HI Ashton, if there is a difference there had to be either an overpayment to CRA or In between payroll runs there was someone that was paid etc.  If you run a detailed remittance report you should be able to find the amounts you are looking for (the difference) and who it is for. Hope that helps.  

Hi Marj@Swab,

Thank you for your response. I checked the remittance detail and there were no extra pays in between payroll runs, so then I checked the CRA account and turns out there was a slight over payment.

I'm still unsure of how to correct the issue though. Do I still use the detailed remittance? If so, what am I comparing the numbers to? The Employee detail? I'm sorry, I am new to using Sage50. Thanks for your help!

Hi Ashton, if you are sure that you have made an overpayment just reduce your next payment to them and then your remittance will correct itself when you post the payments.  Then you will be back on track.  If you can see the breakdown how much tax, cpp and EI will also be beneficial. 

Marj@Swab I'm not entirely sure if it's from the over payment now. I did make a boo-boo and I cancelled a paycheck for an employee from way back in May recently because he lost it. I made up a new cheque, in the same pay period as his previous cheque was and I think the deduction amounts were slightly different since it showed a difference in the cheque amount by a few dollars. I was rushing and didn't catch it until it was too late. 

It seems this has changed the payroll remittance amounts for every month after that. I can't see the amount column and the balance column on my remittance summary being so greatly different just from a small over payment. 

Morning Ashton, when you cancelled the fist cheque it should of backed out everything including the deductions and then would of put back in the new amounts when you re-run the second cheque.  Can you  tell what the difference is after you take that small amount off?  Can you include a screen shot of your remittance?
