What this does
The stub template sets the look of every pay stub, the rule for the PDF password and the words of the stub email.
Steps
- Go to Settings › Stub template.
- Under On the stub, switch on or off:
- Company logo
- Year-to-date column
- Hours and rates
- Vacation pay balance
- What the employer pays on the employee's behalf (CPP, EI, matches)
- Enter the Footer, for example who to call with questions. It can have up to 500 characters.
- Under PDF password, tick Password-protect emailed PDFs and pick the rule Password.
- Under Email, write the Subject and Message.
- Check How the email reads and the sample stub.
- Save.
Placeholders
In the subject and message, use {employee}, {firstName}, {payDate}, {company} and {passwordHint}. If protection is on and the message leaves out {passwordHint}, the hint is added at the end.
Password rules
- Date of birth, DDMMYYYY.
- Date of birth, YYYYMMDD.
- Employee number and birth year.
Good to know
- Changes apply to every stub printed, saved or emailed from now on, reprints included.
- The company logo shows only if a logo is stored in the company file. The app has no screen to add one yet.
- A stub says it is a statement of earnings and not a T4 or RL-1.
- A birth date can be guessed by someone who knows the employee. The protection guards a stub sent to the wrong address.
