Reports: the list

Every report in the Reports screen, what it shows and who it is for.

What this does

The Reports screen groups reports under Payroll, Employees, Agencies and Accounting. Every report covers approved, paid and filed pay runs. A reversed run and its reversal both appear, so they net to zero. Drafts and calculated runs never count.

Payroll

  • Payroll register. Every pay in the range, employee by employee: earnings, withholdings, net pay and employer costs.
  • Deductions and benefits. Each deduction and benefit by employee, with the employee and employer shares.
  • Employer costs. What payroll cost the company on top of wages: CPP/QPP, EI, QPIP, health tax, WCB and benefits.

Employees

  • Year to date by employee. Each employee's year to date as at a date, checked against the year-to-date ledger. A column says Matches, Differs or Later pays.
  • Vacation liability. Vacation pay earned but not yet paid, as at a date.
  • Payroll summary, Vacation summary and Transaction detail for one employee. These are the quick reports on the employee's Transactions tab. See The Transactions tab and quick reports.

Agencies

  • Remittance history. Remittances to CRA, Revenu Québec, health tax and WCB: due dates, payments and late ones.
  • Liability history. Every remittance payment and adjustment, with method, cheque number and confirmation. See Liability history.
  • WCB assessable earnings. Earnings by location with the annual maximum applied, and the premium they draw.
  • Employer health tax. Payroll subject to employer health tax by province, the exemption, and the tax due.

Accounting

Good to know

  • Department, location and employee filters use the employee's current record, because pay lines do not store where the employee worked at the time.
  • The vacation liability report works from year-to-date earnings, not from the time-off ledger. The journal posts vacation payable from the ledger.
  • The WCB and health tax reports check the annual ceiling and exemption against the rate tables.
