This report generates the Canadian T4 forms. This is a system report, and does not need to be imported to your database.
The registry options discussed in Registry T4 Print (sys-printer-T4) and Registry T4 Report Defaults must be in place for this report to print properly.
Important: Deduction Record Setup:
In order for Union Dues and Charitable Deductions to correctly print on the T4, the user must populate the field ‘Deduction User 1’ with Dues or Charitable, respectively, and ensure that the Deduction Type is Misc.
Earnings and Deduction Records – Other Information
Canadian T4's use the W2 Category fields in the Deductions & Earnings records to populate the Other Information boxes on the T4. The W2 category must be filled in as OI:(Code # for T4). The Employee User 7 field is used to print the registration number in box 50 on the T4.
This release supports an enhancement to allow Earnings records to be set up with a W2 Category of OI:40 and an Earnings Type of Wage for use in T4 processing.
Box 14: Supports the processing of exempt earnings for the calculation of Employment Income.
Box 20: Enter RPP Contribution amounts using an Earnings Id with the W2 Category set to 20.
