Add WCB Employer Contribution Payroll Instructions for a province
1. Select Payroll from the top menu and click on Payroll Setup.
2. Select Add Payroll Instruction from Provider Library.
3. Scroll down to the Employer Contributions section and select the WCB employer contribution payroll instruction relevant to the province(s) of employment of your employees from the list available in the drop-down menu.
By default, the payroll instruction will be set to enabled. Click Save. You have successfully added the employer contribution WCB Payable payroll instruction to your organization.
You can override the default instruction and make changes to the instruction. Once you select the checkbox to override default properties, the following fields will be enabled.
- Schedule: This represents how often you would like the instruction to appear on the input sheet. Most options offer a frequency where the instruction will appear automatically, the option "Occasional" being the one exception - occasional instructions will never appear automatically and must be added to the input sheet manually when required.
- Default Value: If you want a value to auto-populate for all employees who have this instruction, enter that value here. Otherwise 0 will pre-populate unless a default entry has been specified at an employee level.
- Auto-Protect: If this is selected, the values will appear on the input sheet, but will be un-editable. The only way to change values is within the employee profile. We suggest leaving this unselected.
- Input warning limit: If a value is specified here, any amounts entered that go above that value will produce a warning on the "errors/warnings" report available on the results page of a processed pay run.
- Input error limit: If a value is specified here, any amounts entered that go above that value will produce an error on the "errors/warnings" report available on the results page of a processed pay run. Errors must be resolved before a pay run can be approved.
- Sort order: This allows you to sort your payroll instructions on the input sheet - smallest number to the left. More information here.
- Formula: If you want the system to do some math for you before outputting a value, the mathematical formula can be entered. If you need assistance entering formulas, please contact our support team.
