will transfer you to the "PRINTING the PAYSLIPS" screen.
