Payroll in Three Clear Steps
From employee setup to filed reports, the workflow is built around how Canadian accountants and bookkeepers already work.
-
01
Quick Setup for Employer
Onboard employees with TD1 forms, configure earnings, deductions, and benefit libraries, then set up pay groups and schedules — all through a guided setup wizard.
-
02
Run Payroll Automatically
Process regular, bonus, off-cycle, or YTD-adjustment runs. CPP, EI, and tax calculations apply automatically, including non-periodic Factor B rules for bonuses.
-
03
Generate Reports & Pay Slips
Export pay statements, the payroll register, CRA remittance summaries, T4 slips, and ROEs — ready for filing, employee delivery, or audit.
Statutory Calculations You Don’t Have to Second-Guess
Every calculation is done as per CRA. CPP correctly applies the basic exemption on periodic runs and skips it for bonus and off-cycle runs (Factor B). CPP-2 kicks in once an employee’s earnings cross the annual pensionable earnings threshold, and EI premiums are computed against current CRA insurable maximums.
- ✓ CPP, CPP-2, EI with prorated YTD limits
- ✓ Federal, provincial and territorial tax brackets
- ✓ Regular, bonus & off-cycle pay runs
- ✓ TD1 amount and percentage overrides
T4 Slips and ROEs, Generated From Your Pay Stubs
Batch-draft T4s from finalized pay stubs for any tax year, with support for Boxes 14 through 55, taxable benefits, RPP, RRSP, union duues, and amendments. ROEs include Block 15A insurable hours, 15B insurable earnings, special payments, and reason codes — with duplicate-check guards and XML export.
- ✓ Batch T4 draft, amendment & cancellation
- ✓ CRA-compliant XML export
- ✓ Service Canada ROE generation
- ✓ Serial number allocation built in

Designed from day one for accounting firms. Switch between clients in a click, run each client’s payroll in its own dedicated workspace, and keep every client’s employees, rates, and remittance schedules fully isolated.
- ✓ Unlimited clients and pay groups
- ✓ Per-client data isolation
- ✓ Sequential pay-run safeguards
- ✓ Fast client switching from your firm account
