Hi Bethmw ,

Thanks for reaching out. For correcting small amounts of CPP, EI, and Tax accumulated in error without attributing it to one employee, consider using the "Adjust Paycheque" feature in Sage 50. This allows for precise payroll adjustments across multiple employees, ensuring no one's T4 is unfairly affected.

Here's a concise approach:

1. Back Up Data: Always back up your data before making adjustments.
2. Adjust Paycheques: Navigate to Paycheques icon > Payroll Journal > Adjust Paycheque. This lets you distribute the correction across all affected employees. For detailed steps, visit: How to adjust a payroll cheque.
3. Tax Recalculation: Ensure taxes are recalculated during the adjustment to reflect corrections accurately.

For adjusting or reversing payroll remittances, the 'Adjust Remittance' feature simplifies correcting remittance amounts. Review the guidance for reversing and re-entering correct amounts through General Journal entries or the Make Other Payments option. It's crucial to verify remittance reports or year-end summaries for accuracy before CRA submissions. Detailed information is available at: How do I reverse or adjust a payroll remittance payment?

For complex scenarios or further assistance, contacting a Sage certified advisor or customer support is recommended.

Warm Regards,
